Hot Springs, Ark. If you had the chance to watch the live weigh in on FLW Outdoors you would have seen the emotion Terry McWilliams is known for. Sitting in third place for the first two days of the BFL All-American you could feel it might be his turn to hoist the winners check above his head. But it wasn't meant to be. McWilliams only brought in four bass on the final day of competition. Dropping him to seventh place overall and bringing home $15000.00 for his three days of fishing in the national spotlight. McWilliams finished the tournament with a three day total weight of nineteen pounds three ounces with his final four bass weighing four pounds even.

Wearing the Lowrance jersey for the final day. McWilliams became emotional when FLW host Charlie Evans told how he started the day. By leading the anglers in prayer to start the tournament. McWilliams said when he weighs-in at a tournament he  always thanks his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for giving him the opportunity to do what he loves . Which he did.

Shanyne Berlo of Vienna, Va. won the All American and a check for 100,000 dollars. McWIlliams finished only 1-09 back from the eventual winner. Kim Carver weighed only two bass after leading the first two days and essentually giving the win to Berlo. Carver finished in sixth place.

McWIlliams weighs just four bass. Ends in seventh place

Once again Bassindy.com would like to thank Terry McWilliams for giving us the opportunity to report on his progress. We would also like to congratulate him on his success.
