Keith Poche runs into his backwater area on Saturday during the Bassmaster Classic.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0103.jpg)
![<p>
The number of stumps he runs around is a good indicator of how shallow and stumpy his trek is.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0108.jpg)

David Walker throws up his arms as he arrives at his first area Saturday.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0122.jpg)
![<p>
Not long after Walker arrives, he hooks into his first keeper.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0142.jpg)
![<p>
He fights the jumping fish.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0143.jpg)
![<p>
Then jerks the fish toward the boat.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0144.jpg)
![<p>
It clears the gunwales and becomes his first keeper of the day.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0145.jpg)

The fish wasnât a giant, but a good start.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0146.jpg)

Davy Hite slowly works his boat along a stretch of matted hyacinth.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0252_0.jpg)
![<p>
And quickly lands a small keeper.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0295.jpg)

Poche culls not far from Hite.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0327.jpg)

Poche fishes behind Hite in an area the two anglers are sharing.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0343.jpg)

Poche hooks up with a fish.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0350.jpg)
![<p>
The fish jumps as he cranks.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0353.jpg)
![<p>
But with a big leap, comes unbuttoned. Notice Pocheâs rod standing straight up.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0354.jpg)
![<p>
Poche quickly turns while the cameraman continues to videotape the jumping fish.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0355.jpg)
![<p>
A moment later he screams in disgust and gets back to fishing.</p>](http://www.bassmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/1IMG_0356_0.jpg)
