Top 5 Patterns from the Cup Day 1After day one of the Forrest Wood Cup on Lake Ouachita, several things have come to light. For one, this event is not likely to produce a runaway win for anyone like it did when Scott Martin won here in 2011. Second, when the pros said Ouachita was going to be stingy, they meant it - only 29 of the 50 pros checked in limits today. Third, firm patterns are hard to come by on Lake Ouachita in August.
Jacob Wheeler took the lead on day one in the event that's presented by Walmart and hosted by Visit Hot Springs and the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism. With the help of a 5-pound bass, Wheeler weighed in a limit of 16 pounds, 2 ounces, but he had to sample a lot of different areas for his catch.
Here's how the rest of the top five got it done.
