Bass federation club?

[Bosshog]

Hey im pretty new to this site.

My question is what do yall think about BASS clubs? Good, bad, okay? Im considering joining one. I have never fished competitively or anything.

Honestly, I love fishing and have loved it since I was a little kid. It is one of the things that I still enjoy doing since I have grown up. I have gone through a lot of phases like paintballing, rugby, etc.. I use to love to play basketball, football, and baseball(baseball being my favorite) but it seems like I go in and out of hobbies and fishing is something thats always stuck with me. I want to really focus more on it now. Dont get me wrong I still love playing catch, but fishing is something where you dont need a partner to rely on. Its just up to you really and thats what I enjoy about it.

Anyway, I can honestly say I am not a great fisherman lol. I use to fish for everything and was never an expert at catching anything. Now I have deciced that I enjoy Bass fishing the best and would like to become a lot better.

What are some tips you guys can give me to become better at this sport and maybe sometime I can work my way up to competing?
