Winter-Takes-All

For those who endure the elements!

Once the weather turns, the lake becomes perfect for kayakers. There are plenty of us who want to compete 12 months per year and have the chance to win when others have their kayaks stored!

Welcome to the Winter-Takes-All Trail. Three standalone events to hold us over:

November 23rd, 2025: Lake Russell 8AM - 2PM

December 14th, 2025: Lake Keowee 8AM - 2PM

January 10th, 2026: Lake Jocassee 8AM - 2PM

The only thing that matters is who has the most inches on four scorable fish. Winner-takes-all. No runner-ups. Find four fish, 12” minimum, and first place takes all the money!
