The three top contenders in the 2022 Progressive Angler of the Year race are all currently in the top 5 here on Pickwick according to BassTrakk. Brandon Lester and Brandon Palaniuk have been hanging around at the top of the leaderboard all day, but John Cox has just rammed his way right up in there amongst them with a 5- pounder to bring his Day 2 total up to 18- pounds, 4- ounces.
None of these guys are conceding anything here at the 6th stop of the Bassmaster Elite Series. This is going to be a fun race to watch.
