March 31 2018 High School Team Series on Potholes Resevoir
WASHINGTON’S STUDENT ANGLERS

          Ten High School teams opened their season series at Pot Holes Reservoir with last year’s State Team Champions making a statement. Trevor Huff & Wade Wilkens put everyone on notice that they are carrying momentum into this year’s series with their eye on a possible repeat Championship this year. Trevor & Wade weighed in a 23.92lb bag of largemouth to top second place by more than five pounds. They worked the job corps dike and the back areas of the lake, to also have big fish of the tournament, a 6.75lb largemouth that Wade said took his bait just as he was ready to pull his bait back into the boat, having about three feet of line out caused a little excitement and everyone to scrabble to get the net before it snapped the line.

            Isaiah Garza & Jordan Gregory last year’s junior state champion took second place with 17.68lbs of largemouth, they hit a number of spots waiting to get the big fish bite but it didn’t happen. Third place went to Kelso’s Trystan Wallace & Jack Childers with 14.39lbs.  A close 4^th place went to last year’s big fish angling team of the year Blake Williams & Noah Whitten with 14.11lbs and almost big fish of the tournament a 6.58lb largemouth.
