Location: Rhinelander | The field of ten left this morning at 6:30 AM under cloudy skies and perfect fishing conditions. Tommy Skarlis said he was hoping for the clouds to help him with the fish he's looking for on the rocks.
The fish should be really going.
Weigh in today begins at 4 PM. Make sure to tune in to FLW Live!

| Congrats, TOMMY!
Great show. Glad to see Rich didn't jinx this one for you again!
I bet if the ranking system was up to date, you'd be #1. | |
