Congratulations to Jaxson Anderson, the 2025 Nowata Hillbilly Handfishing Tournament Junior Division Winner.

The picture on the left was his winning catch, weighing in at 45.8 pounds.

Jaxson caught the fish on the right a day or so after the tournament, and it was Jaxson's personal best, tipping the scales at 54 pounds!

Jaxson is 12 years old from Nowata, Oklahoma, and his pround mom, Shaunda, shared these pictures.
