One week left for Trophy Bass Retreat giveaway

Ray Scott, legendary founder of BASSmasters and owner the Trophy Bass Retreat in Pintlala, has donated a comprehensive fishing package to help raise awareness about Alabama Black Belt Adventures and support its mission. Scott serves on the organization’s board of directors. The package includes 3 nights lodging at the retreat, 2 days of fishing, and meals for the contest winner and guest. Visit alabamablackbeltadventures.com to enter this free contest. The winner will be announced Wednesday, June 1. “The entire Black Belt region has some of the best fishing in the country,” said Scott. “That’s why I chose to live and fish there. Combined with the variety of hunting and tourist sites, we are talking about a special part of the South that families can visit. I want local businesses to benefit from increased tourism of all kinds.” Launched in 2009, ALBBA is an initiative to promote the abundance of natural resources, vast outdoor recreational opportunities, and cultural heritage of Alabama’s Black Belt region.
