Six wounded service members sponsored by Hope For The Warriors have been invited by B.A.S.S. to participate in Toyota Trucks All-Star Week. The wounded heroes will be paired with six Bassmaster Elite Series anglers to fish on a private lake near Montgomery, Ala., on Saturday (July 30).
Elite Series anglers participating are Keith Poche and Greg Vinson, both of Alabama, and four anglers eliminated from the All-Star competition. Anglers will be given 4 hours to fish, and final results will be revealed on the Bassmaster stage.
“I look forward to getting the chance to spend some time with someone that’s given me what I have today, and has given me an opportunity to fish and live my dream," said Poche. "I’m very appreciative of them, and I’m thankful for who they are what they’ve done for this country."
Here's a list of the participating Warriors:
> HM2 Dean Carr, U.S. Navy (Ret.) -- Jacksonville, N.C.
