The Cashion Fishing Rods ‘End of Year’ Team Tournament Bass Fishing Trail Qualifier #3 at Falls Lake produced another good crowd with 37 teams showing up at the ramp. The weather for summer fishing was great. The winds were light & variable, the air temps ranged from 74 to 89 and the water level was about normal pool at 251.5′. Surface water temps averaged 85 warm degrees! Looks like the Summer fishing has set in for good and the fishing has gotten a little tough! We did manage a few good bags in the heat, however!!
KC Choosakul & Tim Penhollow managed to catch 5 bass weighing 21.67 lbs to take 1st Place, 1st Place TWT and 2nd Place Big Fish (5.81 lbs.) for a total of $1,817 in prize money!
Coming in very close to 1st Place was the 2nd Place team of Robyn Cook and Owen Penhollow with 5 bass weighing 21.33 lbs. They also won 2nd place TWT and 1st Place Big Fish (6.23 lbs.) to take home a total of $1,321. The 3rd Place Team of Terry & Hunter Collins landed 5 bass weighing 18.93 lbs. and and won a total of
$444.Kevin Farley & John Darr weighed in the smallest weight with 1 fish weighing 1.76 lbs. and won $100 in cash compliments of Minn Kota sales & repair specialist Mark Nelson with Triangle Trolling Motor in Raleigh.
