XV Black Bass Fishing World Championship 2019. (February 10th – 14th – incl two practise days) We are the champions indeed! Despite huge challenges with the weather and treacherous conditions at the Vaal River, South Africa triumphed in this prestigious competition – gaining worldwide praise for the outstanding organisation of these Championships and for the Protea Team’s magnificent win. SABAA President, Protea Angler and Lowrance SA Brand Ambassador, Craig Fraser, said the team pulled together and worked collectively to win a Gold Medal in the Team event. Craig and Justy Varkevisser also took Gold Medals home for the best boat overall (Finishing 3rd on Day 1, 1st on Day 2 and 1st on Day 3), and they caught the biggest fish at the event. Craig and Justy had numerous electronics on-board… among them was Lowrance, of course! slide
