Chuck Murray & Randy Groves Win 2025 CATT Championship on Kerr Lake

The 2025 CATT championship is in the books with 194 teams on their way home. Some with money & some without. But as always, Kerr Lake was unforgiving to a lot of the anglers as well as that much-needed lunker to get them in check range (37 places). Congratulations to the winners who have been so close in the past, Chuck Murray & Randy Groves. Take a listen below on how they won it all & we appreciate if you grab a photo, please tag The Bass Cast for credit. See you all again at next year’s championship or at an event soon.

2026 CATT Academy Championship will be held the 3rd weekend of May at Kerr Lake at the same ramp!

We are looking at adding a 2-day event on the East Coast of North Carolina in 2026 with the same format! Stay tuned!
