NOTES:
BFL South Carolina division competitors can expect a fair day of fishing in this final regular-season tournament of the season. According to recent local reports, water temperatures are still pretty warm – around 81 to 83 degrees – and the majority of anglers are focusing on shallow points around underwater islands, shoals, ditches and old road beds. Expect to see plenty of crankbaits, topwater baits, drop-shot rigs and big plastic worms in the hands of tournament competitors. Earlier this month, boater Jayme Rampey of Liberty, South Carolina won a BFL tournament on Lake Hartwell throwing topwater baits. Fans should expect to see a two-day total of 10 bass nearing 31 to 34 pounds win this BFL South Carolina division finale.

The full field will compete on the first day of competition, with the top 20-percent advancing to the second and final day of competition.

The 2019 BFL is a 24-division circuit devoted to weekend anglers, with 128 tournaments throughout the season, five qualifying events in each division. The top 45 boaters and co-anglers from each division, along with the five winners of the qualifying events, will advance to one of six regional tournaments where they are competing to finish in the top six, which then qualifies them for one of the longest-running championships in all of competitive bass fishing – the BFL All-American. The 2020 BFL All-American will be held April 30-May 2 at Lake Hartwell in Anderson, South Carolina, and is hosted by Visit Anderson. Top performers in the BFL can move up to the Costa FLW Series or even the FLW Tour.
