CKA Tournament 4 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Scott Kerr Lake, NC<\/strong><\/p>\n

May 12, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n

Advance notice: please read the info below the paragraphs carefully!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kerr Scott is another new lake to the CKA Trail. There is a story as to how it was chosen. While debating lakes for the 2018 season, the CKA directors reached a deadlock over a May date and lake. Rather than concede, one of us chose a random lake from a map, a lake he had never heard of, fished or seen in his life. One of his opponents then said, \u201cyou know, that\u2019s a great lake. That could work out.\u201d Therefore, all the usual factors for lake selection went out the window. We did not choose this lake based on popularity or season, angler feedback or another trail\u2019s schedule or for any reason at all. It was random.<\/p>\n

In sum, 3 of the first 4 lakes of the 2018 CKA season (Hyco, High Rock, and Scott Kerr) were new to our series and the 4th<\/sup> (Hickory) is a recent addition. We set out to shake everyone out of their comfort zone. The result we hoped for has come to pass: attendance is far outpacing 2017 and this year\u2019s AOY standings are more competitive, making for wide open AOY and ROY races.<\/p>\n

Scott Kerr is located in the northwest Piedmont, near Wilkesboro. It is one of 4 Piedmont lakes run by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. There will be (7) launches eligible listed below. There is also camping and rental cabins, which can be found at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n
