The leader after the opening day of the Arkansas Big Bass Bonanza is maintaining his lead after the second day went in the books, but the margin became a little smaller. Billy Holeman, Jr., of Camden weighed in a 6.03-pound bass Friday at the Pine Bluff pool of the Arkansas River, but Chris Tucker of Russellville was able to catch a 6.01-pounder in the Russellville pool on Saturday.
There is also a new leader in the North Little Rock pool. John Faucett brought in a fish weighing 5.39 pounds.
The leaders in the other two pools remain the same. Blake Anschultz caught a 5.95-pound bass Friday in the Dumas pool, and Ashley Whitman has a 5.28-pounder in the Fort Smith pool.
There was also no lead changes in either of the youth divisions. Scout Echols leads grades 9 through 12 at 5.54 pounds. Bryson Ridenour leads the the 6th through 8th grade group at 2.3 pounds.
