EUFAULA, Ala. (March 11, 2010) - Lake Eufaula's bite was reportedly tougher for anglers Thursday, but don't tell the Hults family. A quick check of the field shows a total of four Hults names on the list. After the Day 2 weigh-in, two of those Hults were leading both the pro and co-angler divisions in the FLW Series Eastern Division event. In fact, all four names made the top-10 lists after the second day of fishing. Pro Alan Hults of Gautier, Miss., caught a five-bass limit weighing 19 pounds, 14 ounces Thursday to capture the lead in his pro debut with a two-day catch of 10 bass weighing 43-15.

The equivalent, for an angler, to Lebron James swishing a last-second three-pointer is to land a 5-pounder on the last cast. John Crews of Salem, Va., executed that feat on the California Delta in the grandest of fashions Sunday to score victory at the Duel in the Delta, the Bassmaster Elite Series season-opener.
