INTRODUCTION The B.A.I.T. program began in 1986 with the objective of

gathering information on bass populations and their utilization by fishermen in Alabama reservoirs through the combined efforts of bass club members and state fisheries biologists. Reservoir creel surveys are expensive to conduct and cannot be undertaken on a statewide basis. The B.A.I.T. program was initiated to compile catch data on bass populations that were already being collected by the clubs .

. ' The 1986 effort was a great success. Over 280 tournament reports were submitted by participating clubs and 260 of those reports were used to develop the tournament report database. Twenty-eight reservoirs were fished 52,161 hours by 5,212 fishermen. Forty-two clubs participated in collecting the data.

METHODS During 1987, an effort was made to maintain the support of

the 1986 clubs and to enlist the support of clubs not in the program. Club officers or tournament directors were sent the 1986 Annual Report and postcards to be completed following each 1987 tournament. Each club was assigned a number to insure confidentiality. As the 1987 tournament cards were received by the Fisheries Section, they were checked for accuracy and entered into a computer database. Compilation and analysis of the data wa~ performed following receipt of the December tournament data.

Statewide information was sorted by reservoir, by month, and by participating club. A minimum of five tournaments for an individual reservoir was considered necessary for minimum confidence in each reservoir dataset. To rank reservoirs, five "fishing quality" indicators were used: percent successful fishermen (percent with at least one fish at weigh-in); bass average weight; number of bass per fisherman-day; pounds of bass per fisherman-day; and hours required to catch a bass of five pounds or larger . Since the length of a fishing day varies between tournaments, a fisherman-day was defined as 10 hours of fishing.

Reservoirs for which five or more tournament reports were received were ranked for each of the quality indicators. Values were assigned to each rank and an "overall" rank was determined for each reservoir by summing the values for the five quality indicators. This ranking system is intended to be a quick reference for tournament site selection. It is not a "best" and "worst" list and should not be interpreted that way.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Three hundred and eighty-two (382) reports for 1987

tournaments were submitted by bass clubs. The club representatives did an excellent job filling out the cards and no reports were rejected due to incomplete or erroneous information. Substantially more information was received in 1987

than in 1986, mainly because more clubs participated (59 vs 42). Many fishermen during 1987 told us that it was the best year they had seen in several years and the B.A.I.T. results supported those statements. By any measure, fishing was better in 1987 than in 1986 (Table 4). More fishermen had fish at the weigh-ins, more fish were caught per day, and the fish were larger. It also took far less time to catch a big bass.

The reports covered 39 bodies of water whi ch were fished 87,856 hours by 8,894 fishermen . They caught 20,058 bass (12 inches and larger) that weighed 32,644 pounds (Table 1). Three hundred and sixty-five (365) bass five pounds and larger were reported. The largest bass weighed 10.68 pounds and was caught in Eufaula during a Team-Hydrosports Tournament. The second largest bass (10.56 pounds ) was caught in Harris by a member of the Alabama Hawg Hunters. Surprisingly, both of these fish were caught on the same day, March 14th.

Thirty-four clubs (59%) submitted five or more tournament reports (22% of the clubs provided 41% of the data). Fourteen clubs submitted 10 or more reports (Table 3). Two clubs, the Guntersville Bass Masters and the Birmingham Bass Busters submitted 16 tournament reports each during 1987. Lack of full reporting by clubs remains a major limiting factor in this program. All clubs should understand that reports are needed for each of their tournaments. A list of 1987 B.A.I.T. clubs is presented in Table 5.

All clubs used a self-imposed 12-inch minimum size limit, except on West Point where a 16-inch size limit is in effect. Most clubs (69%) used daily creel limits other than the state regulation of 10 bass per fisherman. The 7-bass-per-day limit used in Bass Angler Sportsman Society (B.A.S.S) sponsored tournaments was used by 41% of the clubs. Lesser numbers of clubs used limits of 5, 6, or 8 bass per fisherman. Overall, the clubs were more conservative in their tournament regulations than the limits allowed by Game and Fish Division regulations.

To provide additional information for the clubs, the 1987 data was compiled by month (Table 6). As one might expect, fishing was best in the spring and fall, although fairly productive in all seasons. During the summer, several clubs fished at night rather than during the day. Night tournaments composed 8% of all tournaments reported . Most were held during June, July, and August.

Fifteen clubs reported fishing two-day tournaments (7% of tournament reports) on all major river drainages. Nineteen tournaments were major open tournaments or sponsored tournaments. Twelve of these were held on Eufaula. Two each were held on Jordan and Jones Bluff, and one tournament each was held on Martin, Miller's Ferry, and Lay. Most open tournaments had over 100 entrants.

More tournament reports were received from the Mobile Delta than any other location. The Delta is not a reservoir, but was included because it is a popular bass fishing area of significant acreage. Two reservoirs had 33 tournament reports each, Eufaula and Mdller's Ferry (Table 1). Reports from these three locations represented 27% of all reports received.

Twenty-four reservoirs had five or more tournament reports of the 39 reservoirs for which reports were received. The following comments deal with these 24 reservoirs only (Table 2).

The percent of successful fishermen ranged from 42 to 88. Again this year, West Point was the lowest ranked reservoir in this category, but it is the only reservoir with a 16-inch size limit. Overall, the percent of successful fishermen was almost 5% higher in 1987 than 1986.

The average weight of bass harvested ranged from 1.25 pounds at Guntersville to 3.20 pounds at West Point (Table 1). The statewide average was 1.63 pounds. In addition to West Point, two other reservoirs, Eufaula and Harding, reported average weights greater than two pounds. These reservoirs are on the Chattahoochee River, where the natural genetic influence of Florida hass is the greatest.

Catch rates ranged from a high of 2.85 bass per man-day at Wheeler to 0.8 at West Point. The statewide average was 2.28 bass per man-day. Catch in pounds per man-day ranged from a high of 5.34 at Eufaula to 2.12 at Wilson. The statewide average was 3.72 pounds per man-day. Six reservoirs reported catches in excess of 4.0 pounds per man-day.

This year Eufaula was judged the top ranked reservoir in Alabama, accumulating a total score of 101 of a possible 120 (Table 2). This was in stark contrast to 1986 when fishing at Eufaula was poor . The catch of big bass was outstanding. In the 33 tournaments reported, fishermen caught 163 bass five pounds and larger. Jordan and Miller's Ferry had total scores close behind Eufaula (Table 2).

In July a questionnaire was sent to all clubs participating in the program asking if club members would be willing to supply more detailed inform~tion about the lengths of fish caught and species composition of the catch. Twenty-eight clubs replied and most indicated a willingness to provide additional information. Based on that positive response, the 1988 B.A.I.T. tournament report postcard was amended to include blanks for numbers of bass caught by length group and by species. The additional information requested is strictly optional. Clubs that cannot provide the length-by-species information should continue to provide the basic tournament data.
