Johnny Neil Phillips secured first place (A Division) in The Upper Limit, proving that true anglers never stop competing. A force in the bass fishing scene in his younger years, Johnny, now 68, has shifted his passion to the surf, chasing pompano along the Panhandle from Pensacola to South Walton. Not only did he take home the top spot, but he also weighed in the tournament’s heaviest fish at 3.5 pounds. Congratulations, Johnny—see you at the next one!
