Elizabethtown Team Wins High School Fishing World Finals By Chelsea Peifer
Elizabethtown friends Anthony Cicero IV, 18, and Dakota Snyder, 17, have both been fishing since they could walk and like to spend as much time as they can on the Susquehanna River and at area lakes catching fish. All of that time and practice paid off when they put their skills to the test at The Bass Federation (TBF) Student Angler Federation’s (SAF) 10th annual High School Fishing World Finals in Florence, Ala., and won first place. Cicero and Snyder were among 389 high school teams from across the country competing at Pickwick Lake. The competition began on June 19, and the field was cut to 31 teams for the
final day on June 22. Winners were determined by the heaviest final-day weight. The Elizabethtown duo caught three bass weighing in at a total of 16 pounds, 6 ounces, that led them to earn the prestigious title of 2019 High School Fishing World Finals champions. “It felt awesome, like we were on top of the world,” said Cicero. Cicero and Snyder edged out their closest competitors, second-place winners Griffin Phillips and Fletcher Phillips of Mount Olive, Ala., by 1 pound, 9 ounces. Every fishing squad consisted of two high school anglers and one adult boat captain. Snyder said that at first, with nearly 400 boats out on the water, the lake felt crowded.
