Local wins bass tournament hook, line and sinker
Ninaber and Botha will represent South Africa at the 2018 Bassmaster Team Championships in the USA
Kemptonian Craig Ninaber and his fishing partner from Pretoria, Neels Botha, both won the Ebass Tournament Trail late last year. This elite Bass Alliance series is one of South Africa’s most prestigious money series in Bass Fishing, making the title quite a catch. Eighteen teams competed in this final.
Because they won, Ninaber and Botha will represent South Africa at the 2018 Bassmaster Team Championships in the USA later this year. Should one of them manage to win this event, they will have bigger fish to fry at the world’s most prestigious bass angling event – the 2019 Bassmaster Classic.
There must be something in Gauteng’s water because the provincial team also walked away with the title of South Africa’s 2017 Trail Champions during the 2017 SABAA Team Super Finals, which were held at Heyshope in Mpumalanga in December last year.
