Since 2020, when CKA and CCKF adopted the five fish limit, the two clubs have fished about seventy tournaments in North Carolina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In those seventy tournaments, nine limits of 100\u201d or longer have been submitted to leaderboards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of those nine limits, four of them came from Lake Mackintosh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The numbers are staggering. Lake Mackintosh has outproduced its nearest rival (Jordan) by twice the amount (four 100\u201d limits to two).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to delivering 100\u201d limits to kayak anglers, Lake Mackintosh is the most productive fishery in North Carolina. And it isn\u2019t even close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite accounting for less than 10% of all tournament locations, Mack accounts for nearly 50% of the five-fish limits caught that measured over 100\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And CKA will be fishing there on July 20, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its new hourly big-bass option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If that doesn\u2019t motivate you to register, what will?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
