Lone Star Outdoor News contributor Nate Skinner and his teammate, Tim Young were named the 2019 Anglers of the Year for the Galveston Redfish Series on Saturday, August 17. Â
The duo secured their title with a 2nd Place finish in the GRS Championship on Saturday, weighing in 15.87 pounds. Â
The Galveston Redfish Series included 5 events and the Anglers of the Year results were determined by a point system. Teams earned points based on where they placed in each tournament, and the final point totals included each Team’s best 4 finishes. (Each Team’s lowest point value/finish from an event was dropped and the final point total was a cumulative value from each team’s best 4 events.)
Skinner and Young placed in the top 3 in 3 out of the 5 GRS events, including a 1st place finish, a 3rd place finish, and a 2nd place finish. Â These successes helped them rack up a total of 384 points to take 1st place as Anglers of the Year over the very competitive and highly skilled field of anglers.
