Well we had our 4th Qualifier of the ALTEC Guaranteed $7000.00 Trail last Saturday.
We had 50 boats show up and test the stingy Kerr Lake as of lately. We want to start off by saying THANK YOU to everyone that came out and fished with us Saturday!! The old lake fished fairly well for the most part from the consistency of the weights brought in. Weather was even pretty good!
There was alot of big hitters on Kerr Lake show up on Saturday for their chance at the top prize.
One of those big hitters teams was the team of Jeff & Clay Ross. I knew when they signed up Saturday they would definitely be a team to contend with. They didn’t disappoint either! They made it 2 for 2 with the 5 Alive Team Trail. They have fished 2 of the our events and Won both of them. Their batting a %1000.
They brought in a 5 fish limit weighing 15.90 pounds. That bag earned them a total of $2195.00 Great job guys!! They are definitely a great team and a great couple of guys also. Well deserved!
They were followed by the team of Chrisman and Gilbert. They had a 5 fish limit weighing 15.61 pounds. That earned them a total of $1250.00 First time Mr. Denny Gilbert has fished with us and he made a statement. Good job guys!! Glad to have yall fishing with us!
BIG FISH was Won by the team of Kenneth Dixon & Pete Tuck . They had a 4.90 pound fish that earned them $500.00
Big Congratulations to all of the teams that placed in the money!
I want to say THANK YOU to all of our 2024 sponsors! Without them this Trail would not happen. BIG THANK YOU to ALTEC for being our title sponsor for 2024.
Definitely want to say THANK YOU to my wife Krystal Kirby Sheppard , Jessica Turner Byrd & Chris Byrd for all of thier help. I hope they love it enough to continue because this ol FAT BOY Definitely can’t do it alone.
