Gold Fish,

The BASS Nation tournaments are not 'open' tournaments. You need to be a current member in good standing of a CA BASS Nation sanctioned Club to participate. This is probably why you haven't heard to much 'publicly' about the BASS Nation State Team Qualifier Tournaments. Most of the information is released via the BASS Nation Clubs straight to their respective memberships.
