A March opener on Geist means big sacks! Good looking schedule....

How many boats you guys average?
I am planning on fishing this region and the shafer/freeman if they get a director for it.

Is the weekend ramp fee $30?

[Jason1]

unfortunatly yes.
But it is a little cheaper before may

[Hoosiers]

Last year I think we averaged around 30 boats. Before Memorial Day weekend the ramp fee is reduced to $14 I believe. After that I think it is $33. I Look forward to seeing you guys this year. The guys are great in this division and are some of the best sticks in Indiana.

Nope, it's 33... But most of us are close so it's cheaper then driving south

[Hoosiers]

Guys/Gals, don't forget the tournament on 5/20 on Geist is an "Open" event. You don't have to be a USA Bassin member to fish this tournament.

Looking forward to a great year of fishing!

I fished there once with Zach G. Seems like he said it's kept high to keep the boat traffic down. There's only 1 ramp, and they make a killing!

With an average of 30 boats per tournament,

30 x 14 = $420
30 x 33 = $990

Wouldn't it be fun to have a boat ramp drawing in that kind of money?!?!


It's a really nice lake!

[Jason1]

Will be there 3/24 for the first one.
This will be my first year fishing the USA Bassin trail.

Just a reminder our first tournament is this Saturday on Geist. We will be taking off at approximately 7:45am. I have updated http://www.usabassin.com to reflect this. Last weekend there were a few 20+ pound bags brought to the scales, including one just over 27. This weekend is setting up to be another slug fest. Hope to see many of you there!
