There will be plenty of 20-pound bags this week at the Harris Chain. But Jake Whitaker took first-to-20 on Day 1 with this 4-pound, 14-ounce largemouth at 10:25. The 2018 Elite Series Rookie of the Year from Fairview, N.C., has got two other 4-pounders in his livewell and a total of 20-8, according to BassTrakk.
