NCCATS is the only non-profit fishing trail in the southeast that is a sanctioned organization affiliated with the Cabela's King Kat Tournament Trail. Besides the Cabela's King Kat Tournament Trail NCCATS will provide the catfish angler's a second chance to be able to qualify for the Cabela's King Kat Classic on the Santee-Cooper Lakes. NCCATS will be hitting the waters of Lakes Marion and Moultrie of the Santee-Cooper Lakes on July 30, 2005. This tournament will be headquartered out of Black's Camp in Cross, SC.
