Ethan Snyder captures Junior Bassmasters state championship

At age 13 Ethan Snyder of Flaherty joined the Meade County Junior Bass Club and fished his first trail with the 2006 TBF/FLW Junior Bass Circuit. Ethan finished second place in three of four Junior Bass Regional Tournaments landing him the state title of Angler of the Year. He also qualified to fish in the TBF/FLW Junior Bass State Championship Tournament that was held at Rough River Lake on Oct. 7 and 8. The fishing conditions at Rough River were extremely tough, making it hard for the young anglers to get a bite.
