My advice for incoming anglers is to not be intimidated by the competition. The goal is to have fun and better yourself as an angler. This club is all about having fun and giving back to our community!
The highlight of this club is the community service. I love getting to give back to our community and say thank you for always supporting us. Getting to help out and make a difference always leaves you feeling good.
My favorite memory while being in the club was the World finals trips. Those trips have been the most rewarding and have taught me the most about fishing. They have allowed me to experience different parts of the U.S and get to fish them. They have been my favorite memories!

My advice, it is very important to participate in the events because the more points you earn the higher you go in standings.
My favorite part about being in the club is when we travel to the lakes across central Florida.
A memory I will always remember is when I represented the club at the high school world finals my freshman year in Alabama.

The best advice I have for incoming anglers is to make sure you thank any of your sponsors during your weigh-ins, make sure to have fun, and join the executive board!
The highlights of being a part of this club is the memories you make traveling to different tournaments.
My favorite memory was my freshman year when we went to Alabama for World Finals; I had the most fun and made memories I will never forget!

My advice is to never give up in a tournament because you never know when the fish will bite. Sometimes they'll bite at the last 5 minutes of the tournament. Also, you need to respect and listen to the adult board because they go out of the way to make stuff happen for everyone in the club. Donna and Marsy will do everything and anything they can for our club and the anglers so you need to respect them and they will respect you.
My biggest highlight these past 4 years was bringing in a 10 pounder on one of the tournaments my freshman year.
I have many memories that will stay with me forever but the best one would have to be when and where I caught my 10 pounder. My dad and brother were fishing with me on Sungrove and when I had the fish on my line I thought it was a huge mud fish so I was kinda mad and then I looked more closely and I was like oh shoot that ain't no mud fish. So my brother tried looking for the net and there wasn't one in the boat then he tried grabbing the bass but he couldn't and just ended up grabbing the line and putting it in the boat. Thankfully the line didn't break or anything or else I would've thrown him in the water. Till this day I don't understand how we got it in the boat like that.

For the incoming anglers, this club is a commitment and it can be difficult at times but once you see past that, it definitely pays off. Being taught sportsmanship and skill in the art of bass fishing and putting other people before yourself. But all in all have fun and try your best.
My highlight of the club is meeting new people and learn skills from the amazing captains I've had and especially the board welcoming every angler that has that same passion for fishing as all of us.
The one memory that will stick with me forever is running around Southport boat ramp last year trying to get warm while it was practically freezing out.

My advice for incoming anglers is to always take any advice given to you by other anglers and your captains. You may learn something new that you’ve never tried before.
The high light of this club is that we have all the opportunities in the world to meet new people and help our community.
My favorite memory from this club that I will take with me is when we do club activities and everyone comes together and helps each other.
