Please be sure to read the Important Information contained below concerning eligibility for this tournament.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING THE USA BASSIN LAKE SANTEE OPEN
Lake Santee is a private lake managed by a home owners association, the Lake Santee Property Owner’s Association. With that being said, all rules and bylaws enacted by the homeowner’s association must take precedence, first and foremost. We have received several inquiries concerning eligibility to take part in our tournament. According to the by-laws, only boats registered to property owners who are members in good standing of the association are permitted access to the lake. In addition, one member of the tournament team must be an association member or immediate family member (spouse, child, etc.). This rule, unfortunately, does sometimes exclude participation by teams who don’t meet those rquirements.
With all that being said, THERE ARE NUMEROUS LOTS FOR SALE at Lake Santee! These lots can be purchased for very reasonable prices and, in doing so, allows the owner(s) full access to the lake and all included privileges. Interested parties may contact the Lake Santee Property Owners Association office at (812) 527-2943 six days a week to learn more about the community and obtain lists of lots for sale and local real estate agents contact information.
If you are interested in becoming a part of one of the Midwest’s best bass fishing lakes, take a few minutes and research Lake Santee. As tournament directors, our goal is to include as many anglers in our events, not exclude them. However, we must abide by the association’s bylaws to do so.
Thank you to everyone for their understanding in this matter.
God Bless,
