In a conversation earlier today Jack Horning NBAA's8217;s national director he said there we's8217;re more big winners at the recent open house at Freeway Sports in Fenton Michigan. Tons of sponsor's8217;s products was given away at this once a year event which included products from Minn Kota, Humminbird, Xtools, Skeeter, Yamaha, and many others. The big winners we's8217;re Steve and Mitch Gorham from the Ionia area. Mitch and Steve won a check for $250 in the Super Big Bass drawing. Also, one lucky angler in the crowed walked away with a new graph from Humminbird.

For those of you not familiar with Freeway Sports they have a large inventory of pontoons, specialty boats, including Duck boats and of course bass boats, including several new Skeeter models including the new I-Class. And while your there checking out a new Skeeter be sure to pick up the latest issue of the National Angler or the new NBAA flier with the latest tournaments in the area.

Also, we would like to thank Chris Harris who was on hand at this special event. Chris is from Harris battery who is the distributor in the area for Minn Kota Batteries. Chris went over the maintenance of your batteries and other things that can extend the life your batteries.

's8220;We's8217;d like to thank all of the directors, sponsors and members for all they have done to make NBAA the circuit it is today,'s8221; said Jim Sprague, owner and Executive Director of NBAA 's8220;It's8217;s the members that are driving this incredible growth. They's8217;re spreading the word and letting us know what they want in a grassroots tournament trail. We's8217;ve introduced a number of new programs and incentives and a lot of these ideas come directly from the anglers. Jack and I have spent a lot of time at sport shows and open houses listening to what anglers have to say. We's8217;re looking into a number of new programs already for next year, so be sure to stay tuned.'s8221;

This grassroots approach to tournament angling has caught fire with anglers. The numbers show NBAA as the fastest growing tournament circuit in the nation. Just three years ago, NBAA had around 800 members and 27 separate divisions. Today, NBAA boasts well over 100 divisions, a director staff of nearly 200 avid anglers and a membership expected to approach 4000 tournament anglers. These numbers have also caught the eye of several national level sponsors including Skeeter, Yamaha, Solar Bats, Polaris, Minn Kota, Humminbird, Auto Value, Aqua Vu, and many more national, local, and regional sponsors.

About NBAA
National Bass Anglers Association is one of the largest and fastest growing grassroots tournament trails in the nation. All NBAA tournaments are designed to give the grassroots tournament anglers a shot at qualifying for big time tournaments by fishing locally. NBAA recognizes that not all anglers have the time to fish as much as they's8217;d like to, so a format was designed that lets anglers fish their local bodies of water to qualify for the NBAA National Championship Week held each spring. By fishing as few as 5 tournaments, local anglers can qualify to fish for one of the largest tournament payouts in team tournaments anywhere in the nation. Local tournaments offer a wide range of times and days to work around anglers busy schedules. Tournaments are offered in the weekends, during weekday evenings and even during the weekdays for 2nd and 3rd shift workers.
