When Alex Booth developed a passion for fishing at the ripe old age of seven, he didn’t have to twist his Dad’s arm very hard. Before Alex was born, Dad was fairly heavy into tournament bass fishing, but wanting to spend more time with Alex, he sold his Bassboat. Likewise when Alex turned ten and wanted to tournament fish it wasn’t hard to convince Dad to buy a new boat. Nearly every Saturday in any weather for the next year or so, you could find Alex and Dad learning more about bass fishing.
At the seasoned age of eleven all of Alex’s passion and persistence at fishing resulted in a first place finish on April 2, 2021, at the Southern Outdoors Bass Club final bass tournament.
Many of Norris Lakes best bass fishers including young guns and old-timers cheered as Alex accepted the first place prize.
