Santee Cooper! What a lake! Went my entire career so far having never been to Santee and now I’ve been there the past three years in a row. Absolutely love this gem of a fishery located down in eastern South Carolina.
This was another fun event full of big bass and that always needed payday! I finished 27th out of 225 in the second stop of the Bassmaster Southern Opens.
