This week, hundreds of student clubs and organizations took to HUB Lawn to set up tables, booths, and posters to recruit new members. With over 1,000 options to choose from, it can leave many wondering what the best pick is.

While we can’t tell you how to spend your time or that one club is better than another, we decided to narrow down the many options…superlative style.

The “Gone Fishing” Award: Club Bass Fishing

With so much focus on professional development clubs and organizations, it can be easy to forget about the simpler things in life. Club Bass Fishing reminds us that not every club you’re a part of has to be like that. If you like time out on the water, driving boats, or sweet-looking jerseys, Club Bass Fishing may be the organization for you.
