U.S.A. Bassin National Team Tournament Trail marks the start of its 6th year in 2008.

 

We would like to introduce you to our organization and our incredible growth thus far going into the 2008 season. 

 

We are a grass roots team tournament trail that caters to the amateur angler and promotes a "family-friendly" atmosphere. This concept allows the youth to be involved and experience competitive angling, while learning good sportsmanship. We offer free membership for anyone under the age of 16. Our low membership fees of $25.00, entry fees starting at $25.00 for a weeknight, and $50.00 for a weekend tournament per boat/team makes it very affordable and fun for everyone!
