Note: visitors are welcome. If you want to join the club, one of the requirements is to fish a tournament. For new members and guests, we do not have a formal launch i.e., you can launch where and wherever you want (on the assigned lake). However, you can not make your first cast until the official starting time.

You must return to the assigned ramp prior to the ending time. So, plan your travel time accordingly.


Canyon Bass Club

The Canyon Bass Club of San Marcos was formed in 1968 and averages around 35 members. Our Club membership ranges in age from 17 to 80 + plus; and we welcome both men and woman as well as children who can compete in our Junior Division. We are always looking for new members and we are a very non-boater friendly club. We fish twelve (12) tournaments a year with the possibility of two of those being a two (2) day events.  We hold our tournaments on the second Saturday or weekend of each month. Our meetings are held on the last Tuesday of the month.


Our club prides itself in being a very friendly club and we are very open about our fishing techniques. A big part of our meetings are taken up with programs designed to educate our members. During our Monthly Tournament Awards presentations, it is customary for the previous tournaments top finishers to reveal their secrets as to how they caught their fish. We all try to benefit from learning from one another’s fishing techniques. We would love to have you come join our Club.
