Tournament #4 is in the books! We had our away tournament of the season this past weekend on the Lake Harris chain of lakes. Not the best turnout of the this season, with 7 boaters, but 4 of our co-anglers did show up!! Thanks to all who came out and participated!

Finding fish did prove to be challenging, but some were able to figure it out!

Let's congratulate JJ Trotman for his dominating performance! Leading both days! He ended the weekend with a 10 pound lead, 32.33lbs.

Second place goes to Chris Smith who had a solid two days, ending with a 22.98lbs sack.

Third place goes to our newest member and the son of one of our longtime members, Charlie Wills had a two day total of 16.89lbs.

Big fish goes to another new member and son of another fishing legend, Leon Roy 6 had big fish of the tournament with a 5.33lbs hawg! These youngsters will be forces to be reckoned with!
