Late day heroics by the following anglers shook up the standings! At the literal last-minute Jon House landed a 17.75″ for his final cull and a 2-day total of 178″. This improvement landed him 2nd place and $2785!

Bennett Nall also landed a 19″ in the last 10 minutes of day 2! This final cull elevated him to an impressive two-day total of 177.5″. He earned $1895 for his 3rd place finish.

All 3 anglers earned qualifications to this year’s Tournament of Champions of Santee Cooper Lakes, Clarendon Co SC.

Our Harris Chain Champion Blake Abbey stuck a 21″ Largemouth on day 2 to earn the YakGear Big Bass award and $500!
