With four tournaments completed, the race for Angler of the Year has tightened up, the Rookie of the Year race remains wide open and qualifying for the Tournament of Champions is also largely indeterminate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking ahead, Jordan, Mackintosh, Mayo and the Gate City Classic remain on the regular season schedule, followed by the Tournament of Champions and the Battle on the Border. That\u2019s a lot of good fishing, and a lot can change between now and then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jordan Lake presented by <a href=\"https:\/\/carolinawatersnc.com\/\">Carolina Waters<\/a> will be on June 29<sup>th<\/sup>, 2024. The lake has been fishing well; at the most recent kayak tournament (a CCKF event in April), Bryan Tsiolkas put 95\u201d on the board to win it. With Florida strain brood stock recently added to the fishery, anglers are excited for the lake\u2019s future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summer fishing on Jordan presents unique opportunities and challenges. The lake\u2019s grass offers cover for hungry bass, its tributaries hold fish and deep off-shore points and roadbeds offer good fishing, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get signed up and ready to start the season, and lock up your spot in the 2024 CKA Tournament of Champions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UP NEXT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CKA fishes Jordan Lake on June 29, 2024.
