Congrats to our PAC Bass Anglers yesterday as they tackled the cold weather on the Cooper River. All four of our teams caught fish but didn’t quite have enough to make the top 3. Good job guys for sticking it out in the cold, windy temps.

We will fish again on March 14th at our home lake - Lake Murray. Let’s go!
