Ledge fishing, as predicted, was the deal today, Day 1 at the FLW Tour stop on Chickamauga Lake. Randy Haynes of Counce, TN exploited the pattern best and took a lead of only 1 ounce over Dan Morehead of Paducha, KY.

Rotating through some 20 different spots, Haynes caught about a dozen keepers. He had 3 over five pounds but was stuck with a 3-pounder he just couldn’t cull.

Haynes has already won an FLW event this season – the Tour event at Lake Eufaula.

Without getting into specifics Haynes said he’s just doing what he normally does and that it’s quite crowded where he’s fishing. He thinks this will be a relatively tough tournament considering the quality of bass that swim in Chickamauga these days.

Behind Morehead, Casey Martin has 22-15, good for 3rd place.

Mark Rose is 4th with 22-12.

Bill Day is 5th in a tight field with 22-11. Day caught the day’s biggest bass at 8 pounds, 13 ounces.

The top 10 pros all had over 20 pounds today.

Jason Johnson of Gainesville, GA leads all co-anglers with 19-08.
