We had posted this before and it drifted off page.
The National Team Championship will Be October 27-29 in Mountain Home, AR.
Off Limits:
Sunday October 20th is the last day any participant can be on local waters within a 75 mile radius of Mountain Home.
Arrival will be Saturday, October 26th with dinner following that evening. Housing and dinner will be provided by Bass Cat. The final day, on Tuesday the 29th, may or may not have a dinner and awards segment.
Practice day will be Sunday, and competition will be Monday and Tuesday (27-29). We will release details that evening at the Welcome dinner. Because the locations are secret no information that is available, nothing beyond be in Mountain Home and be ready to travel. No other arrangements will be made until the first week of October.
Lodging will be Provided by Bass Cat Boats and the locations will be established once time draws closer. The email will go out within two weeks with destination for the first nights dinner, where all the details will be distributed.
They do not have the destinations established and the schedule is kept secret. Anyone you know who previously participated can explain the process and how we operate. There will be multiple weigh ins both days, and at different locations. They have held up to three (3) events and weigh-ins in one days time. Breaking fishing times down to appx. three (3) hours per segment. We can host up to twelve (12) teams under this format. There will be some teams flying into area airports around Mountain Home and we make those arrangements and manage transportation.
It is going to be a gorgeous fall in North Arkansas with the wettest year on record. The trees should be in full color when the event is held.
If you have a team qualified, please share these details. There are still opportunities to win a berth!
The National Team Championship Trip will be the Comedero Trip on February 28th to March 3rd. That is an excellent fishing trip and the lake has been re-opened within the last five years, after it was rebuilt and restocked.
Mexico:
Join Rick and some of the staff on a trip to Mexico. The crew at the NTC will be competing for a trip to Lake Comedero, Mexico this go round. Ron Speed, Jr. gives Bass Cat Owners a significant discount booking this trip and its a wonderful experience. We have done four NTC trips with Ron Speed and everyone had a blast!
The trips to Mexico have opportunities for guests. We have booked two trips to Mexico in 2020. One is the NTC Trip and we have 12 openings for Bass Cat Owners and Friends to join us on that trip with Ron Speed Adventures. Comedero was recently totally refurbished and opened a couple years ago for fishing. The fish and large and strong and fishing is an awesome experience.
Picachos – January 24th through January 28th
Comedero – February 28th through March 3rd
The second trip is the Picachos Trip and this is just for fun. Join us for this one and it is an absolutely wonderful couples trip where we spend the final night at El Cid Resort, on the beach in Mazatlan.
The food and atmosphere on this trip is very hard to match.
Set these up on your Christmas list and let’s all go to Mexico!
This is going to be fun.

Thanks BCB

BCB,
Where do I send the team info to?
normally I have sent to Shanna but she knows nothings about the tournament.
Looking forward to the trip.
Best of luck to all the qualified teams!!
Especially the Peterman team! Bring that win back to Bama!!
Is there host lodging for qualifiers? If not, any recommendations for places to stay?
Lodging will be handled by BCB. You just have to show up. They have not established details on where the event will begin and end. They are carefully watching the water levels on area reservoirs and are trying to come up with something different than in years past. Lodging may begin in Mountain Home and each night the housing location may change.
