Moody reported catching all of his fish off of one point in the upper part of the lake on a carolina-rig. Cox caught his fish flipping shallow flooded bushes.

These anglers are acquiring valuable points to insure their birth in the division's two-day champion, scheduled for September 11-12 and the American Fishing Tour National Championship that will be held October 6-8, 2010. Their points are also being used to determine the divisional angler of the year, who will represent the division in the Angler of the Year final round on October 2, 2010. Also up for grabs is the coveted title of D126 Champion, awarded to the angler who has accumulated the most points overall within Division 126. That person will receive a plaque as well as a package of prizes donated by Eagle Claw Tackle, Ben Minor Marine, Albers Marine, Fitzwater Jigs, Rogers Hunting & Fishing, and Lake Stockton Mini-Mart.
