Gerald Swindle fires the first big shot of day two, with a Phoenix Big Bass contender worth 7-0. Swindle is likely casting something in the stickbait to swimbait arena, judging by the shallow sparse vegetation behind him. But for all we know there’s a thick mat he could have punched this good one out of off to the left or right. Both are great techniques to catch a big one on Okeechobee right now.
Either way, it’s a great start for the two-time Progressive Angler of the Year.
