Jason Burroughs of Hodges, SC, weighed in a two-day total of 10 bass totaling 30 pounds, 5 ounces Sunday to win the Walmart Bass Fishing League South Carolina Division super tournament on Lake Hartwell. For his victory, Burroughs earned $6,489.  Shane Cantley of Lugoff, S.C., weighed in a two-day total of 10 bass totaling 23 pounds, 14 ounces Sunday to win $2,095 in the co-angler division. Complete results can be found at FLWOutdoors.com. The top 40 boaters and 40 co-anglers based on point standings will qualify for the Oct. 3-5 Regional Championship on Lake Guntersville in Guntersville, Ala. Boaters will compete for a top award of a Ranger Z518 with a 200-horsepower Evinrude or Mercury outboard and a Chevy Silverado, while co-anglers will fish for a new Ranger Z518 with a 200-horsepower Evinrude or Mercury outboard. The BFL is a 24-division circuit devoted to weekend anglers, with 120 tournaments throughout the season, five in each division. The top 40 boaters and co-anglers from each division qualify for a regional tournament and compete to finish in the top six, which then qualifies them for one of the longest-running championships in all of competitive bass fishing – the Walmart BFL All-American presented by Chevy. Top winners in the BFL can move up to the Ever Start Series or even the Walmart FLW Tour.
