No Central Div. this year?
Re: 2012 Tentative Schedule- PA Bass Federation Nation (BZ)
west division.....thats a fantastic schedule!
I just might try to find a way to fish! Mosquito in mid may, expect 15+ to win.
Shenango is a 3 fish limit, but in august is an amazing lake. I would expect 3 fish for 9-10lbs to win.
and Presque Isle.....enough said!

To All Bass Boat Central Readers:
The east and the central have been combined in Pa Bass Federation Nation. They were not getting enough participation in the central and they usually fish similar waters as the east. We are also hoping that this increases overall participation in the east.
The overall schedule for the Federation should be a great year for catching fish. Also, the payouts should be great! Last year, the West Districts paid out $2000 for first place, the East Districts paid out $1000 for first place, and the statewide circuit averaged $2400 for first place.

Is Erie the bay only or the entire lake?
Re: 2012 Tentative Schedule- PA Bass Federation Nation (dadam)
The entire lake if weather permits.
Re: 2012 Tentative Schedule- PA Bass Federation Nation (kimmel65)
I didn't know that Shenango lake was a three fish limit???
Erie is normally restricted to three fish as well.
JUSTIN

It is only a three fish limit. Any waters in Pa that is a 15 inch keeper you are only permitted to keep 4 fish. In tournaments they usually lower this to 3 fish per participant.
