Tournament #3 of the Foundations Xperts Kerr Trail is in the books.
We had 27 teams show up last Sunday to do one of the 2 things. Either catch fish or sit in Nature’s Sauna and sweat all day. As for me, I spent more time in the Sauna than I did catching fish! IT WAS A HOT ONE!!
Actually, the fish bit fairly well, and as always, they bit better for others.
When the scales closed, Andy Thomas’s single-man team topped the 27-boat field to take home the win. He had a 5-fish limit weighing 15.18 pounds, earning him a total of $1070.00
for the day.
Andy has been fishing with us since the 5 Alive Team Trail started. Andy is one of what I call one of the Good Ol’ Boys. About as nice of a guy as you’re ever going to meet and a good fisherman to boot. Glad to see him Win. CONGRATULATIONS Andy!
He was followed by two guys who are no strangers to the sport. Mike Riggs & David Farrington teamed up and brought home the 2nd place finish. They had a 5 fish limit weighing 14.42 pounds, which got them an extra $645.00
to go home with. Two well-respected Veterans of the sport, and like And,y just Good Ol’ Boys.Great Job, Guys!
Big Fish was won by the team of Walker & Richardson. They had a 4.30-pound fish that earned the $270.00.
Congrats! To everyone who placed money last Sunday.
