Another high school fishing season opens later this week as Bowie High School travels to Graford for a meet.
The meet is set for Possum Kingdom Lake at 6 a.m. on Saturday. Boat check will take place two hours prior to the boat launch.
“We’re excited and ready for it,” Bowie Bass Club team coordinator Trent Gillaspia said.
Gillaspia said with Possum Kingdom’s lake level up, fishing will be a challenge.
“The fishing will be tough with the lake full or past full,” he said.
Fishing also is more challenging because the water temperature is warm as well. Some Jackrabbits have already practiced fishing at Possum Kingdom.
As of Tuesday’s posting on the Texas High School Bass Association website, 129 two-man teams will be competing in the event.
Bowie will be represented by Kollin Gillaspia and his new teammate Jeremy Stone, a freshman. Trent Gillaspia will serve as the boat captain.
Mitch Sanders will be paired up with Jared Stone, and Rusty Edwards is the boat captain.
Lane Hopson and Hadley Morgan, fresh off winning scholarships last season, will be a team to watch this season. Scott Wolsey serves as boat captain. Read more in the mid-week Bowie News.
