Dave & Hunter rise with the water to claim the Victory!!

The seventh Patagonia Elite wasn’t about to be out done by the last! Anglers faced what could only be described as epic rainfall!! The lake rose close to a foot while anglers were there with water pouring in from Sonoita Creek. This made for some interesting fishing conditions especially at night. 22 teams made their way to the lake to battle.  The team of Dave and Hunter found the sweet spot and stuck 15.49# of fish in their livewells!! They also had big fish of the event with a 5.38#. Second was followed by Chip and JP  11.07# and the 3^rd biggest fish a 5.22#.  Third was chasing close behind with 11.01# and the events second largest fish of 5.23#  Thanks to everyone for participating see you all August 12th.
