Ike Moves Up to 4th Place at Bassmaster Elite Series Event

Today the field was cut to the top 50. Iaconelli moved into 4th, with a solid bag of 24lbs. 8oz. After Saturday's weigh-in the field will be cut again to the top 12. Ike is currently less than a pound behind day 1 and 2 leader Steve Kennedy.

Many believe that by Sunday hosts of fish could move up onto beds, resulting in more plentiful 30lb. bags. Ike said on Friday that he'd been using power finesse techniques, covering a lot of water with finesse lures and some new Berkley lines.
