FLW Cancels 2020 High School Fishing Minicamps
BENTON, Ky. (June 9, 2020) – FLW, the world’s largest tournament-fishing organization, announced today the cancellation of the three High School Fishing minicamps that were to be held in conjunction with three 2020 Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit events.
Traditionally a three-day summer camp held at Murray State University, FLW shifted the format to three single-day minicamps in response to the coronavirus pandemic and to allow more anglers, coaches and boat captains the opportunity to attend. However, the uncertainty created by ongoing group-size restrictions and mask requirements has made execution of the camps impractical.
FLW is committed to ensuring that the High School Fishing camps are the absolute best experience for students, parents, coaches and boat captains alike. The tournament organization is looking forward to returning in 2021 with both the traditional camp and the minicamps to provide more opportunities for young anglers to learn about bass fishing from the world’s top professionals.
