Wisconsin Bass Team Trail

Presented by:

Welcome back Arbor Vitae Marine as the 2023 presenting sponsor!

We are looking forward to another great year of the Wisconsin Bass Team Trail for 2023 with many sponsors already back on board for next year! Arbor Vitae Marine will again be our presenting sponsor for 2023.

Current teams will be able to register starting January 30, 2023. Early registration will be open until February 28, 2023. At that time registration will open to any teams who would like to fish. The order in which entries are received will determine the order teams will draw at boat draw. We will do this the same as in past years. Current teams who are present at boat draw will draw from the top numbers of the field. New teams who are present at boat draw will draw from the next numbers. Current teams not present will be drawn next, then new teams who are not present. This rewards those teams who have a representative at boat draw with higher take off numbers. If neither team member can make boat draw, they can send a representative as long as that representative is not drawing for another team.

One change we made this year has to do with entry fees. Each qualifier is now $170 per event, which includes big bass. In order to hold a spot, teams must pay $85 pre event. This will hold a spot for boat draw, but ALL ENTRY FEES MUST BE POST MARKED AND PAID BY SATURDAY, APRIL 1, 2023.

Membership fees will remain the same this year at $30 per person. If a team has a sub for a tournament, that sub will also have to pay the $30 membership fee before fishing the event.

There will be NO refunds after February 28, 2023.

Pending permits, we have a tentative schedule for next year:
