Notice

We are a group of fishermen who first of all enjoy fishing, and second, enjoy sharing our knowledge with other fishermen.

First established as a small group of 8 fishermen in Fulton NY in the mid 1980's, the club has grown to now having 50+ members. We hold our membership to 30 "active" members who will be fishing on a regular basis, to make launching manageable. The 20 plus other members are fishing in the BASS northern circuit, Bass Master "Elite" series (non-boater), N.Y.S. BASS Federation events, Anglers Choice, and other clubs where the payouts are larger. These members do enter our tournaments from time to time when ever they have a open weekend, and thereby bring back some very useful and up to date information.

We like to consider ourselves as an "entry level" or "teaching" club. Now by no means does that mean that our fisherman are inexperienced. What that does mean is that we share our expertise with all members.  

Our winning member must at the end of the day show us the lure that worked the best for him that day and then tell us the type of structure that he worked.  He does not have to tell us the actual place, just the type of structure. 

Our club is a member of the N.Y.S. BASS Federation, we also sponsor a  Junior Bassmasters club, "The GOB Junior Bassmasters". Our members also donate their time and boats to take the Juniors fishing for their state tournament.

We meet at RFH's Hide-a-way on Route 57, 2 miles north of Phoenix NY. We only have meetings during January, February, March and April each year. This is when we get all the business end of the club done, and then we go fishing. If anything needs to be addressed during the year, we conduct a short meeting at the next fishing tournament. Meetings are held on Sunday evenings and are set up to avoid "big weekends"  (Super bowl. NASCAR etc) Contact President Tom Hudson  for the next meeting date or to join our club. Notice, our membership is full for the 2010 season. Please contact us after January 1st 2011 to see if there is an opening.

Please enjoy our website. And regardless if you are a seasoned fisherman, or a weekend warrior, be sure to check out the winning lures and techniques that is posted at the end of each tournament.
