As a teacher and coach, adding bass fishing is great. This gives kids, with different skills, a chance to represent their school. Hopefully, scholarships will be available for those that move on. There are more athletic scholarships available for students than academic. If it gives kids a chance great! Trust me they have to work for it both on the field and in the classroom. The time spent in high school sports is incredible. Kids must participate in there sport year round and have very little to work or just be kids.
