Susquehanna Bass Association
The Susquehanna Bass Association is a bass club based in Oneonta, NY. We have approximately 70 members from across the central New York region. The club was formed in 1987, and fishes regular bass tournaments every week or two from June through the end of October. We fish in two-person teams, usually with a five-fish limit.
For information, call Vic: (607) 432-5262 or email bassguide@outlook.com.
Note that the club is presently full and we are not accepting new members. If you would like to join, please check back occasionally to see if openings become available.
