Want to join a bass club?
I know a whole lot of people do not post on this forum, but I thought I would share this info anyhow. I am the tournament director of Kentucky Lake Bass Club, we have had many members in the club throughout many years of which I was not here and most of those members have moved on to circuits and bigger things. Well, we are just a have fun, commadarie type group who want to share techniques and stories. We are looking for more members to bring into this circle of fun. We only have 12 members and I know there are others who would join if they knew about us. I'll give you the details of our club and you can pass them on to someone you might know who would enjoy this.
Let's start of with the fee's, just $30 a year, period. There are 9 to 10 club tourneys a year and a classic, each tourney has a $20 gas fee to go from the co-angler to the boater, an optional 1st place pot of $10, optional big bass pot of $1, and an optional super bass pot (6+ lbs) of $1. We also have a kids tourney for the kids of the members in the club -- this consists of live bait or artificial, rough fish only (no bass or cats), and the members fish for the kids as well as the kids themselves and the kids get a trophy and a medal. We have an annual couples tourney as well where you bring your lady along and she gets the trophy. Also a sponsered special population tourney for the hadicapped in which anyone can attend and help catch fish for their person of choice where we give away over 20 rod an reel combos to top finishers, everyone gets a plaque and certificate, loaded tackle box and another rod and reel combo to 1st place, and many more prizes to these awesome competitors. Also a one bait tourney, a picnic, a christmas party and city involvement such as yardsales and parades. This club has been in existence for over 35 yrs and gets better every year. This is a full year of fun if anyone is interested. Just give me a call. Thanks.

Elijah,
Sounds kind of like the club I used to belong to in Owensboro. It's a lot more fun to fish a tourney that is all about the fun, and less about the cut throat tactics, not meaning to put down any other club.
What kind of schedule do you guys fish? All day tournaments, or some nights? BTW, I don't like night tournaments....LOL but I know you won't change just for me.
Also, since I live about 70 miles from Eddyville, attending the meetings would be tough. How's that work out?
Now if my back will miraculously get well, I'd be very, very interested as opposed to just interested. LOL
Thanks for the answers.
Tight lines and God Bless
Danny
RE: Want to join a bass club?
We fish all day tourney's except the Hot August Open which has been switched to an evening tourney (3pm-9pm). As far as the distance situation, you can fish all tourneys you want, but you must attend 75% of the club functions to be eligible for the year end classic (as well as other requirements), and you must be present for nominations and voting for next years offices. You can be chosen for an office and not be present but not able to vote.
RE: Want to join a bass club?
I am interested in joing a club I was wondering where your meetings are located and where your tourneys take off from?
