You may recall when we publicized the National Guard FLW Outdoors Western Region Collegiate Championship Fishing Tournament held at Utah Lake in the late summer. The three-day event brought the best collegiate bass fishermen from the western US to compete for a chance to be in the national championship next spring. It even included a local team from Utah Valley University.
This wasn’t just a simple tournament. FLW brought film crews to follow the fishermen over the course of the tournament and took a lot of video of the college teams out on Utah Lake, as well as our region. Participants and sponsors were amazed at the beauty of the lake. It should be a great way to showcase what great resources we have.
The footage they took at the tournament has been edited into a one-hour fishing show that will be broadcast on Sunday, November 4 on NBC Sports at 11:00 a.m. (MST). Hope you get a chance to either watch it or record it for later to see our lake on national TV and also to see how our local team fared! Let us know what you thought in the comments or on Facebook.
