GALLERY: Qualifying Round countdown underway on Toledo Bend

MANY, La. – When Group B pulled out of Toledo Bend on Wednesday, Dustin Connell topped SCORETRACKER® with 27 bass weighing 81 pounds, 14 ounces and essentially already had a Knockout Round qualification in the bag at B&W Trailer Hitches Stage One Presented by Power-Pole. Even with the freedom to explore and prepare, Connell continued to catch ’em and soon surpassed the 100-pound mark.

Meanwhile, tensions remained high among the other 39 anglers vying for spots in the Top 10 to advance to tomorrow’s Knockout Round. Mark Daniels Jr. started the day in eighth place and hovered around the cut line for much of the morning, but a productive noon hour gave the Alabama angler some breathing room as the day progressed.

Take a look at some of the action during Group B’s second qualifying day, and be sure to tune in to the MLFNOW! livestream on MajorLeagueFishing.com and the MyOutdoorTV (MOTV) app now through Feb. 4 from 7:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. CT.
