The fifth annual Lowcountry Slam was held this weekend in local waters, and three men came out on top Saturday, Nov. 2.

The Lowcountry Slam, sponsored by Beaufort Boat and Dock Supply in Port Royal, pits local anglers against each other in three different species: speckled trout, flounder and red drum. Aggregate weights are taken in all three species.

Top winner was Mac Dean. Second place went to Mike Linker, and third place went to Bubba Coker.
