Friday, October 1, 2021 at 1:22PM Observer Reports
Crappie USA celebrates its 25th Anniversary with a championship event set for Oct. 15-16 at Hartwell Lake's Green Pond Landing.
Anglers have been fishing Crappie USA events nationwide to qualify for the annual championship.
“Mid-October should be good on Hartwell,” advised CUSA Operations Manager Darrell Van Vactor. “I would think the long-line trollers will find good success as well as vertical jig fishermen. It should produce some good weights at Green Pond Landing weigh-in.”
All teams must pre-register at least seven days before the event. Entry fees are, Amateur Division $225.00 per team; Pro Division $400.00 per team; Big Fish (optional) $25.00.
Registration is scheduled for Thursday at the Anderson Sports & Entertainment Center from noon-5:00 pm. A banquet and seminar will follow beginning at 7 p.m.
The tournament weigh-in will be held at Green Pond Landing. Fishing hours are 6:30 a.m.-3 p.m. and all anglers are required to be in the weigh-in line by 4 p.m. Interviews of the top 5 teams are conducted following the weigh-in and the public is invited.
