Thank you for your support of our 2024 trail series. This year's state championship will be held on Lake Guntersville! Your being in this event is due to your accomplishment in either one of our events or your qualification through the strong grassroots series we have here in Tennessee. Either one is a great indicator of your abilities.
In order to fish the 2024 Tennessee B.A.S.S. Nation State Championship each angler will need to be a member of both BASS & Bass Nation. That cost is $15 & $30. You register for BASS ($15) yourself on their site.
Register and pay the $15 to join B.A.S.S. here...

Once you obtain your membership number & go to www.tnbnks.com to pay the B.A.S.S. Nation dues.
The dates are October 5th & 6th 2024.
The launch boundaries will be any public ramp or access from Nickajack Dam to Guntersville Dam.
Once you launch you're allowed to paddle/pedal/motor as far as you wish.
The top 10% qualify for the 2025 Bassmaster Kayak Series Championship held in conjunction with the BASSMASTER CLASSIC.
