GONE FISHIN’

Getting to know the Geneva Bass Club

As many know, Geneva offers several clubs for students to join. There is Ping Pong Club, Spanish Club and ASL Club, to name a few. One that may not be as well known is Bass Club.

Bass Club is for those who enjoy the outdoors and obviously enjoy fishing. Bass Club is led by senior Walker Deimund.

Now, let’s get to learn a little bit more about the club. It started when three students were fishing during their free time. They discussed and decided to make it a school club. Rider Egbert, who has been a member of this club for four years, shares about what they do. At the Bass Club, they meet up at different lakes, and “are brought together by their love for the outdoors and fishing.” This club is only active off campus, due to the fact that there are no fishing opportunities on campus. They meet up as frequently as they can. Some of the members’ favorite parts include the following:

“I love being with a group of brothers that share a love for bass fishing. I love getting to spend time outside and in God’s creations,” Egbert said.

However, another member of this club has a different perspective of being a member in this club.

Senior Cole Hodo says that his favorite part of the Bass Club is, “pretending to like fishing.”

Even though he does not enjoy fishing, he still loves being a part of this group of young men. The Bass Club is currently made up of only seniors and is looking for younger enthusiasts to step up and take over in the upcoming years.
