The bugs were crazy out on Lake Erie today as a hatch took off in calm, warm conditions. The bite held, and the ‘Erie Shuffle’ happened as predicted to the leader board.

Doc Samson remained extremely consistent with a CRR total of 62.91 today, enough with yesterday’s total to take over first place by nearly 7 pounds and 122.89 pounds total over Charles Robinson, who weighed almost exactly what he did yesterday to take over second at 114.95.

Third is Mark Martin literally ounces behind Robinson. Fourth is Keith Kavajecz with another consistent performance, fifth is Mike Zaborski with a giant weight of over 64 pounds today, sixth is Jim Carroll, taking a 60 pound CRR weight to the stage, Mike Gofron slipped to seventh, eighth is Scott Duncan, ninth is Mike Robertson, and..

Chase Parsons WHACKED the walleyes today breaking an all time AIM record, CRRing 65.35 pounds to jump from near last to tenth. This is truly an amazing fishery, and the talent out there displayed by the Pros competing in the 2012 AIM Lorain tournament is showcasing what can only be described as WORLD class trophy walleye angling.

It’s a guarantee the leader board will get another thorough shaking tomorrow.

The field will leave at 7:30 AM tomorrow, returning at 3:30 and weighing in at 5:00 sharp Eastern, 4 Central at www.aimfishing.com.
