    An increase in wind speed from pre-fishing earlier in the week played havoc for many of the anglers on Rainy Lake during Day 1 of the Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship yesterday.
    But for the local team of Darren Ward and Sean Good, the condition changes ended up playing right into their favour as they jumped to the top of the table following the first day of fishing, with their five bass weighing in at 19.61 pounds.
