Bass Pro Shops, the world’s leading retailer in fishing and outdoor gear, has partnered with Drew Gregory’s Company, Deep Creek Ventures, to become the headline sponsor and host of “The 2010 River Bassin Tournament Trail Presented by Bass Pro Shops.”

The unique catch-photo-release, man powered watercraft, tournament trail will be comprised of 5 tournaments in 5 different Bass Pro Shops locations. Anglers will fish nearby rivers of their choice and take photos of their catch on a ruler device, then bring back their cameras to the Bass Pro Shops location where a slide show “results show” will take place where prizes are awarded in 3 divisions – Avid Angler, Casual Angler and Young River Bassers.

The avid angler division will feature a River Basser of the Year grand prize that is already valued at $15,000 and is expected to continue to grow. Key sponsors getting involved include Jackson Kayak, True North Trailers and Amazon Expeditions. *Prizes include Drew Gregory’s new signature kayak by Jackson Kayak, a fully rigged Outdoor Support Vehicle from True North and an all expenses paid trip to the Amazon River to fish for peacock bass, and much more.

Keep an eye on the Calendar and on this section to find out when your state will be having a rodeo!
