From the air: 57 great photos

From the air: 57 fabulous photos, from our helicopter, of the final day on Bull Shoals. Shot by Mike Suchan. Here’s a sample, and you can see the rest of...

A little too much wind

Britt Myers wished for wind to turn on the bass in Bull Shoals, but he got a little more than he asked for in East Sugarloaf Creek. When the wind picked up about an hour ago, big white caps started rolling right down the pipe.

Wind has picked back up

The wind has picked up with a vengeance. It's blowing in the 20 mile per hour range at the moment and shows no sign of letting up.

Wind picks up, fish activity too

Britt Myers has seen several indications that the fishing on Bull Shoals Lake today is going to be more like it was Thursday and Friday than on the slower day that came with the cold front Saturday.

Update from BASSTrakk: a fast start

Results from the water are rolling in. Two anglers already with limits. Britt Myers, who is sitting at number two, has 13 pounds, and is off to a fast start....

Myers cranking a little deeper

Unlike most of the Elite Series anglers in this tournament, Britt Myers has been fishing a bit further off the bank this week. He's targeting water in five to 12 foot depths.

Palaniuk adds third fish

Palaniuk has added his third fish. He now has about 4 1/2 pounds, which requires Myers to catch 17 pounds or better to catch him. That's possible. A few more keepers though and Palaniuk could be cursing.

Bobby Lane has two in the livewell

Bobby Lane has quickly added his first two keepers of the day. They weigh a collective four pounds. While he probably can't catch Palaniuk, you can bet he has his sights set on over-taking Myers. He wants the points, and the extra cash. Myers, though, isn't going down easily he has the big bag of the first hour or two with 13 pounds and may be on cruse control. Lane wants to make a move, he needs to get some of the 3- to 4-pound or better fish to bite.
