The Denver Bassmaster's promote and support opportunities for all boys and girls , between the ages of 8 - 14 ,who have an interest in learning how to fish. The goal of the program is to teach these young anglers skills and techniques while on the water along with lessons in sportsmanship, conservation, and competition.
DBM sponsored events are hosted on public & private lakes and ponds throughout the Denver Metro area. Most involve fishing from shore but there will be some waters we can launch boats and the adult members of the club will bring their boats to fish from.
An information meeting was held on March 23rd at Bass Pro Shops in Denver. The attached presentation was given. The meeting was optional and was not required to sign up for the club.
