Welcome to the Crown City Bassmasters Team Trail online!

The TEAM BASS trail was developed to give our experienced anglers a chance to fish at a slightly more intense level and for a little more prize money. If you have a partner that you always like to fish with and you are looking for a challenge then the Team Bass trail is for you.
