Iacnonelli & Walker set the pace

Couple notes from Day 1 on both major tournament tours.

Ike bags giant donkey of a bass, that weighed almost 13lbs to take the lead at Amistad, he also had a fish around 8lbs. Those two fish anchored his 27-09 lb bag. The weights were off as Amistad goes, but still 9 bags over 20lbs. Don’t think anyone will reach a 100lbs this week, but you never know. My fantasy team is middle of the pack, but my lowest guy (Bill Lowen) is in 60th, so I got a good shot of my whole team fishing Day 3 which really helps. Could be doing better if Velvick would have boated fish #5.

David Walker set the bar high on a very cold day 1 at Table Rock. His first keeper of the day was a 7lb 7oz toad largemouth which paved the way to a 26-11 creel. Walker is well on his way to following up his Top 10 finish at Guntersville. Other then walker, Fukae is my only other angler in Top after day 1 but a couple guys are lingering and could make a move today.

You may have noticed I have updated my Blog layout and colors, mainly to fix a problem I had with my posts dropping to the bottom of the page sometimes. Hopefully this is a long term fix!
