OutdoorHub 10.06.14
NY The Bass Federation (NYTBF) announces their 2015 tournament schedule. Our goal is to provide exciting opportunities for anglers of all levels structured under a draw format where boaters are randomly paired with non-boaters (co-anglers) for an eight hour tournament day. Each angler competes only in their respective category with boater entry fees of $100 and the co-angler fees at $50. First Place boater at each point tournament is guaranteed $1,000 and the end of season two-day State Team Championship guarantees the first place boater $2,500. NYTBF membership is required for participation unless otherwise stated. For complete details to go www.nytbf.com.
