    It would make be bear down even more...pressures off, got 5, look for the big ones. Somebody has to win, might as well be me. I think there would be more pressure if I had NO fish...and more pressure on Day 2 to duplicate/validate day 1 results...

    I'd be stoked. Before Day 2 blast-off is when I'd be crapping my pants.

    I'd keep my head hi, look for biggens. Maybe even do a little fish locating if I had a sack that I thought was going to keep my in contention

    Keep fishing and KNOW the odds weren't good for me to stay ahead.
    Not get my hopes up. Take it as it comes. Happy anyway it goes.

    Re: what would you do (haveme1)

    Keep fishing my fins off.
    The fish will let me know if I need to adjust.
    Oh, and pray the fish in the live well stay alive.

    What I would do is more of the same. What I wouldnt do is anything stupid. I also would make sure I get back in on time.

    Re: what would you do (mattmann7)

    Not pay attention to the leader board and stick to my game plan. Can't control what the others are doing, so I would not want to do anything stupid and shoot myself in the foot.

    Re: what would you do (greendragon)

    i would go looking for the biggun's and make sure to not overfish my first spot. i don't think it would hit me until that night in the hotel room then the nightmares of kvd trying to chase me down would keep me up all night.

    Also try to keep a low profile and keep the money baits out of sight.
