As many of you are already aware, Lisa and I will not be returning as the directors for the Bischoff Reservoir IN-04 Division for the 2025 season. One of our long time anglers, Mr. Jeff Litchfield has agreed to assume the director's role moving forward and this change will include the upcoming annual Bischoff Reservoir Open held each October.
While Lisa and I have truly enjoyed our time as directors for this division and open, with the expanded and growing interest in the USA Bassin Seniors type events, we find those events require more and more of our time and attention.
Should anyone have any questions concerning the Bischoff Reservoir Division IN-04, please contact Jeff from this point forward.
We would like to thank each and every one of our teams who had the confidence in us and took part in our past tournaments.
God Bless and we'll see you all on the water!

Bischoff Reservoir certainly proved it's fickleness at this year's open tournament... But it also allowed the team of Cody & Andrea Rothbauer to capture one of the giants it's known for! Congratulations to the husband/wife team on their win and Big Bass award all in one!
Thank you to all our teams who braved a very cold morning. We are already looking forward to next year!
God Bless,
Chip & Lisa Ayers

We are just a few short days away from the 2023 Bischoff Reservoir Open at Bischoff Reservoir near Batesville, IN. This tournament, while held in the calendar year 2023, will actually be considered a 2024 season event. What does that mean, you ask? It means that while this is an open tournament requiring no membership to take part, teams who wish to earn valuable points towards their 2024 season will be able to obtain their membership and retain points from the tournament!
What better way to wrap up the fishing season than spending a day on Bischoff Reservoir searching for one of it's well known giant bass!?!
Come join us for all the fun. Remember we will hold a mandatory meeting thirty minutes prior to take off so arrive early. See everyone then!
God Bless,

With the early registration deadline quickly approaching, we have received several inquiries concerning entry on the day of the event. We will be accepting entries the morning of the event prior to the mandatory pre-tournament meeting which will begin at 7:00 AM. Those entries paid the morning of the event MUST BE CASH!!!
We are anticipating to draw a large number (by Bischoff Reservoir standards) of contestants for the Bischoff Reservoir Open. With that being said, we will be in the parking lot at 5:00 AM to take same day entries and assist in parking. We encourage everyone to arrive early and secure a parking spot at this fantastic fishery!
Thank you in advance!
God Bless,
Chip & Lisa Ayers
