Looking for small bass tournaments

[ricqik]

I'm considering looking for some smaller clubs to join, fish and learn. I don't have the $$ to make big tourny's.

[luckycrank]

I NOT QUIT SURE WHAT YOU MEAN SMALL VS. LARGE TOURNAMENTS

OR LOCATION BUT OUR CLUB(SOUTHERN MN BASS TOUR) HAS A TOURNAMENT ONCE A MONTH ON SOUTH CENTRAL LAKES.

If you are looking for any tournament information you should go to Classicbass.com, There is alot of tournaments on there some big and some small with the contact information on there.

Or If you are lookin to join a club you could go to the Minnesota Bass Fedartaion website...http://www.mnbf.org Right at the top it will say join a club just click there and fill out the info. You can join a club as a boater or non-boater, and that will give you the chance to learn lot more... Good luck

Small clubs like 15 boat types tourny. I've thought about extreme and FM but they look like it's too big for me. My biggest tourny I've been in is the Minnetonka Classic, it's not quite what I'm looking, too crowded for me.

[HellaBass]

Our club does stay within an hour of the metro for most tournaments, but we get out & about sometimes. There are other clubs to, I can help you out if a club sounds good, I can get contact info for several, search Rich Lindgren on Google and you will be able to find a way to contact me, since even spelling likns out if forbidden

[Central Bassman]

Your Welcome Lucky Crank... Anytime...

[HellaBass]

Really.... what club are you with? Care to disclose your real name?

[Central Bassman]

I left after last years state... It was more about fishing aggrest my own team then anything esle!!!

[HellaBass]

aggrest???

[Central Bassman]

It was more of a Competition between teammates... then it was having fun and learning

[HellaBass]

That is a shame, start a new club

[Central Bassman]

Was thinking about it... How hard is it???

[HellaBass]

Pretty easy, couple forms and 6 names to put on a roster. Where are you at?? I may have a few guys that would be interested in joining....

if you want drop me an email, rich at richlindgren.com

[Central Bassman]

i think i have the guys to do it... Its "Do i have time" more then anything!!

[HellaBass]

There is really no requirements for how much you guys fish, as long as you have 6 guys, you can qualify however you want for State.

[Central Bassman]

Ok... Thanks Hella i see what i can do!!!

[HellaBass]

if you drop me an email or something I can get you all the forms and due requirements

[Central Bassman]

OLY whats the name of you club??

[OLY]

FFC bassmasters (friends of finny critters) Its a pretty lame name but the club has been around for like 25 years now and the name has just stuck.

[hey__bob]

Lucky crank, do you have any openings for this year? What are the dates and Lakes?

Thanks,

Bob

[luckycrank]

hey_bob, I am no longer running these events they have been cancelled for 2007 all entries have already been sent back, we had good response for this year however there was a conflict between my-self and the other person who was supposed to be helping with these events. with this being said I felt it was in my best interest, as well as the fisherman fishing these events to cancel them so thats what my decision was. sucks cause I was looking so foward to fishing this year.
