BAA Pre-Season Members Meeting

Attention 2023 members – an invite for a pre-season meeting was sent via email to all current members, last week. If you did not receive it, email us and we’ll share it again. This meeting is not mandatory, but is highly-recommended, and is scheduled for June 6 (evening).

2023 Team Of The Year

Final 2023 Team Of The Year standings can be found below. As usual, we take the best 5 weights of every team (regular season only)…

2023 Classic Location

The 2023 Classic will be held at Big Rideau Lake on September 9 & 10, 2023. As a reminder, BAA believes everyone should enjoy the fun, so we do not exclude any teams – there is no “cut line” or “qualifying” for this year-end event.

2023 Season Information

The 2023 schedule has been slightly changed to avoid fishing on Canada Day and the typical boat ramp mayhem that comes with it. All lakes and venues are “To be confirmed” (TBC) until we have received confirmation and permits for all events. The 2023 Classic location will not be announced until closer to the start of the 2023 season.

If you are interested in joining BAA for 2023, we are currently accepting requests for the wait-list. Fill out the form here and we will reply as soon as possible confirming your request. Note that nobody will be required to pay (including returning members) until mid-February 2023 at the very earliest.

We intend to hold a members meeting in Spring 2023, probably around May or early June, to allow all 2023 members new and old, to join us for a rules discussion, meet-and-greet the execs, and a social event of sorts. Stay tuned to your email for the details on this.

NEW!! A Progressive Mystery Weight Jackpot! See details below the payouts here. We’re excited to launch this fun initiative for 2023!

2022 Classic Results – Newboro Lake

The 2022 BAA Classic on Newboro Lake takes place September 10 & 11, 2022. Results can be found below.

As a reminder, the Classic is a combined 2-day event paying to 5th place – see here for payouts. Big Fish 1 and 2 are paid for each day separately.

Congrats to the Day 1 and Day 2 “Big Fish” winners, and congrats to the overall 2-day weight winners!
