Rusty Clark and Cory Rambo, our 2015 Anglers of the Year, came in a solid second
Sunday April 3rd 2016 started out at a chilly 42 degrees. But didn’t stop 34 fishermen from coming out to fish Big Sam. There were 17 teams who entered to fish the fourth AQ team event of the year on Sam Rayburn.
Yes our numbers seem low, but I challenge each one of you to come out and compete against some of the best Rayburn Fishermen on the water. You think your good fisherman, or maybe just real lucky ? Come on out and show us and earn those bragging rights.
Kevin Walker represented his team for the win with five bass that weighed 26.34 lbs. Kevin reported catching his fish out of his Ranger/Evinrude rig on the south end in 15-18 feet of water cranking early followed by Carolina rigs, then later in the day flippin’.
