Day 1 On Toledo Bend

Chris Pace jumps out to an early lead

MANY, La.– Chris Pace has jumped out to an early 10 ounce lead on Toledo Bend after the first day.

Behind him, rounding out the top three, are Denny Brauer and Brandon Palaniuk. Pace, of course, is happy with his early results, yet cannot sit back and become comfortable.

He credits hard practice for his early success.

It is interesting to note that this is the second consecutive weekend with a tournament on Toledo Bend—last weekend saw a FLW Tour event. Going forward for the rest of the tournament, it will be interesting to see what type of affect this type of fishing pressure and boat traffic has on the quality of the fishing.

Here is the rundown of the top 3 after the first day:

  1. Chris Pace- 23 pounds, 2 ounces
  2. Denny Brauer- 22 pounds, 8 ounces
  3. Brandon Palaniuk- 21 pounds, 2 ounces

Check back tomorrow for the results of Day 2.

See ya on the water…
