Hartley’s Hawgs was proud to be represented at the 17th Annual High School Fishing World Finals and National Championship held on beautiful Lake Cumberland in Kentucky, June 24–27, 2026. This incredible event brought together 411 teams from across the United States and Canada, making it one of the largest and most prestigious high school fishing tournaments in the world.
We want to recognize and congratulate our Hartley’s Hawgs teams that competed against the very best high school anglers in North America:
🎣 Caleb & Isaac
🎣 Cooper & Landon
🎣 Kyler & Henry
We couldn’t be more proud of the dedication, sportsmanship, and hard work these young anglers displayed throughout the week. They represented Hartley’s Hawgs, their families, and our community with class both on and off the water.
A special thank you goes out to our volunteer boat captains, parents, sponsors, and supporters who make experiences like this possible. Your time, encouragement, and commitment help provide these student anglers with opportunities to compete at the highest level.
Congratulations to all of the teams that competed, and especially to our Hartley’s Hawgs anglers for an outstanding week on Lake Cumberland. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for this talented group!
