the honor of Claiming The Cup and putting their names on the
actual trophy for 2010. Over 100 invitations have been sent
to the top anglers that have fished Lake Anna this year from
circuits like Championship Teams, LAPR Bass Series, High
Point Marina's Friday Night Tournaments, Sturgeon Creek
Marina's Tuesday Night and Sunday Morning Tournaments and
Fishers Of Men Tournament Trail. If you didn't qualify, you
are still welcome to fish as an at-large team. Entry
fee is $70 per team for at-large invitations.
Last
year the event drew over 65 teams. When all fish were
weighed it was Larry Wollersheim and Preston Cox that took
the Cup with a little over 14 pounds of Lake Anna largemouth
bass. Anna's Marine Center brought TRACKER and Nitro boats
for spectators to inspect and High Point Marina was the host
on a beautiful early November day.
"The goal of the Lake Anna Cup is to further
introduce Lake Anna to new anglers that might have only
fished here once as well as publicize the great fishing we
have here even after Labor Day," noted organizer C.C.
McCotter.
