B.A.S.S. announced today that registration for 2024 Elite Series marshals opens online on Nov. 30 for Life and Nation members. All other B.A.S.S. members can register online beginning Dec. 7.
The fee is $99 per event. Marshals will receive, apparel, gear, a gift card and other items from AFTCO with a total value of $75, plus a 20 percent off coupon for future purchases. For those dedicated few who serve as marshals for more than three events, they will receive a $100 AFTCO gift card.
Marshals join different Elite anglers to spend two to three days on the water. They are not allowed to fish but are encouraged to take photos, send blog posts to Bassmaster.com and serve as an extra set of eyes for B.A.S.S. tournament officials and the Bassmaster LIVE crew, who frequently reach out to marshals for updates. Additionally, marshals operate the digital BassTrakk scoring system that enables fans to follow the action in real time.
Another benefit? Seeing the interplay and camaraderie among competitors on the water.
Every marshal is guaranteed to be on the water for the first two competition days. As the Elite Series field is cut throughout the weekend leading up to the final round, marshals are chosen based on how early they register for the event as well as their content contributions in the preliminary rounds.
