Jordan Lee Wins at Lake Guntersville!!!

Jordan Lee, the 18 year old Bassfury Pro from Alabama, wins a first place victory at the Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Weekend Series bass tournament, which was held on Lake Guntersville this past weekend. This win gives Jordan the overall points title in the Alabama North division which automatically qualifies him for the National Championship at Lake Dardanelle, November 1-7, 2009, and brings him one step closer to fishing the coveted Bassmaster Classic.

In a recent email to Bassfury® Jordan summed up his win at Guntersville by saying; “Wow what a year! I just finished the "regular season" with a first place win at Guntersville, in the Bassmaster Weekend Series. This past weekend was my biggest win yet. It was a two day tournament. After day one, I was in 3rd place with 19.27 pounds and I was down about a half of a pound. On day two I increased my weight and brought in 19.61 pounds. It was an unbelievable weekend and I won the AOY (Angler of the Year) points. This means I get an automatic bid to the National Championship, to get to fish against the Nations best at a shot at the Bassmaster Classic. I had a great year and you can check out my victory at ABA's home website, it will be posted sometime today”

Congratulations Jordan!!! We at Bassfury® could not be happier or prouder of you. You truly represent what our company and brand is all about!!!
