The DeKalb Fishing Team will soon be ready to hit the water. This will be our third year to compete in Bass Nation Tournaments. We have 19 anglers this year. We are kicking our season off in October 10th out of Old Hickory. As a team we will follow the TN B.A.S.S. High School Trail. Our region that we will follow is the North Central Region. Earlier this week the TWRA helped our anglers with their Boater’s Safety Course. Our children’s safety is our number 1 priority on the water. We are still primarily a High School Team so to speak with the exception of a few 8th graders. We are now made up of children from the following school: DeKalb Middle, DeKalb West, and DeKalb High. We would like to thank our sponsors as well and look forward to kicking this season off.
