Maryland B.A.S.S. Nation Youth

Welcome to the Maryland B.A.S.S. Nation Youth page. Our purpose is to provide a fun and educational format for student anglers to compete in organized tournaments under the standards set forth by the Bass Anglers Sportsman Society.

The Maryland B.A.S.S. Nation provides a fair and controlled angling experience. Our goal is to provide a structured activity allowing students to access the outdoors, hone their angling skills, create camaraderie, and build on the importance of resource preservation, ecological competence, and appreciation of our precious waterway resources.

If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please contact our Youth Director, Dick Brown, at: [email protected] Click here for a tour of Bassmaster Youth Series: www.bassmaster.com/Junior/
