fisherman2014 Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Everyone talks about going tournament fishing. I know that I'm a little young and I don't even have my own boat, but some of my friends do and I would really like to enter some small tournaments. I was just wondering what the easiest way to find and enter them was. Quote
Super User 5bass Posted June 3, 2011 Super User Posted June 3, 2011 Most people who run tournaments will leave flyers laying around at tackle shops near the lake or at marinas. Whenever you're at the ramp, just ask around, somebody will have the info you're looking for. Tournaments are easy to find. Quote
fishnabarrel Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Welcome to the Boards! i would try to join a local club, club tournaments are smaller and a very good place to start 1 Quote
fisherman2014 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Posted June 3, 2011 In order to get into a club tournament, I wouldn't have to be sponsored or put up a large entry fee, correct? Quote
PondBoss Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 A local club I'm thinking of joining has a $40 fee per tourny. $50 to join the club but thats it. Quote
Senkoman12 Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 join a club. i knew hardly anything about bass fishing and never fished tournaments until i joined a club. do it for your own good. i learned so much also. now im one of the top members after only 3 years. i pay $35 a year to be in the club $40 for club touraments and $75-$100 for state tourneys(only fish 1 maybe 2 a year). most clubs fundraise to pay for tournaments. i only pay for my $35 dues and my tournaments are paid for by fundraising.
