BAM Scholastic Series – New Pilot Program
Taking an innovative approach in enhancing high school student angling opportunities, BAM has redesigned its High School Division. Replacing the need for guardians to be boaters, and students having to find access to vessels, this format fills a void.
While it is limited to open Co-Angler Spots in BAM Pro/Am Events, it allows us to ensure each boat has a Co-Angler for the event creating a more evenly structured field in our tournaments.
BAM High School Co-Angler
Expectations on these students are the same standards set for all Co-Anglers which include: experience, ability to assist your Pro in fuel expenses, and a strong understanding of the rules and the Co Anglers Role which is to use the tournament as a learning experience.
The Angler of the Year Race for this format will also include a $25,000 Total Institutional Aid Scholarship per year for the Simpson University Bass Team.

All rules for the BAM Scholastic High-School Series can be found here under High School Fishing-Co Angler Participation: https://bamtrail.com/…/2025/02/2025-BAM-Pro_Am-Rules.pdf
This format was tested with success at the BAM Pro/Am at Lake Shasta. The next event at Lake Don Pedro on February 28-March 1 is open for registration on our website.
A BAM Scholastic Membership is required for $35.
