2:00pm - All anglers are back. Score cards are being cross checked against their app entries. Final results soon!
12:55pm - The gap at the top of the leaderboard is closing in. Shane Wolhuter just upgraded and is now only 80g behind leader Blake O'Grady. There's 1hour 5mins left in the session.
12:20pm- More movement at the top of the leaderboard. Shane Wolhuter has jumped into second place, only 230g behind first placed Blake O'Grady.
11:50am - It's been a little quite the last hour on the scoreboards. Blake O'Grady has just logged his fourth fishing of the day putting him back into first place approx 300g ahead of Jamie McKeown. Just over two hours of fishing time left.
10:30am - More limits on the scoreboard. Jamie McKeown has taken the lead with a five fish limit for the day taking him to an event total of 10/10 for 5.777kg. Puts him ahead of Blake O'Grady who still only has three today for an event total of 8/10 for 5.699kg. It's getting interesting.
8:50am - Five anglers out of the eleven have recorded their limits for the day. Blake O'Grady's lead is narrowing but he only has 2/5 of his fish for the day so far with plenty of time left to get the job done.
7:45am - Blake O'Grady further extends his lead with a nice first bream landed for the day registering just under a kilo.
7:30am - A few early catches coming through today. Looks like Darren 'Dizzy' Borg will be the first with a limit this morning.
7:00am - A perfect morning at Cleveland for the Start of Session 2 of the 2021 Samaki BREAM Queensland Open, all eleven anglers are headed back out on to Moreton Bay to find five more big bream.
