#QC1000 2019 event 2 presented by Southern Bell “Selling the South” TM Charlotte Realtors was amazing. 71 anglers came out to fish a pre spawn Lake Hickory. Pre fishing reports were mixed, along with constantly changing weather patterns, who knew what to expect. The lake was almost full pool, which was a welcome site for fisherman. The weather didnt drop as predicted, and the lake cleared up big time. What did that mean for the fishing? Well…..22 of 71 anglers weighed in a limit, with two anglers over 70 inches, and a massive would be 22.5 inch big bass, penalized for 22inches. Also a 21.75, and multiple 21s weighed in. I would say the lake fished well for most.
We launched at 730am, along side two LARGE boat events, one from Oxford, one from Wittenburg. Weigh in was 4pm, only 10 min from the lake so anglers had a few extra minutes to fish. When it was all said and done, Mark Wilkins weighed in a 71.25 bag and took home the $1000 first place! Congrats! Brad Cox continued his hot streak with ANOTHER second place finish, taking home over $500. Mike Little shows up with 3rd place, banking $352.
