Big bites rolling in

It appears as though we’re in the middle of one of those special feeding windows as day one of competition dwindles down.

Ed Loughran III just dropped a bomb on the leaderboard with the second biggest bass of the day, a 7-14. He’s now one of the 6 anglers with estimated bags over 20- pounds.

Cody Huff also added a 4-4 at 2:31, just minutes ago, to move into 7th. Clifford Pirch boated a 7-6 at 2:14. David Fritts caught his biggest bass of the day, a 4-4, just under an hour ago. And Skylar Hamilton boated a 6-0 at 2:35.

The fishing is definitely heating up. The first flight is due in at 3:30 Eastern, just under an hour from now. But the later flights have nearly two hours to go. Expect more movement late.
