CATT Classic Winners take Home $6,500.00 at Lake Wylie!

We had a total of 72 teams enter the 2011 CATT Classic held on Lake Wylie May 14-15 launching out of Ebeneezer Park competing for a purse totaling over $17,000.00! Before we get to the results many thanks go out to Mr. Robert Thomas and Mr. Bennish Brown with York County Tourism. Without them this event would not have been possible! If you’re in the Lake Wylie area Ebneezer Park is a great place to spend the day with your family.

Robert Fowler and Steve Whiteside are two of the original anglers who entered the first CATT tournaments we held on Lake Wylie back in 2003. They both have won money over the years but Saturday they hit the jackpot! Steve and Robert brought in 13.17 lb the first day of competition and the 2nd day they weighed in the heaviest bag of the tournament at 17.02 lbs.
