RICEVILLE HIGH SCHOOL WINS IOWA STATE HIGH SCHOOL FISHING CHAMPIONSHIP ON MISSISSIPPI RIVER
PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, Wis. (June 2, 2015) – The Riceville High School team of Kaleb Tweite and Kyler Bauer brought 8 pounds, 6 ounces to the scale Sunday to win the 2015 Iowa State High School Fishing Championship on the Mississippi River. The win earned the team the title of state champions and qualified the team to compete in the High School Fishing Central Conference championship on Lake Carlyle in September.

It wasn’t the largest field in the 2015 TBF/FLW High School State Championship Series, but there was no lack of effort between the two teams that competed for the title. In the end, the Riceville Wildcat duo narrowly edged out runner-ups Sheldon Spears and Noah Clark of Prairie City-Monroe High School who finished in second with 7 pounds, 14 ounces.

Complete results can be found at HighSchoolFishing.org.
The 2015 Iowa State High School Fishing Championship was a two-person (team) event open to students in grades 7-12. The top 10 percent from each TBF/FLW state championship field will advance to a High School Fishing conference championship along with the top three teams from each of the seven TBF/FLW High School Fishing Opens held this season. The top 10 percent of each conference championship field will then advance to the High School Fishing National Championship, coinciding with the TBF National Championship and an FLW Tour stop in the spring of 2016. The High School Fishing national champions will each receive a $5,000 college scholarship to the school of their choice.
In addition to the High School Fishing National Championship, all High School Fishing anglers nationwide automatically qualify for the world’s largest high school bass tournament, the 2015 High School Fishing World Finals, held on Pickwick Lake in Florence, Alabama, on July 8-11. At the 2014 World Finals more than $40,000 in scholarships and prizes were awarded. Visit HighSchoolFishing.org for details.
