Young angler wins "Fish Tales" contest

We are happy to announce that Ethan Moore, 4, of James Island has won our "Fish Tales" video contest.

For sharing his awesome story of how he landed this lunker bass, Ethan wins a Shimano Symetre 4000FJ spinning reel paired with a 7-foot Clarus rod.

Tideline's cameras were rolling when Ethan told his story during the Charleston Boat Show in January. Ethan caught this fat fish at a pond near his home, where he lives with his parents, Richie and Aggie Moore, and brother Rhett.

Ethan was one of more than 30 folks told their tales at the boat show, and their names went into a hat for the drawing for a rod and reel.

To see the all of the "Fish Tales" - along with other videos and photographs - please visit our video page here .
