BOBBY SCHARBER WINS $30,000 AT THE 2019 PICKWICK / WILSON BASH
The 2nd annual Pickwick / Wilson Lake Big Bass Bash is now in the books, and what a great event it was. Over 500 anglers participated in the 2019 event, competing for cash prizes totaling over $107,000. We want to thank all of the anglers for your tremendous support for this event, as well as Florence Tourism for all of their support. The hospitality we received from the local community was greatly appreciated.
The summertime pattern was definitely in effect, with the majority of the money fish coming from anglers targeting the ledges on Pickwick Lake. Bobby Scharber, of Pulaski, TN, was one of those fisherman targeting ledges throughout the weekend. Bobby finessed his way to the top prize, using a drop shot rig on 10 lb. line to haul in his 8.26 lb. winning fish. Bobby weighed in his fish at the Waterloo Riverside weigh-in station during the 8am-10am time slot on Sunday. That bass held up the remainder of the day, earning Bobby the win and the top prize of $30,000 in cash. Congratulations again to Bobby Scharber, your 2019 Pickwick / Wilson Lake Big Bass Bash champion.
Don't forget, the 2020 Pickwick / Wilson Lake Big Bass Bash will be held on March 21-22.
