Established in 2015 for tournament anglers by tournament anglers. Triangle ProAm Bass Anglers
(or Triangle Bass) was founded by a several bass anglers looking to create a bass fishing
tournament club that provided a blend of competition and camaraderie for anglers
in the Raleigh, Durham and Wake Forest area.
Triangle Bass runs Conservation Tournaments.
Unlike a conventional tournament format where an angler keeps his best 5 fish, we have moved to a
Conservation Tournament format made popular by the new professional bass tournament trail seen
on TV.
Instead of keeping fish and weighing in at the end of the day, anglers will weigh their fish and release
them back to the water. Anglers have access to a web site that allow them to enter their catch weight and
view a real-time leaderboard to see how they stack up against other anglers.
To support fish health and conservation, anglers will be responsible for proper fish handling and release practices.
Penalties, which result in lost fishing time, will be assessed if an angler violates one of these practices.
In this format, boaters will still compete against other boaters and non-boaters will compete against other
non-boaters. These are not team tournaments. The boater's catch is separate from the non-boater's catch and there will be a
winner from both the boater and non-boater side. The winner of each tournament will receive
a trophy as well as monetary payback .
Angler of the Year points will be accumulated for both boaters and non-boaters and the top 3
boaters and top 3 non-boaters will fish a money tournament the following season. In addition, Angler of the Year for
both boaters and non-boaters will receive a trophy and a cash prize.
Our bass club is entering its 5th year and we are currently looking for new members, both
boaters and non-boaters, in the Raleigh, Durham and Wake Forest areas. If you are interested in

See you on the water!
