Hot springs, Ark. (May 28, 2010) - Boater Troy Morrow of Toccoa, Ga., caught a five bass limit weighing 16 pounds, 6 ounces Friday to capture the lead at the 2010 BFL All-American presented by Chevy on DeGray Lake. With a two-day catch of 10 bass weighing 30-2, he holds a commanding 4-pound, 12-ounce lead over his closest competitor, Tee Watkins of East Point, Ky., heading into the final day of competition.

“Things are going pretty good, but I am still losing some of those kicker fish and I just can’t let that happen tomorrow,” said Morrow, who is representing the Savannah River Division and fishing in his second BFL All-American. “I am covering a lot of water and let’s just say I am not fishing the shore.”

Not to jinx himself Morrow remained very close-mouthed about his style and baits used, however, he did indicate that he is doing a couple of different things that are giving him an edge and keeping him in the hunt. He is concerned that the expected higher-than-normal holiday boat traffic on the lake tomorrow may impact his fishing, but said he would just have to work through it.

Tee Watkins of East Point, Ky. caught a two-day total of eight bass weighing 25-6 to jump from 13th place to advance to the final round as the No. 2 seed.

The remaining top-10 boaters who will fish the final day at DeGray Lake are:

3rd: Richie Eaves, Nauvoo, Ill., 10 bass, 22-1

4th: Brandon Palaniuk, Rathdrum, Idaho, nine bass, 21-14 Continue Reading »
