    Bass Fishing Guides provide the average angler with the fishing trip of a life time. The average angler may save many years to pay for a guided bass fishing trip on a famed lake or river and may only take one or two trips in his entire lifetime. The guide plays an important part in how that angler will remember his trip of a life time and it is important to do some research to find the right guide for your trip.

    What should you look for in a guide you ask? Someone that can put you on fish no matter the time of year or the weather conditions, he should be able to teach you a new technique in a matter of minutes if you are not familiar with the water that you are fishing and keep you entertained when the bite is slow. Your guide is going to need to be a virtual jack of all trades.

    It is often that we receive questions about how to start a bass club. In response to those requests we have put together the Bass Club Resource area. You will find examples of club bi-laws and rules as well as how to's on running an open bass fishing tournament or invitational tournament and how to start your own bass club.

    Bass clubs are a great way to learn more about the sport of bass fishing and also a great way to meet new people that enjoy the same outdoor activities that you do. Bass fishing is fun and exciting and will bring you memories that will last you a lifetime.

    A great way to find a bass club in your area is to visit your local tackle shop. Many times they will have flyers from the local bass clubs on their counters or know the tournament director personally. You might also check in the phone book. Often times clubs will be listed in the yellow pages. Another great resource is to check out the Bass Club Connection, where you will find bass clubs that have taken advantage of the free bass club message boards here at Ultimate Bass.

    If you have some information that you would like to see added to the bass club resource area, please feel free to email it to publish@ultimatebass.com and we will be glad to add it to the valuable resources listed here.

    Daily Moon Phase

    Brief Explanation of the Moon Phases

    The phases of the moon are caused by the relative positions of the earth, sun, and moon. The moon goes around the earth, on average, in 27 days 7 hours 43 minutes.

    The sun always illuminates the half of the moon facing the sun (except during lunar eclipses, when the moon passes thru the earth's shadow). When the sun and moon are on opposite sides of the earth, the moon appears "full" to us, a bright, round disk. When the moon is between the earth and the sun, it appears dark, a "new" moon. In between, the moon's illuminated surface appears to grow (wax) to full, then decreases (wanes) to the next new moon.

    The edge of the shadow (the terminator) is always curved, being an oblique view of a circle, giving the moon its familiar crescent shape. Because the "horns" of the moon at the ends of the crescent are always facing away from the setting or rising sun, they always point upward in the sky. It is fun to watch for paintings and pictures which show an "impossible moon" with the horns pointed downwards.
