The angler team of Hylton Scott and Travis Walker – shown in the picture above – finished first. Logan Reynolds and Levi Carter finished sixth. Alex Plaster and Wesley Hudson finished 11th.
The PCHS Fishing Team is made of student anglers who compete in the Bass High School Nation. Each year, the top 20 teams are named and Professional Angler John Crews presents the awards to the winning anglers.
