Tournament Rules: The Camden Bassmasters have adopted the New York State Bass Chapter Federation Tournament Rules, click here, with the following exceptions:

1. Any boat equipped with an outboard engine of 50 hp or less will receive a 20 minute head start. This provides the smaller boat the chance to reach a distant fishing spot at about the same time the guys with the big boats do.

2.  non-boater/boater pairings is left up to the members. While it is encouraged for members to to occasionally switch up partners from time to time we understand anglers new to the sport prefer to fish with members they know.

3. There is no set "off-limits" period. As many of our members have odd schedules and work Saturdays, making it impossible to pre-fish, we have no set off-limit period.

4. There is no minimum horsepower rule. Your boat must be equipped with all the safety equipment and features set forth by US Coast Guard regulations and a working live-well large enough to keep two limits of fish alive for the duration of the tournament.

5. The non-boater shared gas & oil expense for the 2008 season has been set at $30.00 per tournament.

6. Un-paired boaters will be able to compete fishing from their own boats, and will not be forced to fish together in one boat, leaving the other angler's at the ramp.

7. The boater and non-boater will share control of the boat, each having say where they will fish in their 4 hour period, which includes travel time. This means the non-boater can direct the boater to go to their spot and they may operate the trolling motor, it does not give the non-boater permission to operate the gas motor.
