Applying our collective knowledge to Folsom gave us a good start towards our trophy-hunting goals. Bass fishermen live for that little 'tug' on their line. Trophy bassers often go days with no tug to reinforce their enthusiasm. So, to motivate members we established a big fish award for our monthly outings, only fish over five pounds qualifying for the small prize. It took a while for all of us to shift from a tournament mentality to thinking about one big bite.
Education is an important function of our club.
These top quality speakers provided education but, equally important, they helped keep our programs exciting. CAST holds outings on lakes all across the country, where volunteer bass fishermen host handicapped and abused children for an afternoon of fishing fun. Our club has enjoyed great success, due in large part to a great bunch of sponsors that have donated products and services to the club for raffles. Based on the positive feedback we've received, we think we're on the right track. Or, email me directly.
