Luke Ferguson claimed Bartow High School Yellow Jackets’ Angler of the Year for the second year running, going wire to wire for the win.

Jackets’ Tournament Director, Derek Boswell, explained, “Luke approached high school fishing with a great attitude, displaying a level of excellence in everything he did. A true Student Angler.”

Boswell announced a new award for the Jackets beginning next season that will be called the “Luke Ferguson Sportsman Award,” an honor that Ferguson said surpasses winning Angler of the Year.
