Welcome to the cyber home of Big Bend B.A.S.S. We are a B.A.S.S. Federation
affiliated bass club located in Tallahassee Florida dedicated to having a good
time at the expense of the local bass.
What We Do
The purpose of our club is to:
A. Help the membership become more skilled bass
fishermen.
B. Attempt to increase the enjoyment of bass fishing among our
members.
C. Attempt to promote fellowship among our members
D. Attempt to make
bass fishing a more enjoyable sport through conservation practices and
sportsmanlike conduct.
Our club meets once per month on the second Wednesday of
the month. At this meeting we discuss any club business and draw partners for
the upcoming tournaments which are held on various lakes and rivers in the North
Florida-South Georgia area. Our tournaments are generally held on the second
weekend following the meeting. We fish nine tournaments, one per month January through
September with each angler accruing points for the year. The leader in points after these nine tournaments is awarded the title of Bass Man of the Year
and is awarded a cash prize. At the end of the year in October we fish a
"Classic" tournament at which the top six anglers from the previous
nine tournaments fish for prize money that is set aside from the fees collected
to fish the monthly tournaments. The site for the classic is determined by the
tournament committee and is a neutral site out of the area. For the non top six anglers there is also a cash prize
awarded to the angler finishing highest in the classic.
Benefits of Big Bend B.A.S.S. Membership
Among the benefits of membership in our club is the Federation Membership. This
allows members to receive B.A.S.S. Times, a monthly newspaper that contains
articles relating to tactics and techniques, nationwide coverage of conservation
issues and coverage of the B.A.S.S. professional tours. Federation membership
also provides amateur anglers a road to the B.A.S.S. Bassmaster's Classic. The Florida chapter of the Federation consists of four regions in the
state of Florida, each one of which holds a tournament as a qualifier for the
State Championship Tournament. The top twelve anglers in the State Championship
move on to the Southern Regional tournament. The top angler from each state
moves to the National tournament and finally the top from each region are sent
to the Bassmaster's Classic to compete against the top professionals in the
sport.
