2010 DATES & UP DATES
Sunday Nov. 22 2009 Temiskaming Smallmouth Bass series held it,s annual board of Directors meeting,with
14 anglers attended the meeting and discusing the upcoming season.
These meetings are open to all anglers,and every angler attending, does become a member of the board,
and has the right to bring forth a proposal that they feel will benifit the searies and have that proposal
voted on.
In the 2010 season there will be a few changes that anglers need to pay attention too, so please let your
fellow anglers know what these are.
#1 Anglers will now need to fish 4 events to qualify for the Classic and have a partner
that has done the same.
#2 The Classic will be held on Casseles Lake in Temagami, and the time for the Classic event will be
8am to 4pm on Saturday, 8am to 3pm Sunday,for safty reasons. All Qualifiers stay the same.
#3 Blast off will be the same (BUT) anglers are asked to be on the water at least 15 miuets earlier in order
to give the team running the event, time to get in place.
Your 2010 dates are still 1 day events just spread out different.

CLASSIC will be on Cassels Lake including Rabbit Lake Sept.25 & 26th.
The 2009 season has now gone into the history books, and what a year it was. We had a lot of new anglers come
out to fish the Series this year, and they said it was alot of fun and that they would be back next year.
There is no question that the low entree fee is a big draw, but what I kept hearing was how great everyone
was. One of the new teams that only fished a couple of tournaments, said they had no idea that teams who had
been fishing for years would give them tips on what to use and how to use them, plus some spots.
This Series is desined so that new anglers can learn how to fish in a tournament setting and have fun doing it.
It is also desined so that new anglers can go to a year end Classic, and go home with prizes and a memory that
will last a life time. These anglers are the future of the Temiskaming Smallmouth Bass Series, and some day,
they will be the ones giving other new anglers tips, just like they got when they started, and thats what it,s
all about.
