Sunday, September 20 – 10:35 AM

Today’s conditions are presenting blue bird skies and textbook post frontal weather.  This presents a scenario where finesse techniques could be a real key to getting bites.  The Berkley Hit Worm Magnum is one great Powerbait MaxScent soft plastic to keep any eye on as the day progresses.  It possesses a finesse profile that big fish will absolutely fall for.

One of our camera crew members recently pulled up on an Adrian College team that caught a 4 pound class fish.  It will take one pushing nearly five pounds to overtake the lead.  We will see how it fares when they make their way to weigh-in today.

Anglers are allowed to use only Berkley baits during competition today.  One bait that is seeing a lot of action is the Power Swimmer.  Some anglers received these as part of their swag bags at the beginning of this weekend’s event.
