🚤 Boat Captain Needed! 🎣

The Crandall High School Bass Fishing Team is looking for a boat captain for the 2026–2027 season!

If you love fishing and enjoy helping the next generation of anglers grow, this is a great opportunity to make a difference. Boat captains provide a safe boat, help transport anglers to tournaments, and mentor students throughout the season.

No coaching experience is required—just a passion for fishing and supporting our team!

If you’re interested or would like more information, please send us a message or email us at [email protected].

Please help us spread the word by sharing this post. Thank you for supporting our anglers! 🎣💙

📢 2026–2027 THSBA RULES ARE NOW AVAILABLE

The official 2026–2027 THSBA Rules have been posted on the THSBA website!

Very few changes were made from last season, but it is important that all anglers and boat captains read and understand the rules before the season begins.

When setting up your season profile and signing the Release of Liability, each angler and boat captain agrees that they have read, understand, and will follow the THSBA Rules.

🟨 WHAT CHANGED?
Anything highlighted in the Rules PDF identifies a change or update from last season that you should review.

🎣 KEY UPDATES FOR 2026–2027

1️⃣ Tournament Entry Fee: $85
Tournament entry fees are now $85, a $10 increase per angler. Anglers will see that additional funding returned through increased scholarships offered at our Championship events.

2️⃣ Regional Championship Qualification: Top 45%
The top 45% of AOY teams in each division will now advance to their Regional Championship. This is a 5% increase from last season.

There is no change to the percentage advancing from Regionals to the State Championship.

3️⃣ All 5 Regular Season Events Count Toward AOY
The previous “drop your lowest tournament” format has been removed.

For 2026–2027, Angler of the Year standings will be calculated using all 5 regular season events.

⚠️ KNOW THE RULES

These are only a few of the key updates. Every angler and boat captain is responsible for knowing and following the complete THSBA Rules.

Before you hit the water this season, read the rules, review the highlighted changes, and know them!

📋 Participation Points

📖 Know the Rules
• These are just a few of the Regular Season rules. Every angler and captain is responsible for knowing and following the complete THSBA Rules.
• By signing the Release of Liability through the THSBA App, all anglers, captains, parents, and guardians acknowledge that they have read, understand, and agree to follow all THSBA Rules and policies.

📅 Looking Ahead
The 2026-2027 THSBA Rules will be posted before registration opens on August 1. We encourage all anglers, captains, and parents to review the updated rulebook before registering and competing this season.
