Mike fishing finesse and power techniques to land in 5th place after day 1. FLW Outdoors quotes Ike, "On my very first cast, I caught a 2-pounder; it was crazy." "Any time you catch a limit on the Three Rivers, you ought to be proud. I worked all day to catch what I did, and I was fortunate to get three quality fish." Ike caught a limit, but caught 20 fish to find 5 keepers.
