Big Fred chasing $200,000 in N.C.

In case you’ve been wondering what’s up with Big Fred Contaoi these days, our Bassmesiter is currently in Charlotte, N.C. preparing for the next FLW Tour stop at Lake Norman, which will take place April 26-29. Like all the FLW Wal-Mart events, there’s a big purse at Norman…how big? How about $200,000 for first place!

Lake Norman is a shallow, good-sized body of water that’s full of largemouth and spotts. The bass here don’t get all that large, so it’s probably going to take “only” a 12- to 15-pound sack each day to stay in contention.

Fred’s feeling good about things at Norman and has put together a new game plan that should help him climb the ranks.

As always, we’ll keep you posted…
