Hamilton thriving in the noon hour

Skylar Hamilton had only one bass in the boat at high noon, and he caught it at 9 a.m. But Hamilton’s day has shifted into another gear. He’s caught three keepers since noon, including the latest, a 4-12. He’s now inside the top 20 on BASSTrakk with four bass weighing 10-12.

The 25-year-old angler from Dandridge, Tenn., is fishing his second Bassmaster Classic.
