About South Jersey Rod Benders
Our Mission
South Jersey Rod Benders consists of a group of friends/anglers with one common goal in mind - to improve our abilities as anglers in this sport that we mutually enjoy. Our tournaments are held in a way that fosters friendly competition among one-another, while keeping that goal of improving our angling skills in mind.
How Our Club Works
SJ Rod Benders' tournaments are held in a relaxed climate and can be viewed as a mix between competitive fishing and fun fishing. Our tournaments normally consist of 12-20 anglers (6-10 boats/teams). Instead of breaking the field into two brackets (boaters/co-anglers or adult/youth, we have decided to convert to a team/buddy format for the 2019 season and beyond. This means that each boat is a team competing against the other boats. Our club consists of anglers fishing from a range of jon boats, crawdads, and bass boats.
Yearly membership dues are $20 per person, which goes towards trophies/medals as well as equipment (weigh scales, etc). Tournament entry fee is $30 per team ($15 per angler), of which $5 per team goes toward the lunker pool, and the remaining $25 is split 60/40 for 1st and 2nd place.
Tournament schedule for the year is listed on our schedule page. We fish tournaments with a 5 fish limit per team, meaning that your team's five best bass of the day will count towards your final weigh-in. At the end of a tournament, all boats will return to the launch ramp and begin pulling out of the lake. Once all boats are trailered, we weigh each team's catch; award prizes; and discuss the day's fishing, exchanging tips, advice, and lessons learned from that day on the water.
