Any one from ohio should fish the federation nation touraments . Its not big entry fee an just a great format for selecting the  state team. Five tournaments, points system, top 8 boaters an top 4 co anglers fish for the state . The touraments are ran great an all the people behind the scences do a great job . They  have a lot of great sponsors also . An just let me say all the anglers are a great bunch of guys. So anyone not in BASS should join asap so they dont miss out.

No thanks.

Wonder why the top 8 anglers and only top 4 co-anglers make the team? Seems a little lopsided to me......why not 6 and 6?

I did a quick look at both Ohio Federations via their respective websites.

Seems that the TBF affiliated organization had more participation.

IMHO it would be a toss up as to which organization to join.

I fished some last year and I'm fishing them this year, I'm with Catchem' Bassmasters. OBFN seems to be, for the most part, a good bunch of people.
