Jeff Clark-Boater- Member since 2017
Jeff came to us in 2017 from the great state of Georgia. An army vet for over 17 years, Jeff has been tournament fishing for a while now, and got off to a great start with Sandhills in the spring Season last year with his Top 3 finish, earning himself a berth in the Sandhills Classic in his very first Season. Jeff cruises these lakes around here in his 20ft Triton outfitted with his newly accquired power poles. Jeff loves to throw a texas rig, and is deadly when the water is high and the fish are tight to cover. He will definitely be a force to be reckoned with this season.
carlos garcia-boater-member since 2017
Carlos is an army vet who came to us in 2017. He started his career with sandhills off with a bang, winning the very first tournament he every fished with us at Jordan Lake and qualifying for the Classic in his very first try. Carlos loves to flip shallow grass and his favorite bait to do this with is a yum Christy Critter. Look out for Carlos this season as he will be looking for his first AOY title. Just don't try to toss him his keys if you are out on the water, we all know what happens in that instance.
jake harvey-boater-member since 2018
Jake is returning to Sandhills after a 3 year break. He is the 2014 Sandhills AOY and is looking to add another title to that this season. Jake has an 18ft Triton and loves to bed fish, but don't let him fool you, this dude can flat out catch em any way he wants, as the picture to the left indicates. He is deadly with a shaky head as well and always seems to put a limit in the boat early. Watch out for Jake as we head into the 2018 season.
James bills-non-boater-member since 2017
James came to us last season as an avid fly fisherman looking to get into the bass fishing seen for the first time. He has learned a lot in his time with sandhills, and got his first win of the season last year at Harris to qualify for the classic. James recently landed his personal best, a 7lb 15oz, 21.5 incher. Although his wife did give birth to that, it is still the best catch of his life! Congrats James!
Mike Meck-Boater since 2018
Mike is an army vet who came to us in 2018. He has fit in nicely with the club, becoming a factor immediately in his first couple tournaments, notching a second place finish at Jordan Lake during the summer season. Mike likes to throw a frog and his favorite lake is Jordan.
Tommy Young-Nonboater
Tommy "Chief" Young started bass fishing in 2015, and boy has he shot up the ranks quickly. He won a tournament in his first and second seasons, and has been a factor in many other tournaments as well. Fishing out of the "SS Minnow", he is always a threat to win. He is probably the best jig fisherman in the club, and has two mottos he lives by. The first one is "If its free, its for me" and "Live by the jig, die by the Jig". Fresh off a year in korea, he is back and ready for some North Carolina bass!!
