We kick off the 2010 season on Lake Murray and Lake Wylie this coming Saturday! 2009 was another great year and CATT has grown each year since 2005! In 2009 a total of 481 teams entered a CATT event and over $145,000.00 was paid back. With the majority of CATT tournaments entry fee of $80 you can see there was a big number of people fishing. This year we hope to push up close to $200,000.00 with the addition of Lake Hickory, NC and the Waccamaw River down on the coast of South Carolina.

The 2-day CATT Classic will be on Lake Murray May 15-16 at Dreher Island where we expect 125 to 150 teams from SC & NC. All you have to do to qualify is finish in the top 70 in points at any Spring 2010 CATT Trail. Some have already qualified through the 2009 Fall trails and that info is on the CATT site.

You can pay at the ramp so if you want to fish we will see you Sat morning at Murray or Wylie...below is the 2009 CATT Recap...

If you think there is room for a CATT Trail on your home lake call me.
