First of all, we are NOT the new guys on the block--this is the eighth year of the Senior Bass Tour. Things have changed however, primarily our name. For our first four years we had sponsorship from a local marine/RV dealer that is no longer in business. Thus the new name. The following questions/issues may come to mind as you ponder this organization, so what follows are some answers. If you have additional questions, just use the CONTACT US link to the left. 　　　　

The Tour will consist of 6 week-day tournaments with a year-end Classic. The schedule is available via the link to the left. The Tour will commence in April and have events each month, with the Classic in the Fall. All events will occur on Wednesday. The circuit will be a buddy format and prizes will be awarded based upon team results. Individuals may opt to fish alone but entry fees are on a per boat basis of $50 which includes a big bass component of $10. Five fish per boat can be weighed. No dead fish will be weighed. Complete rules and regulations are available via the link to the left.

　I am interested, how do I participate ? Simple, in order to fish any of the Ohio River Senior Bass events, you only have to register for the tournament(s). You can register at the ramp, but it will cost you an additional $2 !!　 Approximately 95% of the entry fees will be paid to the contestants. In order to recover expenses, approximately 5% will be with-held. All late-fee collections will be used to pay expenses. You will also receive a monthly newsletter that provides results and additional information concerning the events. In order to fish the Ohio River Senior Bass Tour events you must be 50 years of age on or before May 1, 2012.

Okay, how much to fish ? 　$50 per boat that includes a $10 entry into the big bass competition. 　As was the case last year, all members wishing to fish the Classic will be levied a $10 fee. All of the fees collected will be used to augment the Classic payouts.

　What about payouts ? 95% of the entry fees will be returned to the contestants. The number of places paid will be 1 for each 10 boats entered.　

Not new, but the over -all points champions will receive free entry into the 2013 events.　

Expect an assortment of door prizes at each tournament, as well as numerous prizes to be awarded at the Classic.

YES !! There will be an alternate species side pot again this year. 　That's a $5 per boat optional fee, and all the fees are paid to the team weighing the heaviest single non-blackbass.
