You’re On One Basser’s Thanks List

Wanna Be Famous? Now’s Your Chance
Okay, I’m heading out next week for the annual huntin’ excursion, so looking for some folks who want to get rich and famous by posting on this-here blog thingy. Okay, not rich (no pay), but a little famous since Bassin’ Parade is the widest-read blog in all of bassin’. Maybe you want to get something [...]

Lisenby Leads with Two to Go

We’re Looking for Tackle Nuts
Are you obsessed with crankbaits, spinnerbaits, jigs, jerkbaits, rods, reels, line, etc. – meaning any ONE of these things? Do you just NEED TO KNOW about the latest and greatest, evaluate whatever it is, and issue an opinion? If so, we need you – maybe. We’re looking for folks who are rabid about
Shimano’s Swimmin’ Sensation
At Bass Parade we tend to talk a lot ABOUT fishing, but for some reason we haven’t actually ‘talked fishing’ that much. Which is a shame, because in addition to being ruggedly handsome [Jason] and smelling like daffodils [Jay], we actually DO know how to fish. Well… Jay can’t catch a bass to save his [...]

Bass Parade Avatars
When we launched BassParade last week we made sure to invite our readers to participate by posting comments. On a personal level, I’m satisfied with it because we’ve yet to receive any comments that begin, “Exactly how much crack have you been smoking?” or “You are wrong on so many levels it is hard to [...]
