780x600 ej5c4778 bass-seigo saito> Day 1: 5, 13-00 Dean Rojas fished areas on Friday that he thought would harbor above-average fish. While they still might, he didn’t encounter any on day 1.

“You always try to improve on what you did in previous years,” he said. “I just never had a big bite today. If I would’ve had a 5-pounder, I’d be right up there. It just didn’t happen.”

He caught eight keepers and planned to start day 2 where he finished day 1 – the back of a pocket where the water temperature had climbed to 46 degrees and produced two 3-pounders.

“It’s not like it’s the glory out there,” he added. “It’s hard.”
