Angling Times Weekly Issue 61 SA Bass Comps 2017 | Page 13

Henry Petersen
started off with
two days of bad
luck. On day one
his partner’s boat
had mechanical
problems and on
day two the
skipper had an
heart attack and
was evacuated to a
hospital in
Nashville.
Eventually Henry’s
luck turned and
managed to land
the one and only
fish on day three to
win the FLW
International
Division Friendly
Tournament.
He and his team
mate, Wayne Louw,
were competing
against four
anglers from each
of the following
countries; Canada,
China, Mexico and
South Korea.
FLW South Africa
would like to thank
FLW USA and all
the FLW
international
partners for
making the 2017
Costa FLW Series
Championship an
unforgettable
experience. In
particular a special
word of
appreciation
towards FLW USA
for all their effort in
presenting an
international event
of this magnitude.
