There are 2 ways you can join. One is to join a local club in your area. Another is to create your own club at your school or in your community.

 

Membership is divided into 3 buckets. $10 goes to B.A.S.S. for a youth membership which includes a magazine subscription to B.A.S.S. Times. $30 goes to B.A.S.S. Nation to help with the cost of the High School and Junior National Championship. Last but not least, $20 goes to us for your state level membership.

 

We are your local Kansas Bass Nation that puts on your events in and around the State. Once you are a member all you have to do is join our events. Teams consist of 2 anglers and a boat captain. The boat captain does not get to compete.

 

 If you're interested in joining please text 785-466-6564 or email Tate Herrman, TateHerrman@yahoo.com and we can get you onto the 1st step of registering with an existing or creating a new club.
