Texas BASS Nation now has a Kayak Division. Duc Tran has taken the lead as Kayak Division Director with Tracy Dugan filling the role of Treasurer. Welcome to the Team!!
The primary goal of the Kayak Division this year is to host a State Championship so that Kayak fishermen from Texas can move on to the next level of competition in the BASS organization.
With that goal in mind Texas BASS Nation Kayak Division is hosting a State Championship October 7, 2023 on Possum Kingdom Reservoir open to Kayakers from around the state. The Championship Captain’s meeting & dinner will be held at Rock Creek Camp Park on Friday, October 6 starting at 3 pm. Registration for the tournament can be done online from the State Championship page or on site Friday evening at 3 pm.
Qualifiers from the TBN State Championship will advance to the 2024 Bassmaster Kayak National Championship to be held on Lake Tenkiller in Tahlequah, Oklahoma on March 20-21, 2024.
