Indiana Bass Federation Youth – Conservation – Fishing
Hardluck Bassmasters are looking for new members…
This is an active IBF (Indiana Bass Federation) club. Our club started in 1976 and was based out of the Indianapolis Police Department and for many years membership was restricted to only active Law Enforcement officers. Recently our club has opened up to others of good moral character and no criminal background. Our club is a friendly bunch and plan on holding 6-8 club tournaments each year. The members of the club who are paid and active before the end of February will also be invited to fish the IBF Zone 2 Regional Championship. This was previously known as the Top 8 tournament. You will also be an official member to the Indiana Bass Federation, The Bass Federation (TBF) and MLF Big 5. You will receive the MLF Big 5 magazine BASS fishing. Our club will also be covered under the TBF insurance. Club dues are $100.
Our club tournaments are basically for fun. Entry is only $20.00 per man and the non boaters pay for the boaters entry and ramp fee. $15.00 goes to the pot and $5.00 to big bass. 45% to 1st place and 25% to 2nd place. leaving 30% to the club for expenses. Most tournaments are 6 to 10 fishermen.
Members wanting to fish must let the tournament director know their intentions to fish a particular tournament at least two days prior so a blind draw for partners can be conducted.
As of now our tournament schedule: TBA and subject to membership input.
Tom Foreman is the club secretary, his address is 1219 S Old US Hwy 31. Franklin, IN 46131, 317-979-4162. foremanrayt@comcast.net
