It's Official - Anna has been named MSSA's Youth Angler of the Year. She's probably done way more fishing this year than you guys might guess and has been just floating around with happiness since the news.

"MSSA Youth Angler Club Awards the 2012 Youth Angler of the Year

(ANNAPOLIS, MD) - 9 months and 632 entries later, the 2012 Youth Angler of the Year contest has ended. The MSSA Youth Angler Club along with the Youth Angler of the Year contest is the newest addition to the vast MSSA youth initiatives we have been implementing in nearly every chapter. The 14 chapters of the MSSA are committed to teaching our youth the importance of fishing and conservation. In 2012 MSSA and its chapters hosted over 25 youth and family oriented fishing events reaching nearly 1,000 kids."

It took me just a little while to realize that youth angling is really about fishing together. We've had a lot of good times and managed to get lucky with the fish here and there too! Also - it didn't take long to realize that the MSSA and the sponsors (Clydes and Marty's) are real people giving their time and money to make it happen.

Thanks all
