After working a square bill crankbait down a rocky bank with no luck, Matt Arey picked up a shakey head and whirled it under the backend walkway of a dock sitting up out of the water.
No sooner did his cricket settle down, the Toyota Pro set the hook on this 2-12 which allowed him to give a lineburner back to the Coosa River fishery.
With a 1-6 still in his Ranger livewell, Arey has an opportunity to make another significant upgrade to his day and make a serious charge to Championship Monday.
