Total weight was 5.69 pounds with just two fish caught, and one was big bass of the tournament at 2.86 pounds. Congratulations Aston and Aiden! Second place, and the only other team of a total of six competing teams to catch a fish, was Landen White with one fish weighing 1.49 pounds. The winner of the new Abu Garcia rod n reel flipping contest was Landen Jackson. After the weigh-in and flipping contest, in honor of Chad Moroski and his dad Jim Moroski, the young contestants were treated to all sorts of goodies ranging from rods and reels to all sorts of other tackle to choose from. The tackle was donated by Kevin Dutton. The Moroskis’ sorted and repacked the hard baits and plastics, the Captain “Scooby” of Mudfish Adventures donated his time cleaning and repairing some of the rods. Hemphill Bass Club is so very blessed, and big thanks goes out to all of the great and giving folks like these to help the club and our young anglers!

Hemphill High School OAP competed in Woodville on February 28th and secured numerous awards for the cast and crew. A performance for the public is being planned for a later date.

Since Hemphill was out of school for the week of Nationall FFA week they decided to help with drop off the last day of school before winter break. It was hard to see which ones were more excited the little kids or the big kids helping get them out.
