The big bite didn't seem to be on at Grand today but with the 12" min length limit everyone that weighed in weighed limits. Smallest limit was 9.66 lbs. There was a tie for 2nd place at 10.76# the old tie breakers use to be by biggest bass but after a quick rules verification Tournament Director Travis Burch called to tell TJ Martin and Steve Vann the good news. Also punching thier ticket tied with TJ and Steve was Curtis Heintz and Bryan Jackson weighing the same weight but with the largest bass of the day of #4.23.
