Gray, Massey take lead at DeGray
Bismarck, Ark. — North Carolina anglers Brandon Gray and Todd Massey had never seen DeGray Lake before this week but found a few clues in practice to have a solid start on the first day of the Toyota Bonus Bucks Bassmaster Team Championship.
Massey said their practice went “not real well”, and he was surprised they caught five fish weighing 14 pounds, 2 ounces to move into first place today. “We found some spots (in practice) that had some fish but we never really beat them to see what was there,” said Massey. “Today, we just started picking those spots and tried to dissect them from there. We bounced around a couple of times but kind of stayed in the same general area.”
The North Carolina anglers caught fish in both deep and shallow water. “I think the fish are scattered,” Massey said. “There are some fish shallow and there are some fish deep. So you can fish whatever style you prefer to fish.”
