DeKalb Fishing Team Competes at State
The DeKalb County High School fishing team tried to reel in a big one at the Tennessee Bass Nation State Tournament. But the big catch got away from the four teams participating. The teams of Jaxon Humphrey and Rowan Miller, Haston and Hagen Waggoner, Mason Taylor and Wesley Kent and Logan O’Connor cast their lines out June 3rd and 4th on Kentucky Lake at Paris Landing.
Fishing teams throughout the state of Tennessee accumulate points throughout the season, and the Top 30 in points for each region of Tennessee advance to the state tournament. Unfortunately, none of DeKalb’s team members placed high enough to advance to the national tournament that will be held in August in South Carolina.
