Title: Ages for clubs and tourneys
Post by: mikesmiph on October 04, 2009, 06:25:23 AM
I want to get my grandaughter into a club, and possibly some tourneys. She loves to fish, and is getting very good at it. Problem is, she will only be 9 yrs old in March, and I'm hearing minimum ages of 11-14. Anyone know what the age limits are in most clubs/tourneys? I plan to join a club this fall too, but would like her with me. Still looking for the best one for us. Thanks

In our club The Oakland County Bass Anglres our age start out at 14. I am not sure what the rest of the clubs are like. The Bass Federation of Michigan Starts the kids out at 11. We have a State Championship In June. I am the Youth Director for the TBF of Michigan. I am glad to see that there is another generation of Anglers comming up. Look forward to see her in two years fishing our event. If you are looking for more info on the TBF go to our web site. michiganTBf.com

It was the Oakland County Club that i was planning to join. Looked like they had themost to offer youth. Just wished she didn't have to wait. I sure hope nobody cares if I bring her to meetings.
