| At
one time
in its early years, SRIBA was a member of the CT B.A.S.S. Federation.
We eventually gave this up due to the problem of getting a club
representative to the monthly meetings, which were held about
90 minutes from the Westerly area, which is our home base. Upon
dropping out of the CT Federation, we joined the RI B.A.S.S.
Federation. Once again, we were faced with the problem of getting
a representative to the monthly meetings. WIth this issue and
the fact that we never sent any members to the RI State Fish-Offs,
we decided that it was in the best interest of SRIBA to become
an independent club, with no official affiliations or ties to
larger organizations.
For
the 2004 season
SRIBA has a membership of 13. Our members include anglers from
all walks of life. Our regular job lineup includes pharmaceutical
chemists, Firefighters, Mechanics, Computer Geeks and many other
job descriptions.
As
mentioned above, we hail from every nook and
cranny of RI and even southeastern CT. We range in age
from 20 something to "somewhere
in our 40s".
Our
goal as a club is to enjoy the sport of bass fishing
and to educate each other in angling methods and conservation.
Our
Officers for the 2008 season are:
- Curt
Snow - President and Tournament Director
- Matt Mitson (AKA Mitz) - Secretary
- Bob
Willis - Treasurer
- Isaac
Claros - Vice President
Our
Members
for the 2005 season are (in no particular order):
- Dave Royer
- Andrew gardiner
- Rich Williams
- Steve Burke
