Finally on the board! He has been grinding, but switched areas and hopefully onto something now.

Canterbury’s 6th fish added about a pound to his total weight. He’s staying committed to his game plan, and has the second half of the day to make more culls.

Jesse Tacoronte was glad to get number three in the boat! He said everything is different from yesterday and the bite is much slower.

With #5 in the boat, Jay Yelas has filled out his limit and knows its time to begin to upgrade his catch now. The Skeeter Livewell has 5 Lake Lanier spots in it. We had a couple of spectator boats pull up just now, stay a minute, and leave. “They pull up and check BASSTrakk,” said Yelas. “If you’re not leading or up near the top, they take off and leave. They want to find the leaders.”

“The little guys are biting this morning,” says Yelas. The 2003 Bassmaster Angler of the Year has four fish in the livewell and looking to close out a limit before moving after the larger bits to upgrade.
