Coastal Asphalt is proud to announce that our own Chris Jones helped South Carolina earn the top spot in the 2015 Old Milwaukee B.A.S.S. Nation Southern Divisional Championship.
The fishing tournament, held in April on the Pee Dee River Basin in Georgetown, S.C., included a competition between states. The combined catch of South Carolina’s team weighed at 288 pounds to capture first place. Alabama was second with 242 pounds and Georgia garnered third with 227 pounds.
“It was special to win an event of this size at home,” Jones said. “To have it here, in our backyard, it was special. It was truly a team effort.”
For taking the crown, the South Carolina team received a Triton 189 TRx rigged with Mercury outboard, Lowrance electronics and a MotorGuide trolling motor. The complete package is valued at $33,340.
Jones is a Salesperson and Estimator on our Coastal Asphalt team and his duties include developing new business and expanding current client relationships. He is a member of the Conway Bassmasters, is married to Misty, and has two children, Noah and Bailey.
