2020 Ozark Anglers BASS Fantasy Fishing League

[abkeenan]

Ladies and Gents,

It's that time of year again for the kick off of the BASS Fantasy Fishing season. This year we are going to mix it up. In years past we have just gone on the honor system of sending one bait at the end of the season as your "league entry fee". While it was fun, there were too many participants that did not end up sending baits.

So instead this year we are just going to do a $10 up front entry fee. Roughly the cost of any worthwhile bait these days. PayPal would be preferable as that is the easiest method for most, including me. I can also do Venmo as an option. If you don't have either of those payment systems then I can accept cash through the mail if you are willing to take on that risk of mailing cash (I am not dealing with checks).  I would take no liability in money lost in the mail.  League entry fee is due by the start of the Bass Master Classic (Friday, March 6th). If you have not paid by that time then you will not be eligible to win prizes in the league even if you continue to participate in filling out rosters every event. Once I get an idea of how many entries we have I will have you all PM me here with payment info on how to get the $10 fee to me.

The prizes will be in the form of Tackle Warehouse gift cards at various values. The value of those gift cards will be determined on interest and amount of people that join the league. The payout will scale accordingly from 1st prize to an agreed upon (by the league majority) last winning place.

Example: 25 entries x $10 = $250 in pot TW Gift Cards

1st - $100  2nd - $75  3rd - $50 4th - $25 - Something along these lines.

For those of you new to fantasy fishing its very simple and requires very little effort or skill. The only thing you need to do is FILL OUT A TEAM EVERY WEEK there is an event. You miss one tournament event then it is hard to compete for prizes as it is hard to make up those lost points. See above link for more info.

Please register your name as the same name you have here on Ozark Anglers as it's easier for everyone to identify each other.

To join the league find the OZARK ANGLERS group I've created after you've registered an account. It is marked as private as to not let a bunch of people into the league.

 

Group name: OZARK ANGLERS

Password: smallmouth

 

 

Please respond here on this thread for those that plan to participate so I can get an idea of how many will be joining.

BASS will have some familiar faces back (Palaniuk, Swindle have left MLF) as well as some of the bigger sticks from FLW. Should be better fields than last year.

Thanks and good luck this year!

Thanks Brett for setting this up.

I am in.

I'm sure most of you know, but there are a bunch of other leagues sponsored by tackle companies that are open to joining such as Tackle Warehouse, Spro, and AFTCO.  If they are setup as Public, you can join them for free and have a shot at winning free tackle.

This is good info. All you have to do is join those groups.They are free. It doesn't require any extra effort either. Once you set you roster/team for the event/tournament it is set for every group that you belong to. So you don't have to enter a team for each individual group. It's one and done.
