Last week, six Tallassee anglers competed in the 2026 Alabama Student Angler Bass Fishing Association Lake Pickwick Classic. Pickwick is located in northwest Alabama on the Tennessee River, running 50 miles from the Pickwick Landing Dam in Tennessee to Wilson Dam in Muscle Shoals. Anglers launched from McFarland Park in Florence on Friday. 

Pickwick is best known for its smallmouth bass fishing, but is also home to largemouth and spotted bass.
