67 teams showed up for the 7th & final qualifying tournament of the 2013 Boats Unlimited NC Team Tournament Bass Trail. What a beautiful day we had and the the bite was on fire again at Falls! 67 degrees in the morning and about 87 in the afternoon with SSE 5-10 mph winds for most of the day.

Ken McNeill & Thomas Sheffer had the best of the eleven 20+ lb. bags taking 1st place honors with 5 bass weighing 27.52 lbs. They won the 1st place money and the BOATS UNLIMITED NC 1st place $1,000 bonus along with 2nd place Big Fish for a grand total of $2,681. 

Scott Dunn & Stewart Adams won 2nd place (25.98 lbs.) pocketing $804. The team of David Hall & Dane Sallinger racked up some good pocket change with 4th place money of $482, 1st Place Big Fish & 1st Place TWT for a grand total of $2,491.

268 fish were weighed in for a whopping total weight of 875 pounds. At least 4 weighed over 7 lbs! Numerous bass weighing 5 to 6 lbs. were also weighed in and the fish were healthy! Most fish were caught from 2 to 20 feet of water on a variety of baits including crankbaits, top water, vertical jigs and plastics for the most part. Water temps averaged 84 degrees.

 

I want to thank all the anglers that participated and that support this trail.
