Alright bass anglers, time for everyone to get their information and comments in on what they want to do next year. We need to get together to pick a site for the State BASS Alternates tournament, club schedules, rules, vote on officers/members, etc.

Sounds like the Ultimate Angler is having 3 events: Blue Lake, Lake Vermilion and Pokegama Lake, Grand Rapids. The UAC BASS club may fish these but needs to decide.

I have spoken to many people and there seems to be several things that people want, I'll try to list them.

• Tournaments -
  • 2 person teams
  • boater - nonboater (all season)
• Bag limits - looks like this will be either 5 or 6 bass bags, all season. Votes will determine it. Main point for both is that a single angler has a chance, but if you go with 6 fish they cannot carry the 6th fish and continue to fish bass, since it's illegal to call down to a limit. But if 5 were the limit, everyone could bring their best 5 to the scale.
• Tournament Schedules
  • Saturdays only
  • Day of week - Wednesdays or Thursdays
• Meeting dates - Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, 6:00-7:30pm, Powerhouse Bar. In past it was Wed.
• Marine General wants a list of bass lures that they can add to their store and want us to provide them with one. I'll have a separate post for this, please post there.
• etc

Please post your comments and let's get everyone out fishing in one or more clubs that work for them.
