JT Bagwell Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I am a longtime member of B.A.S.S. and FLW Outdoors. That might change in the future, but for the time being I think I paid like 3 years in advance. JT Bagwell Quote
bassnleo Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Just renewed My FLW membership for 3 years. BASS one is up soon and I'm not sure if I'll renew or not. Club is no longer affiliated with BASS, most info in the magazine can be read online for free so I'm kinda leaning toward not renewing. Quote

Low_Budget_Hooker Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Don't need it, I'm a member of BassResource.com Seriously, anything in the mag that I might be interested in, usually gets discussed here anyway. Quote
BLUESKY Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I have been a life member since the early eighties. Lots of good articles, although I agree that it appears to be more profit motavated than in the past but what company isnt today. If you want conservation news there is plenty of info on that in the Bass Times, also tips and techniques and much more. Just my $.02 worth. Quote
Bean Counter Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I was a member since the 70's till last year when I didn't renew. I just wasn't getting anything out of it anymore. Quote

Captain Cali Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I was a member for 1 year. Didn't see the point to renew. This place has it all. 8-) Quote
Super User senile1 Posted January 11, 2007 Super User Posted January 11, 2007 I'm a member. Been one of and on since 1978. I don't get a lot of benefit out of it. I just treat it as a subscription to a magazine. I've been a member for a number of years and it has been for the magazine as well. Quote
HPBB Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Member since 2000 I am in a BASS affiliated club, so I have to belong to BASS. I am not leaving my club anytime soon. I am getting board of the mag I have gotten: Bassin Feild & stream In fisherman and FLW mag gotten board of them to, don't get any of them any more. After a while its the same thing over and over again. I will continue to be a member. If your in an affiliated club, or fish their tournaments you have to be. There are thing about BASS I do not like and things I do. I know lots of guys bash BASS, and that is there opinion, I respect that BASS has evolved and will continue. It may change into something you like or disslike. Just remember on thing. If it wasn't for BASS, alot of thing we take for granted in bass fishing would not be there today. I am not talking the mag, I talking about the organization, B.A.S.S. "I just signed up! guess i made a mistake from what i hear. time will tell. (haven't received my first issue)" T-rig I don't think you made a mistake Quote
Super User senile1 Posted January 11, 2007 Super User Posted January 11, 2007 Good point, HPBB. I've never been a tournament angler, but I am thankful for what B.A.S.S. has done in the past to help the sport. Every small organization that becomes large has its problems once the bureaucracy begins to take hold. Quote
VekolBass Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I'm a member--mainly for the magazine subscription. I'm rather in neutral about both the organization and the magazine, and renewing will be doubtful. Quote
mferris Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 i'm a member..i've been renewing 1 year at a time..each year saying i'm not going to renew but the magazine gives me something to look through during the winter.. Quote
