Zaldain still in search of first keeper

Chris Zaldain caught the biggest bag of the tournament yesterday with 21-12. Today at 1:00 he’s sitting at zero. Zaldain expected his bite to turn on about 10:30, but it has not. We’ve seen him catch a couple of short fish, but that’s it. “It’s brutal with less current today,” he told us. Zaldain is now trying different spots. He ran down to the canal that connects Tellico to Fort Loudoun. That stretch had plenty of current, but again no bites. Now he has moved back into Loudoun. He has a 40 minute run back to the ramp in Knoxville, which gives him about two hours of fishing time left.
