The Lake Worth Boynton Beach Bassmasters’ 2015/2016 season is in full swing. They kicked off the new season in October at the Lock 7 ramp at the north end of Lake Okeechobee. They swung to the south end of the lake on November 22nd, launching from the Clewiston public boat ramp, where 18 anglers, 9 boaters and 9 co-anglers, set out for a day of competition.
