And the Winner is....

Each year Legends Outdoors donates a trip at the Hunter's Gallery Appreciation Days in July for one of their raffle prizes.  The 2019 winner was Tom and he cashed in his winning ticket for a Late September outing with his niece.  The day wound up having a cool morning that rapidly turned into a very hot day with barely a ripple on the water and high blue skies.  Tom's niece has been salt water fishing more often than fresh water, so she had to adapt to the lighter gear on the outing as light line tactics and Keitech Baits were the weapons of choice per say.  Tom would hook a slammer smallmouth bass right out of the gates only to have it do some aerial tactics to free itself of the hook and swim back down into the depths of Lake Wallenpaupack.  These two family members would shake that right off and get back at it.  They kept making their rounds from spot to spot and landed some really hefty pickerel on the day and also some smallmouth bass.  Tom and his niece had some sandwiches and snacks along with beverages on this hot day and chatted about many a topic.  Tom is now retired and is still very busy, but was thrilled to win this trip and get out for a day with his niece.
