Alabama Bass Trail announces 2015 tournament schedule
Registration opens August 1, 2014
DECATUR, Ala. – After a successful inaugural year, the Alabama Bass Trail (ABT) is pleased to announce the 2015 tournament schedule. The 10-lake, team-style tournament series will be held on ten of the lakes of the Alabama Bass Trail beginning February 14, 2015, with the championship tournament to be held on the 11th lake October 9-10, 2015.
“The Alabama Bass Trail tournament format has been wildly successful, pulling anglers from six states and creating an economic impact of over $1 million in the areas around the Trail’s lakes,” said ABT Program Director Kay Donaldson. “I am so proud of what our state has accomplished while promoting the sport of bass fishing. We have showcased these lakes to the world and provided a needed boost to the local economies.”
The Alabama Bass Trail Tournament Series gets underway February 14, 2015. The tournament trail contains two divisions: North and South. Each division is made up of five tournaments on five different lakes. The maximum number of boats for each tournament is 225, an increase from the 200-boat limit in the 2014 tournament series. In 2015, no single entries will be allowed. Teams must fish in all five tournaments in their respective division.
