CONROE, Texas – The Championship 10 anglers left the Lakeview Marina launch in Conroe, Texas this morning with seven hours to prove that their best spots, patterns and techniques were good enough to earn them the champion’s trophy at the Bass Pro Tour Huk Stage Two Conroe presented by Favorite Fishing.

12:24 p.m. CT – No change at the top of the SCORETRACKER. Edwin Evers continues to dominate with 30 pounds, 7 ounces. Jeff Sprague has missed a couple of fish that he thinks have really cost him. He is now 8-1 back of Evers in second place. Watch out for Jordan Lee. A 5-4 has moved him into fourth place just 8-7 back of Evers.

11:01 a.m. CT – Edwin Evers remains the man to beat. He is having success along the banks for Lake Conroe. David Walker has made a move to try and catch up to Evers. He reeled in a 4-8 to move to within 8-8 of the leader. After a slow first period, Jordan Lee has started to figure something out moving from last to fifth place.

10:13 a.m. CT – Lines are about to go in for Period 2 but after one period it’s Edwin Evers’ day. He has reeled in 13 bass for 23 pounds, 11 ounces to put himself comfortably in first place. Jeff Sprague is in second place, 9-8 back of Evers. Stage One winner Jordan Lee has struggled this morning with only 2-12 in the first period.

So far, Edwin Evers is the man to beat: Less than two hours into the morning, Evers has already added eight fish and 14 pounds, 13 ounces to SCORETRACKER. The closest to him is Randall Tharp with 10-8.

Live, official scoring will continue until the end of competition at 3:30 p.m CT, and the MLF NOW! live cameras go on at 10 a.m. Don’t miss a minute, the day is shaping up to be a memorable one!
