Event 5 Lake Wylie presented by Rusty Hooks Bait and Tackle

Posted by Vinny Ferreri on

Lake Wylie comes through for the club when we needed it!! Our smallest event with 81 anglers, mother nature scared a bunch off. We judged the most fish for 2021 today with 310 submitted by the smallest field. We had 50 limits, and only 7 skunks. Thank you Rusty Hooks Bait and Tackle for supporting the club and sponsoring the event!

Many anglers reported catches of 40+ fish and plenty of good size fish came through. The weather was perfect for the first 3 hours, and then the rain kicked in and never let up with extreme downpour from 12-1. No lighting and no wind kept the fishing good!!

When a bunch of soggy anglers left the water at 2pm, Tim Thao takes home the first place win with 72 inches. Timmy goes home with $1250!
Only 1 inch behind Tim, Tj Worrell takes home 2nd place with 71 inches worth $700.
The Commish figures out fishing for a day and lands in third place with 67.5 inches and takes home the Elite Side Pot for a total of $1168.
