Lunker Hunters Penn • Jersey Bass Club
Lunker Hunters is a bass club looking for members who like to bass fish as much as we do! We are not like most clubs, we have no obligations, and anyone is able to fish with us. We just want to have fun. Our target is to have a lifelong connection with our members. We are strictly a catch and release club, and all fish must be caught on artificial lures. All fish are property of the club, and must be released. Our club is based on a point system. Every bass at a 12" minimum is legal for points. 12" is 1 point, every 1/4" after is a 1/4 point. We do a participation point for participating in a tournament. 3 Participation points for helping at an Open Buddy, either registration check ins, livewell checks, weigh in, or help taking pics for the website. We do a lunker point for whoever catches the longest bass. A participation point for helping with the Union Lake parking lot clean up after a tourney. Last but not least you receive a participation point for attending an SJBCA meeting.
We have 3 tournaments that are double fish points. They are the Bass Bowl, the Fall Classic, and the Gobbler Classic. we have two tourneys including Pickerel. The Pickerel/Bass Bowl, and the Bass/Pickerel Bowl added in 2012, the pickerel need to be 15". The Bass/Muskie Bowl has been added for 2016, Muskie need to be 40". The Toilet Bowl was added in 2013, which Has an array of fish counting for that day. New for 2016, we have agreed to let a club tourney coincide with an open Buddy tourney. This is an incentive to get people to help out at an Open. All tourneys will have a combined limit of 10 fish. the infamous "Bass Wars" has been added in 2016. This is a year long bragging rights tourney! New for 2019 will Open to the public! This is all based on the honor system of, Catch Measure Photo Release (Also know as CPR).

Formation of The Lunker Hunters!
"All Started With A Rod And A Dream"
Lunker Hunters was formed unofficially a long time ago, with my close fishing buddies. You guys know who. A Great group of guys who love to bass fish with artificial lures! We have several members. We have boaters, yakkers, and Bank Fishers in the club. Our goal is to have fun, hang out, learn new lakes, and introduce new fishing holes to members. The club is designed to be involved as much or as little as you want. Obviously the more involved you are the more of a chance to win. We are "the other guys!" a gentlemens club as we've been called with No obligations.
We are always looking for new members!
