The Bass club was started in the early 70,s when Tournament Bass Fishing was not
considered a sport by many like it is today. The club started with a group of
friends with a passion for Bass fishing and a competitive spirit. Fishing
against each other to see who was the best on that day just for fun. That group
is now 42 members strong ranging in ages from 14 to their 60,s. And its not just
a mans sport we have wives, daughters, nieces participating too. This sport is
for everyone. Today's Bass fishing is well known thanks to televised shows and
big money sponsors, that provide opportunities for High School and College teams
to fish for scholarship moneys. The L.C.B.C. does have some successful fisherman
outside of the club itself like a member who qualified all the way to the Redman
All-American Bass tournament, that's big. we also have members who fish the
Bassmasters Opens, and Ohio Division Bassmasters Weekend series, and the F.L.W.
some with great success at the Professional level. But most of our members are
just regular sportsman who enjoy competitive bass fishing. Our longest
participating member Greg Freeman V.P. has been in the club since 1979. Greg
states he is very proud of how far the club has come from just a group of
fisherman to a group of fisherman teaching others about fishing. The L.C.B.C.
annually volunteers at the Wheeling Sportsman event held at Lake Vesuvius, and
the Kids Fishing Derby held there too. We also have members trained and
certified by the state of Ohio to Teach the Passport to Fishing class to kids (
scouts and others).All our members are dedicated to this sport and passing it
on. Our club is supported by local Businesses thru sponsorships we thank each
and everyone. I have only been in the club for 5 years and President for 4 , I
joined a great group of sportsman I now consider friends. This is a family
sport so take your family fishing. Don't let your kid be the one to get away.
