LungeFest 2024 Leesville Lake

Over 30 anglers came out to our LEESVILLE LUNGEFEST to wrap up our 2024 in-person tournament season while remembering our departed brother, Chuck Land. It was a lovely Fall day to be on the water in pursuit of muskies, and a handful were brought to net. We saw nine muskies over 30 inches submitted in this single day tournament. The largest of all was a 47.75 inch beauty caught by Hunter was awarded the $280 Big Fish pot for landing that monster! Hunter also received the first place trophy for scoring two fish worth 31.75 points. Brad continued his great season, collecting another trophy for his second place finish with 28.5 points. Also taking home a trophy, Jason @redfiveomustangplaced third with 14.25 points. Congratulations to our trophy winners, and everyone else who was able to put a fish on the board! Our favorite catch of the day though, was from Chuck Jr, who caught his muskie in honor of his father on this day we came together to remember Chuck Sr. Really awesome catch Chuck Jr!

Fish Submitted:
1. Hunter Miller, 47.75″ 36″, 31.75 Pts
