“Scottie’s in the lead, baby!”

The headline above is a quote from Scott Rook after he landed his fifth fish of the day, a 3-pounder, he called, “Line-stretchin’ Gretchen.” Rook’s excitement is understandable, especially after zeroing yesterday. He’s come back from a 6-pound, 13-ounce deficit to Fred Roumbanis to take the lead today. Rook now has 10-14 to Roumbanis’ 9-9 at the halfway point of this afternoon’s three-hour session.
