Points Race Tight As It Can Get For The Final Yadkin Fall Catt On High Rock
Marty and JT Stone won the last CATT Yadkin qualifier on High Rock!
The Carolina Anglers Team Trail final Yadkin fall qualifier will be held Saturday on High Rock Lake, with two teams separated by just one point in the standings.
“Toddy Haynes and Jeremy Talbert have moved into the points lead by one point ahead of Ronnie White and Randy Weddington,” said tournament director/owner Brett Collins. “Haynes and Talbert finished second Nov. 16 while White and Weddington finished third.”
But, Collins noted, the final qualifier Saturday is a double-points event so the tournament could turn into a shootout for the points title, with either of the top two teams claiming the championship or a team from down in the standings getting hot and shooting to the top.
“A team must enter two Yadkin Fall Qualifiers to be eligible to enter the Final,” Collins said. “So far we have 31 teams eligible, plus another 12 teams who have entered one tournament, so there is a good chance we will have over 40 teams qualified for the Final Dec 14th at High Rock.”
That would tie a big, bright bow on what has been a banner year for the CATT Trail on the Yadkin Chain, Collins said.
“In 2012 CATT paid back just over $27,000 on the Yadkin Trail but this year we will pay over $44,000 when we wrap up the Fall Trail.”
Based on the fishing so far this fall, anglers anticipate super fishing on High Rock for the final qualifier, Collins said.
“Fishing has just been fantastic on High Rock this fall. The average winning weight has been just a shade over 20 pounds,” he said. “Word is a small crankbait and jig will do the job Saturday. Fish are being caught anywhere from 1 foot to 5 feet on the main lake. The weather is going to be a lot warmer for this time of the year so look for more good bags to be weighed Saturday at Tamarac Marina on High Rock.”
