[print_link]

Bobby Clark, of MacClesfield, NC won the AFT Division 17, North Carolina Central tournament on the Chowan River.  The event was held on Chowan on 21 July 2018, launching out of the Highway 13 Ramp (Shoups Landing) in Winton, North Carolina.  It was a wet rainy day from start to finish with the river super high and the water way back in the woods.  But Bobby Clark figured out the pattern by catching an impressive limit of fish.  Bobby caught 5 bass weighing 16.85 lbs.  Bobby said he caught his fish on crank baits down river.  Congratulation Bobby.  Mike Roberson of Battleboro, NC took 2nd place honors with 14.48 lbs and had big fish of the tournament with a huge 7.19 pounder.
