FLETCHER SHYROCK joins TEAM TOPWATER


TOPWATER CLOTHING adds FLETCHER SHYROCK to the OUTSTANDING group of anglers who make up TEAM TOPWATER.

Fletcher Shryock is 25 years old and on March 26th he accomplished what he considered “the unthinkable.” He won the Lake Norman Southern Bass Master Open. This life changing experience is one that many anglers dream of. With a total 49.9 pounds bag, Fletcher set a new Lake Norman 3-Day Tournament record and this got him a spot at the Bassmaster Classic next February at Red River in Louisiana.

He grew up in the small town of Newcomerstown, Ohio. He had the dream of becoming a pro bass fisherman since he can remember as a child and he pursued it heavily. The natural ability came from his childhood- as Fletcher had only fished competitively for two years as an adult before winning the Southern Open at Lake Norman.

At age 13 Fletcher began racing motocross and earned an AMA Pro Motocross/Supercross license in 2006 which he held for three years. He made one Supercross Main Event within the injury filled three years of competition.

We are happy to have him back in one piece and on the water working hard. Topwater Clothing is proud to have Fletcher as part of the team!!
