After the first two days of tracking, Fishie, from Cherokee, is far out in the lead! Coming up in second is Miles from Man-O-War Primary, followed by Master Blaster from Hopetown Primary! In fourth place, Floppy from Agape Christian School, and Jim Richard"s" of Forrest Heights Academy is in fifth place.

The other fish seem to have slept in, not getting the fastest start, but are still in the running; so be sure to cheer on your fish!
