HIGH SCHOOL FISHING: Bowie competes at Ray Roberts Saturday
The Bowie High School bass fishing team will compete in the Texas High School Bass Association West Division meet at Lake Ray Roberts this Saturday.
The meet will begin at 8 a.m. at Ray Roberts Marina in Sanger.
There will be $10 boat captains’ side pot for big bass, but that will not count toward the amount of fish student anglers catch, and the fish must be kept separate from the students’ haul.
There will be boat check from 5-8 p.m. on March 20, and then check in will be from 5:30-7:30 a.m. on March 21.
The tournament features length limits on largemouth and smallmouth bass with a 14-inch minimum. No minimum length for Guadalupe or spotted bass.
The daily bag limit is five fish, and the culling of dead fish is not allowed.
Bowie will take several teams to the meet, including Lane Hopson and Hadley Morgan.
Kollin Gillaspia and Jake Rhyne will continue to team up.
Other teams are Stetson Gaines and Brandon McChesney, Spenser Meekins and Jared Stone and Mitch Sanders will be a one-person team.
Bowie had a rough meet earlier this month at Lewisville Lake, and no teams caught any fish.
Currently, Bowie sits in 10th in the West Division Team of the Year standings. The Rabbits have 235 points, 2.5 points behind Aledo and one ahead of Sanger.
Hopson and Morgan are eighth in the team of the year standings, with 715.5 points, just 15 points outside of sixth place. Sanders and Kamry Weber is 19th overall, Gillaspia and Rhyne are 27th, Meekins and Stone are 44th and Brandon McChesney and Stetson Gaines are 45th.

Bellevue Coach Jamie Hickey was proud of her squad’s effort.

Bowie VB falls to Peaster in bi-district
In the playoffs, being consistent is even more important than the regular season.
Bowie’s consistency ebbed and flowed Oct. 30 in its bi-district volleyball matchup with Peaster. The Lady ‘Hounds were able to capitalize on that and wound up knocking the Lady Rabbits out of the postseason with a 3-0 (25-14, 25-11, 25-19) win at Graham High School.
Bowie Coach Ashley Sanders said her squad never completely got on track.
“When you get to this level, into the postseason, you have to find the rhythm and that consistency and Peaster definitely had that,” Sanders said. “We struggled to find our consistency. We had our moments where we tied together some really good plays.”
