KENTUCKY LAKE - On a day when high winds made navigation a challenge, the anglers fishing the 2017 YETI FLW College Fishing Open on Kentucky Lake still hauled in an impressive overall catch that included seven limits of more than 20 pounds and 46 limits of more than 15 pounds.
 
Campbellsville sent eight boats to the YETI FLW College Fishing Open and one boat sits in the Top 20. Michael Shelton and Trevor Sagrecy reeled in five fish for 17 pounds 6 ounces to lead the Tigers and sit in 17^th place.
