Goldsand Bassmasters
Welcome to Goldsand Bassmasters
Based in Louisburg, NC, we are a FLW federated fishing club. We fish an average of ten tournaments a year, not including the six man team we send to the regionals every year. We generally start each season at Hyco Lake to take advantage of the warm water discharge, but like to change things up from time to time! Among those tournaments each year, we generally (there is that word again!) take two trips 'down East' to the Roanoke and Chowan rivers. If you've never been, you don't know what you're missing!
The club is actively seeking new members, either boater or non-boater. Please use the contact form to get more information on how to join our club for the best, friendliest competition in the South. Our membership comes from a wide area, from right here in Louisburg, to as close as Youngsville, NC and stretching out from there. Experience level ranges from rookie to old timer, with no one individual dominating the field. You will still have your work cut out for you, though!
The $30 'pot' in each tournament is not necessary to fish, one could fish simply for points, bragging rights, or for the learning experience. A big fish pot is awarded as well. Speaking of tournaments, the club as a whole decides where we fish, how long we fish, and when. Everyone has an equal say in the matter. No seniority or 'old guard' here.
Each month, we hold a meeting in Franklinton. Wait! Don't start grumbling yet! Joe holds these meetings at his house. In his house is his kitchen, and well, I think you see where this is going. The man can cook. It's worth the entry price just for the food. We talk about fishing too, between bites.
Please have a look around the site, if you have any questions, feel free to ask via the contact form, or give us a call, we're always ready to talk fishin'
