GEICO anglers Christiana Bradley and Teddy Carr moved up the standings in Friday's second day of the Bassmaster Southern Open on the Harris Chain of Lakes in Central Florida.
Bradley gained six spots to finish 51st in the opening Bassmaster Open tournament of 2012, while Carr moved up 12 positions to finish 152nd.
Bradley matched her limit of five fish from Thursday, with Friday's catch weighing 9 pounds, 7 ounces. Her two-day total was 19 pounds, 13 ounces, helping her finish in the top quarter of the field. |

"I found my spot and just stayed with it," Bradley said. "One of the Elite Series pros, David Walker, was back in there with me and we were fishing the same way so that really boosted my confidence. He managed to catch one of the big ones in that area and I didn't, but that's the way it goes.
"I'm fairly happy with the tournament. You always want more. You want to make the money cut, which was just a few spots away (40th place), and you want to make it to the weekend if you can. It's tough. There're almost 200 anglers and only 12 make the weekend."
Bradley has already circled the next Southern Open, which takes place April 5-7 on Lake Norman in North Carolina. |
