Texas B.A.S.S. Nation

Bassmasters’ Creed: I promise to create among my fellow anglers, and the public in general, an awareness of my Chapter’s and Society’s contributions to angling, conservation and outdoor recreation. I will encourage and instruct the youth of my community in the art of bass fishing. I pledge myself to full adherence to all conservation codes and to detect and report any polluter of our nation’s waters.

Non-Chapter (At Large) Registration Process

B.A.S.S. now allows “at-large” B.A.S.S. Nation membership. If you choose this option and do not join or start an affiliated chapter (club), you will still receive all benefits of membership except the right to compete in State B.A.S.S. Nation qualifying tournaments (Championship). If after becoming an at-large member, you decide to join an affiliated chapter to qualify to fish in state B.A.S.S. Nation qualifying tournaments (Championship), contact your Region Director and he will assist you in finding or starting a chapter (club).  Members of the “At Large” club must meet the following requirements:
