Brown & Murray Win 2012 Florida State High School Fishing Championship

March 3, 2012 (Kissimmee, FL) – Twenty-nine high school fishing teams and their coaches helped get the High School Fishing State Championship Series off to a good start as they braved high winds on legendary Lake Toho near Kissimmee, Florida today.

When the teams all returned to the scales, it was newcomers Trevor Brown and Austin Murray who conquered the field with a 5 bass limit that weighed 14.13 pounds to win the 2nd annual event.  This was the first High School tournament for these two anglers. Trevor Brown, who attends Pine Ridge High School, was all smiles as he thanked his dad John for getting him and his partner Austin, who is a home-schooled student, on the fish. “It was a real grind,” cited Trevor. “We fished hard all day and fortunately we got a few big bites.” The real story of this championship was that Trevor actually built the lures that the pair used to catch the winning bag. When asked if he might be interested in selling a few of those to other anglers Trevor just smiled and said, “That’s the plan!” Both anglers also said they were going back home as champions and hope to use that feat to get a high school club started in their area and bring back several more teams next year.
