GALLERY: One Catch Could Make All the Difference for Ott DeFoe and David Walker

SPRING CITY, Tenn. – A lightning delay to start the day gave way to a race to the top of SCORETRACKER®, where one catch could mean an automatic berth to the Championship Round for several of the MLF pros on Watts Bar Lake. Meanwhile, there’s plenty of movement around the Toro Cut Line at the General Tire Stage Five Presented by Covercraft.

With one period left to go on Tuesday, Ott DeFoe leads the way with 21 bass weighing 37 pounds even. Hot on his heels are Bryan Thrift with 35-13, David Walker with 35-11, and Clabion Johns with 33-12.

DeFoe had the most productive day so far with 13 bass weighing 23-0, but his hot streak slowed down since 10 of his catches came in Period 1 for 16-13.
