Justbass11 Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 I keep getting requests to be a lifetime member of B.A.S.S. Do you think it’s worth it??? I don’t care to much for what you get to join. If they take the tackle bag out and that hat that’s too small and replace it with a lews reel I might think about it. Just saying, Anyway happy fishing. Look forward too your reply’s Quote

Super User WRB Posted September 20, 2021 Super User Posted September 20, 2021 I am a charter life B.A.S.S. Member since 1968. Free Bassmaster magazines and B.A.S.S. Times over 50 years made it we’ll worth it for me. Never received any lure packages or anything else for being a life member. I wouldn’t be a new B.A.S.S. member today, too many good bass fishing resources available like this site. Tom 2 Quote

Super User Bankbeater Posted September 20, 2021 Super User Posted September 20, 2021 Nope. As stated above, there is a wealth of information online if you know where to look. Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted September 20, 2021 Super User Posted September 20, 2021 Are you fishing BASS tournaments/clubs where you are required to be a member to fish? That's another thing to consider. Quote
HaydenS Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 For our high school tourneys, we have to be a registered BASS member I pay $10 every year. You get two really good (IMO) magazines every month, and some stickers. If you get the lifetime membership, you get a reel and line, lures, etc. Some of the articles in the magazines, 25%-50%, make it onto the website. Just depends if you want. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted September 21, 2021 Global Moderator Posted September 21, 2021 I'm a member of BASS, but I can't tell you the last time I opened one of the magazines I get. Quote
Super User MN Fisher Posted September 21, 2021 Super User Posted September 21, 2021 I was a member many years ago, rejoined last year because of the good memories of highly informative articles. Very disappointed - I get ten times as much info here than I do from the mag...gonna let my membership fade back into the woodwork when it's up. Quote
papajoe222 Posted September 21, 2021 Posted September 21, 2021 I was a member for almost three decades. If I had foreseen that, I would have chosen a lifetime membership and saved some cash. if you plan on continuing fishing competitively, it may be a worthwhile investment 1 Quote

That's another thing to consider. It's really the only reason I'd ever join again. I've been an officer in a club and heard their dog and pony about benefits, and really all I saw was an insurance salesman. So, between that and some crazy path to the Classic, they don't offer a ton. Quote
Super User Log Catcher Posted September 21, 2021 Super User Posted September 21, 2021 I get an e-mail at least once a week trying to get me sign up with them again. I don't need anything they give you for signing up again and I can get as good or better information in many other places. Quote
volzfan59 Posted September 23, 2021 Posted September 23, 2021 Depending on your age, I think that it's well worth it. Now that I'm in my 60's it's probably not worth it to me. I wish that I had purchased a lifetime membership in my mid 20's when I got serious about bass fishing. 1 Quote
