2010 Quantum BASS Pro Series Entry Form
A running list of entrants for each event is updated daily on the Fishing Monthly Bulletin Board Official BREAM, BASS & BARRA Lists page, so you can see if your entry has been received, and find out what place you'll start on day one.
The week of the tournament ABT will contact all competitors to confirm their attendance at the tournament and give them any last minute information before the tournament.
A briefing of course will take place 6.00pm the night before the event, where anglers will be run through all the rules and regs for the event, before being paired with their fishing partners for the tournament.
Anglers will need to register before the briefing, and can do so from 5.00pm onwards at the briefing venue.
Information sheets for the BREAM Qualifiers and Super Series events are available online and can be found on the event link on the tournament calendar page.

Two articles are available for anglers, with Jami Kanowski's feature 'A Short Guide for ABT Non-boaters' a great read for first time BASS anglers, and Gary Fook's piece from the 2006 Tournamant Angler titled 'A Tournament Fishing Introduction' and his new feature from the 2009 Tournament Angler Guide titled 'Welcome Aboard' are worthwhile reads from a BREAM anglers' perspective.
For any other information phone ABT on (07) 3387 0888.
