After letting mother nature beat us three times we finally got it done !The 2017 N.C./S.C. Clash is in the books !
We had to move it over to the enemy territory but finally got it in. Started out a bit chilly. Oh heck no it was COLD ! My little guage in the truck had 23 at launch time. The one on the boat showed 22. Either way it was cold. Other than that is was smooth sailing. Little ice on the ramp but everyone managed it just fine. High Rock Lake was down about 4 ft. I heard. So where do you look for fish when its that cold and water down . In the water was a good place to start. Water temp was 44 up to 46 at weigh in. Little breeze but not bad. We had a super turnout for the event. Four brave crews from S.C. made the trip. There was I think 7 or 9 N.C. boats. Cant make out the writing Stevie put down. Anyway the odds were against us S.C. boys, but we dont back down from a good scrap. The fishing was a little off but if you searched around you could find a few. They were anywhere from 15 down to 30 fow. Figure that one out.Some guys pulled jigs and caught fish . Others tightlined minnows. Met some of the faces behind the names you see on here. Glad to meet everyone of you. A few people promised they were signing up on C.D.C soon as they got home.Join the fun. You will never meet a better bunch of guys and girls to fish with or talk fishing. Welcome aboard to ya !. Hope to see you again soon. Now the good stuff. For the top 7 for individual spot was:
Cecil & Cecil with 7.11 lbs.
2nd went to Mr. Ken. Sorry cant make out the last name. at 7.6 lbs.
And 3rd went to our favorite team. Team Remus with 7.4. lb
Congratulations to you guys. Well done.
Now individual big fish went to : Cecil & Cecil with 2.8 lb.
A note here on the weights: The weight is with a 7. oz pan in the weights. So for more precise totals subtract 7 oz. from each weight. But everyone got the weight with pan included. Scale master to lazy to keep zeroing it out each time. But everyone was weighed the same.
Now for the Clash results. After a vote among everyone there it was decided to weigh the four biggest fish from each team. Therefore after a handpicked team of expert mathmaticians
and score keepers it was decided that
With a total of 4 big fish at 6.21 lbs against a total of 7.04 lbs the winning state will be !!!!
Bet ya waitin on the results aint ya. Well hold on one more moment.
