BASSREAPERS

In 1981, the Bass Reapers began hosting an Annual Open Tournament and raffle to raise funds to support our conservation efforts at Lake Berryessa. This tournament is very popular and has had as many as 250 participants with a total payout of about $10,000 (be sure you check out the Open Tournament page). As a result of those efforts over the years, we have released over 30,000 Florida-strain largemouth bass into Lake Berryessa. This year we have also increased much needed bass "structure" by sinking Christmas trees in the lake. In 2009, we installed a fish cleaning station at the Capell Cove free launch ramp.
