Chapter 29 Summary
The day before the contest is a rainy one and Macon is distracted by tracking the weather for the following day. He buys rain gear for Cat just in case. Cat admits to Lily that she will be disappointed if she does not win, though does not confide that it is beating John Harvey, not the prize money, that motivates her.
Chapter 30 Summary
The day of the contest arrives, and Macon accompanies Cat to the pier where the other contestants are gathered. Dean from the bait shop reads the rules and the contest begins. John Harvey catches the first fish, though before too long, Cat catches a four-pounder.
She takes a break and tries some hush puppies from the food truck, then returns to fishing. Macon stops by and Cat learns that John Harvey is in first place, which Macon finds surprising, but Cat does not. Chicken and Lily arrive after a visit to the library. Lily tells Cat that Mom will be late, and Cat worries that she may miss the contest altogether.
After Lily and Chicken leave, Macon and Cat walk the pier, watching the other contestants.
