FOX VALLEY BASS CLUB
The Best Bass Fishing Club in N.E. Wisconsin!
"We Fish for Bass! We Fish for FUN!"
The Fox Valley Bass Club
(FVBC) of Kimberly, WI has been around so long none of
the current members are absolutely sure when it was
first formed, but its safe to say that this group has
been casting the waters of Northeast Wisconsin for the
better part of three decades. Most of the names and
faces have changed over the years, but the two dozen or
so avid anglers that comprise the club’s membership
still come together for the same purpose they always
have; to fish for bass and fish for fun.
Club members
gather for
monthly meetings
to talk fishing and club business, with two summer
meetings being held as family picnic get-togethers. They
also compete during the Wisconsin “all-too-short” bass
fishing season in eight “buddy-draw” qualifying
tournaments in hopes of making the cut for the season’s
end Tournament of Champions (TOC).
While the competition and
camaraderie of fishing is key to this group, their community
spirit runs strong. For the past several years, the FVBC has
teamed with the 1000 Islands Nature Center of Kaukauna,
Wisconsin to conduct a 2-evening “Fishing For Kids” event.
The first evening youngsters are educated in such topics as
Fish Identification, Lures, Fishing Knots, Fish Cleaning,
Angling/Boat Safety, and Casting. The second evening is the
one the kids look forward to the most, because they are
treated to a couple hours of fishing along the banks of the
Fox River then its back to the Nature Center for the handing
out of door prizes and goodies. We’ve hosted as many as 100
youngsters during these events, but through donations from a
great bunch of community and national sponsors, no one goes
home empty handed. This club is all about
keeping fishing fun, with very affordable yearly dues and
Club Tournament entry fees. We don’t compete for the cash,
but rather for the spirit of fun competition and the chance
to learn a few tricks from one another. If you’re a bass
angler living in or around the Fox Valley of Northeast
