It’s only natural when you are doing well at a sport that you start to want to compete. Fishermen for years have been competing in the art of bringing in the perfect catch. It might be just a couple of guys together ribbing each other about who has caught the biggest or the best. It doesn’t matter what the situation. It’s all about the perfect day fishing and the competition from skilled pros.
It’s only natural that when you do well in something you make it a bit more fun and challenging by introducing competition. Competitive fishing became mainstream in the 1960’s when the first bass fishing tournamets started. Since then bass fishing has grown in leaps and bounds. Now there are magazines on bassin’, books on bass, gained mo Professional anglers are dedicated to the sport of bass fishing and to helping others to better enjoy their time fishing. The first bass fishing tournaments were started in the late 1960’s. Since that time the bass fishing industry has grown by leaps and bounds. There are now magazines, books, television shows, online bass fishing games and web sites devoted to bass fishing. As well as that whole industries have sparked up around the art of bass fishing supplying anything that you could have dreamed of!
If you haven’t had a chance yet to check out a bass fishing tournament I highly recommend it.
A bass fishing tournament is a lot of fun for heaps of reasons. My favourite reasons are: (a) its an excuse to get away for a few days (b) I get to catch up with mates and (c) I love to check out the competition - whenever I watch the pros in action it gives me inspiration to get out there and conquer my pond.

If you have been around for a while you will realise that bassin’ is getting more and more popular. I don’t know why this is so but the stats say at least 50 million Americans list bass fishing is a hobby. When you consider that Bass are found in many other places in the world the number of people is truly amazing.
Of course, I can understand the joys of bassin’ as a sport but for me a lot of the pleasure is being out in the open rather than in a stuffed up box of an office. I often like to go fishing with my buddies but I don’t mind being alone as well! Going fishing is one of those sports where it is good with a group and just as good on your own. You might be able to play golf by yourself but you sure as hell couldn’t play football!
Recently, I posted about the bass fishing tournament which is always a great event and if you can’t be there, can’t compete watch it on the tele instead! The thing about the bass fishing tournament is that at the end of that weekend there is a pot of gold and a bass fish. Not many people can get that sort of deal out of a weekend.
So besides the $$$$ of hoping to catch the winning bass what else has made bassin’ so popular. My bet is that the sport has become more popular because there a lot of bass out there and there is always a challenge to catch the most and the biggest. More fish means more happy fishermen and women, great photos, good trophys and dinner on the grill!

Did you know that you can participate in a bass fishing tournament, do what you love doing, meet new friends and be in the running to get a million bucks. That sure beats coming home with fish and chips anyway day of the week in my book. If you want to know more… have a look at this interview… just close your eyes and think of that cool million coming your way when you win the bass fishing tournament. Bet you could buy some new lures with that!
