Event 4 Lake Hartwell Presented by AirOne Heating & Air

We had a great day today down in Visit Anderson SC!! AirOne Heating and Air brought us back for another round on Lake Hartwell, and we brought the Peach State Kayak Anglers with us! We had 148 anglers fish in some amazing weather today. We had a great venue at the Hilton Garden Inn of Anderson and Neil Paul made sure us kayak guys and gals, were very well taken care of! I love coming down here not only as an angler, but also a director. We are already planning 2023!

I had a feeling that the fishing should be on fire today, and for once, I was right. We had 531 fish come through TourneyX.com, and anglers reporting catching between 20-40 fish all day long. Report of large wolfpacks up shallow containing 5 pounders, and huge spots out deep over points and ledge’s made for anglers catching big bags today! Before we get into the full recap I want to thank every person who is involved with Queen City Kayak Bass Fishing. The amazing sponsors for keeping us the best paid club around. The sponsors for filling the table. About 60 anglers went home with a prize today. My team, both on site, and behind the curtains. You all for fishing. EVERYONE!

We had a battle at the top today, and a few different lead changes for Big and Small bass. It was fun to judge and keep my thumb on the pulse of the lake as the standings shifted. When it all wrapped up, we had 82 limits, only 18 skunks. Mr. Ste JJ Heu from GA takes home the crown and $2015! He had 78.25 inches today. Only 1 inch behind him, Jay Park takes home the Lumina Sun Smart Home second place spot worth $1255! Taking home the Academy Sports + Outdoors Elite Side Pot, and 3rd place, Chris Goodwin with 74.25, worth a total of $2167. Mark Glende has a solid day and lands in 4th place with 73.25 worth $837, plus $50 for being the highest finisher in a Native Watercraft! Travis Dockins signs up late last night and rounds out the top 5 with 72.75 inches, earning him $565. Landon Smith sticks a tank and finishes in 6th with 72.50inches, worth $460, plus takes home the Emerald School of Excellence Big Bass with a 22.75 monster! Congrats! Bryce Beyer, part of BRYCE and WES Fishing has a killer day, landing in 7th with 70.50, taking home $366! Silent favorite, Joseph Gayton lands in 8th with 70.25, and walks away with $303.
