We have made a ramp change from Empire Park to the ramp next to Scotty's Trout Dock in Branson, MO. Empire Park is currently closed due to the issues at Powersite Dam.

The lake level is still extremely high as of this past weekend. I drove over to the Beaver Creek boat ramp and took a look. People have been launching from the road just above the boat ramp without much issue. There seems to be plenty of places to park the trucks as well. We are going to have the tournament as scheduled Sunday. I hope to see everyone out there!

As of today the Bull Shoals Lake level is 690.63; almost 30 feet above power pool. With under 2 weeks until our next tournament, I will monitor the situation and keep this page updated. I will also update the Facebook page with any current news. If we have to reschedule the event, I will post information here in the news section, on Facebook, and call everyone that fished the first tournament.
We will fish all 5 tournaments this year. If anyone has any questions, please don't hesitate to call or email me anytime.

Welcome to the Bull Shoals/Lake Taneycomo Division!!
My name is Matthew Brock and I am the Tournament Director for this division. My contact information as well as my Assistant Director's contact information is available on on the right hand portion of this page. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime with questions or concerns. Also, please like and share the facebook page for this division. https://www.facebook.com/USA-Bassin-MO-11-1849472755307147/
All tournament entries will be $65/boat (no checks accepted day of tournament). $50 will go into the pot with 70% payout. $10 will go into the big bass pot for that day's tournament. The extra $5 is to cover the lake usage fee on Bull Shoals. Once that pot reaches the $100 fee, the remainder of the money collected over the year will go into a yearly Big Bass pot. I will make a point to keep you guys updated on that pot size right here in the news section.
Please be at the boat ramp early for each tournament. It takes some time to get everyone registered, check live wells, and launch boats. The rule book states that entries are not received later than 30 minutes prior to start time. Getting to the ramp early keeps everything running smoothly. If you haven't already filled out a registration form, I encourage you to do so before the day of the tournament. While you can register with USA Bassin at the ramp, filling out the form before you arrive will speed things up tremendously.
I look forward to a great year with all of you! See you on the 23rd!
