🎣 Bassmaster Pro James Niggemeyer Saves Man and Toddler in Lake Murray Rescue Dramatic Rescue on Tournament Day On the morning of Thursday, May 12, 2011, Lake Murray was the setting for the first day of the Bassmaster Evan Williams Bourbon Carolina Clash—but for professional angler James Niggemeyer and his Marshal, Russ Sorrells, the focus quickly shifted from fishing to a desperate rescue. Speeding toward their initial fishing spot, the pair spotted a situation often warned about, but rarely witnessed: a father and his young son struggling in the water, their own vessel still running dangerously close by.
