Photo: Shaye Baker - Most are glad to see clear skies on Day Two, though some worry the post-frontal conditions will make the fish hard to catch. Photo: Shaye Baker - Daytona State College heads out on Day Two in second place. Starting 7-11 behind the leader, they have a lot of ground to make up.

Photo: Shaye Baker - Daytona State College anglers Thomas Oltorik and Scott Heaberlin start to climb the long hill to knock off Bethel. Photo: Shaye Baker - Though DSC caught most of their fish on Day One flipping, the weather on Day Two inspired them to make the switch to lipless crankbaits. Photo: Shaye Baker - Heaberlin sets up.
Photo: Shaye Baker - Not the size they are going to need to compete with Bethel, but this one is a solid start. Photo: Shaye Baker - Heaberlin unlatches the lipless crank from his catch. Photo: Shaye Baker - A closer look at DSCâs lipless crankbait.
Photo: Shaye Baker - Clean your crank. Ripping lipless cranks through vegetation doesnât always get the grass off. A quick smack on the water between casts usually does the trick. Photo: Shaye Baker - Oltorik fires away again in search of a Harris Chain giant.
