With only a few pounds separating the top 20 teams, nearly everyone expects an exciting weigh-in this afternoon. Since the first day's results were so close, even teams not currently in the top 20 have a chance to pull ahead if they bring in a couple of really good fish.

When there are whitecaps on the water before dawn, you know a challenging day of fishing lies ahead. That's exactly what NTC teams faced this morning on the shores of Lake Oahe. Even before the sun cleared the eastern horizon, northwest winds were gusting up to 20 mph.

Any fisherman worth his weight in jigheads will tell you that the best source of information about a lake and what the fish in it are biting on is a local bait shop. That's why my coverage of the 2008 National Team Championship Walleye Tournament took me to the bait store at Bridge City Marina in Indian Creek Recreation Area this morning.
