The 4th stop of the SC Lowcountry Division kicked off Friday night at the Community Center on Dreher Island. After Pizza and soft drinks our anglers heard a great message from former Director Bobby Jackson.
Saturday morning came with the promise of great weather and hopes of Big Bags of Murray Largemouths. Most fish seem to be in transition from the typical spawning grounds toward the schooling points that Murray is famous for, but as usual someone always figures them out.
Bringing in the days heaviest Bag was the always tough team of Chris Epting and Johnny Mayer fresh off a top 20 at the National Championship.
Their 19.17 lb bag earned them the guaranteed $5000 First place and 1st Bonus Bucks making it a $5300+ payday!
Finishing second was the team of Josh McGregor and Randall Driggers who brought 18.85 lbs to the scales and took home almost $1800
Rounding out the top 3 was the team of Micky Sauls and Robbie Amos whose 17.92 lb bag included a beautiful 7.43 lb bass. Unfortunately for them on a day where a 7 1/2 lber would usually claim Big fish they were one upped by Rodney Tapp and Travish Parrish's 8.46 lb monster.
27 of the 43 teams competing brought a 5 fish limit to the scales and it took a 15 1/2 lb bag to get a check. Good fishing guys and gals!
