Who we are and what we do
Mohawk Valley Basscasters or MVBC is a member of the Bass Anglers Sportsman Society and a member of the B.A.S.S Federation Nation. Founded in 1978, we are currently 25 members strong and are very active in the State of Connecticut B.A.S.S. Federation. We meet monthly at the Bristol Polish Club in Bristol, Connecticut.
CONGRATULATIONS go out to Kevin Noel, our 2009 Angler of the Year.
Kevin was successful in wining this title by consistently finishing near the top of the standings in last year’s eight club tournaments. This year Kevin will work hard to ward off other hard charging members looking to gain the title, and the trophy, for this seasons, Angler of the Year. Kevin will also represent MVBC at this year’s Brian Kerchal Tournament of Champions to be held July 31, 2010.
MVBC is a diverse and enthusiastic bass fishing club with a membership that is active both within the sport of bass fishing and in the community. As a club we fish eight regular club tournaments. The member with the most consistent finishes equaling the least amount of points through these tournaments is deemed that years, Angler of the Year. In addition to bass fishing many club members volunteer their time to the different committees in the Connecticut Bass Federation (CBF). As a club, we host the pairings meeting, that takes place just prior to the State Team Tournament in the Fall. We also actively participate in a summer food drive and holiday season Toys for Tots drive run by the US Marine Corps Reserves. Members also assist the New England Paralyzed Veterans Association (NEPVA) with their bass fishing tournaments designed to get paralyzed veterans out on the water and catching fish!
