Club Details

The Nelson County Bassmasters is a member of the national B.A.S.S. organization and the Virginia B.A.S.S. Federation. We compete in the Virginia B.A.S.S. Federation Region 2 Tournaments. In addition we have six club tournaments a year and occasionally have an open tournament or two. The lakes we normally fish are: Smith Mountain Lake, Bugg's Island, Lake Gaston, Lake Anna, Chickahominy River, Lake Moomaw and the Potomac River.

The club is dedicated to improving bass fishing skills for all ages, genders, and races. We are a catch and release club who tries to conserve our natural resources. Of course we do all of this for the sheer enjoyment of fishing. Club members share tips and techniques with other club members and strive to make ourselves better anglers.

The winning weights for all out Tournaments so far  has probably been some of the best in recent seasons.

All the tournament results are posted as well as the standings fot the year.
