TRUSSVILLE — Some Hewitt-Trussville High School students will soon be gone fishin’.
The Trussville City Board of Education on Jan. 26 approved a fishing team club for the high school.
Principal Tim Salem said the team is sponsored by Spanish teacher Nicholas Lemonds and will be a part of the Student Angler Federation.
The club will compete in sanctioned fishing expeditions locally and regionally. There could be scholarship opportunities for members of the team.
Salem said there has been interest in forming the club for a couple years.
