Event 3 Lake Wateree Presented by US Tree Climbers

Crazy day on Lake Wateree. We all questioned what she would give up in April since we always fish it mud summer. Well….What if I told you 68 inches didn’t win cash!! WOW. This was the first Queen City Kayak Bass FishingPlastic Navy Kayak Anglers joint event. It was flawless. We had 86 anglers come play in South Carolina. What a great crowd. Kids from HS fished, and their Coach/Teacher joined as well! We raised the payouts today and #qc1000 turned into #qc1300. In the main event today we also had the QC vs PNKA 10v10 showdown. I think Cam and I realized this showdown may have caused more harm than good in the fishing community and we both agree this would be the final round. QCKBF did get the Win by 148 inches. Ryan Hulsey anchored QC and won the $200 side pot. For the people who watch but have never joined us, we all talk trash, we all fish hard, we all want to win, but in the end we are all friends and shake hands, and hug. We don’t need a 10v10 ruining that.

The day started off with the worst fog we had ever seen. 30ft vis maybe. Without gps on your fish finder, almost impossible to launch. The weather stayed mostly cloudy, slight drizzle on and off, and then the sun poked out later. Fish were caught on a variety of baits today. Some bed fisherman did well, some avoided beds at all cost, some parts of the lake had no beds. Very interesting lay of the lake today. When it was all said and done we met at Gadgets of Lugoff for the award ceremony. Cameron Tetterton pulled it out!! Trash talking home lake boy walks up with the biggest smile weighing in 73.75inches!!! Huge victory for the Admiral, taking home the US Tree Climbers #1300. Ryan Hulsey snatched 2nd place with 73in, and side pot money, and Commish side pot money for a total of $995. Not bad!! Fat Larrytakes home 3rd place with 72 inches worth $480!
