A Message From The OBN Executive

With a recent B.A.S.S Nation rule change, we have just been informed last week that we NO LONGER have to send out Boaters with Non-Boaters at our OBN Qualifier.
If we do not have equal #’s (more boaters than Non’s), there is a good chance a few boaters will be sent out fishing with an observer/scrutineer in the boat or maybe even solo for the day.
This information has already been distributed to your Chapter President/Board members.
Bottom line, we ask that all clubs send in their entry fees ASAP as the August 9 deadline is rapidly approaching!
This may affect how we deal with our Qualifier entry process in future years, but for 2024 we ask that you simply send them in as you receive them.
In other words, lets get the ball in motion right now and get the boaters that are waiting for Nons entered!
As always, all pairings will be randomly drawn and announced at the Friday night Angler meeting.
Any questions, please feel free to reach out to one of the OBN Exec members.
Get Your Entries In NOW!
The Mississauga Bassmasters and their Qualifier Hosting Committee have done a tremendous amount of work for this year’s event!
It is shaping up to be a great event without a doubt!
From prizes to logistics and not to mention a barely touched fishery, we cannot wait to see the weights brought to the scale!
It’s a smallmouth ‘Disneyland’ from what we are hearing from anglers that have been practicing and getting to know the waters.
Updates to follow regarding many more sponsorship prizes for this event.
Please note: Updated rules have been sent out to your club Presidents.
Also, please follow the event page on Facebook for the most up to date info regarding this years Qualifier
