Shaw Grigsby started Saturday in the same spot where he fished Friday, but there was much less wind blowing on his favorite main lake point.

Shaw Grigsby, who willingly explained his pattern to nearby spectators Saturday,fires a cast down a line of docks.

It wasn’t like catching fish in a barrel for Kevin VanDam on Saturday.

Kevin VanDam’s milk run included several areas with boat docks.

KVD had to weave through dozens of spectators to move to a new spot.

And they’re off — hot on VanDam’s heels.

At midday, VanDam was still looking for a limit.

Brandon Palaniuk found success in an area with a gently sloping bank, a much different type of bank compared to most of the field.

Brandon Palaniuk was on the move, looking to trade up later in the day.

Brandon Palaniuk spent a long time working over a gravel bank of a peninsula jutting into Horse Creek.

Palaniuk was telling the spectators that this one was a good fish long before he saw it.

Palaniuk gets low to reach for the fish.

Palaniuk was right; it was a good one.

When you’re culling fish like this, it’s probably a good day.

Palaniuk strikes again.

it looks like Palaniuk has hooked into another good fish.

Palaniuk soon realized that this big one wasn’t the right species.

Unfortunately for Palaniuk, drum don’t count in the Bassmaster Classic.

Brandon Palaniuk shares a laugh with a pair of landlocked spectators.

Mike Iaconelli (far left) had quite an armada of spectators. At one point Saurday, there were more than 70 followers.

Kevin VanDam had his own sizable flotilla.

When its as cold as it has been on Grand Lake, ice forms on your line guides. Shaw Grigsby fixed the problem by giving the rod a quick dip.

Shaw Grigsby apparently doesn’t believe that bananas on a boat are bad luck.

For the second consecutive day, Shaw Grigsby’s entourage included “Camp Chair Man.”

If you want to be like Ike, you can’t be bothered by the crowds.
