Tuckertown Recap!

We rarely hold tournaments at Tuckertown, a lake that we took a chance on this year having only fished once there before. The gamble paid off. Storms swept through the area Friday, breaking a long heat wave. Low humidity, cool air temperatures and cool water temperatures greeted the 60 anglers showed up to a perfect morning with a strong bite.

AOY and ROY updates

Hello all, The CKA standings are heating up as we approach mid season! In the AOY race, Joey Sullivan has emerged as a favorite after three strong events, but with 5 remaining anything can happen.

The leaders are tightly bunched, and two rookies (Jason leach and Adam Petrone) are in the top 10 of the overall AOY rankings, too. Looking ahead, remember that Tuckertown (June 1st) is the last…
