Since I’m new to the club…..I was courious as to when or how the “harvest goal clocks” for the lakes get reset? Does each lake have different time/date, is a seasonal thing for all the lakes or is it based on other information?

Bill,
The short answer is we have not re-set the clocks. So we are not harvesting bass at any lake at this time.
The longer answer is that we are behind in our assessment of what lakes we will be harvesting and how many to harvest. The answer to harvest is not always cut and dry. Moreover, while we have the lease agreements with our landowners, we do not have full authority to do what we think is best. In many cases, we guide, make recommendations and come to a conclusion with the input of our landowners and then go from there. In some cases where we harvesting bass last year, we will not be harvesting bass this year. In some cases we maybe harvesting more or less than we did last year. Communicating this with our landowners, keeping track of the numbers, re-evaluating each year and then updating our members through the web-site has become a much bigger task than I ever dreamed of. Hoping to have this complete in the next couple of weeks.
