 KOSA

The retirees from Kosa fished Lake Hickory last week with very good catches being made. John Black and Roger McNeilly had 14.40 and took first place over Tom Mayhew and Larry Melton, who had 10.80. Third place went to David O’Shields and Doug Sparrow  with 10.0. Big bass of the day was a 4.60 largemouth brought in by the winning team of Black and McNeilly. This week the retirees head to Lake Wylie from 7am til 1 pm. Will this long string of 90 degree days make fishing tough? Check back in next week to see.
