It is with extreme excitement that we announce the next iteration of the Costa Bass-N-Fly Challenge.

For the first time in the history of Costa Bass-N-Fly, we are launching out of the renowned Sugar Barge RV Resort & Marina; located on Bethel Island, CA in the heart of the Sacramento San- Joaquin River Delta. We've arranged for another action packed two day extravaganza on Thursday and Friday, May 18th and 19th, 2017.

With the 2017 Costa Bass-N-Fly tournament running out of Bethel Island, you can spit from the levee and hit lunker black bass swimming in the fabled Franks Tract. Or, feel free to motor to Disappointment, Venice, Holland, Big Break or Little Franks, you name it, you're there in a matter of minutes!

Being on Thursday and Friday, we hope the timing will cut down on recreational boat traffic and avoid coinciding with other tournaments.

Well, what's next?

Register at the Sacramento International Sportsman's Expo. You'll find Captain Maury Hatch and registration forms in the Costa booth January 19-21, 2017.

Alternatively, you can go to the Costa Bass-N-Fly website, download the registration form and choose from a couple of registration options.

Get revved up, check out the 2016 Costa Bass-N-Fly video.
