lynyrdsky1 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Hey everyone, As some of you know on here I am a senior this year which means this year is the last chance I'll get to take advantage of High School bass fishing. I really do not know how to start it. At my school there is very little interest and very few adults who would want to devote their time to help as in boating. Most just do not have the time in the day to help (like my dad) so I understand. My main goal is really not to do this for me but is to help bring bass fishing as sport to people who do not really understand it. What I think I need to do first is get people interested. I have an idea of hand picking out some what of a kit for people to get started but the hardest part is......money. Because most are not interested I do not expect anyone wanting to pay for anything. What I have not been able to find out is am I able to make a club of kids that are not just from one school and also how to join the other High School Fishing circuits. The only one I am able to find any info on is the Bass Federation but I can not find anything on the B.A.S.S. Any ideas would help tremendously. Austin Quote

Dalton Tam Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 I think I could help you. Started a bass club at my school when I was a sophomore and ran it through my senior year. You first need to hold a meeting just to see what interest you have. You really may be surprised. If you have a good turn out. Ask to see who would be willing to pay dues. We joined the TBF last year and I would strongly suggest you go to the world finals at dardanelle. It's an amazing experience. We had a bass club for two years before we heard about the tbf. We didn't require an adult inthe boat. It's risky but it worked for all of our highschool tournaments. U can start by charging 20 dollar dues for just the highschool club. That will cover there t shirts and u will still have plenty left over trust me. Then when u find out who is serious about fishing. U can get to join the tbf with you. You will be required to have atleast seven members to join the tbf. So try to promote the tbf big time. This should help u get started and I've typed enough if u have any more questions shoot me a pm Quote
