Getting to Know Bassing Bob!
Whether you’re a member or not, the story of how Bassing Bob came to be is an interesting one we like to share every now and then. First of all, there is no doubt that BassingBob.com is your one-stop shop for information that is dedicated solely to bass fishing at the Lake of the Ozarks. The amount of knowledge and information that makes up Bassing Bob is unlike anything else. So, without further ado, get to know more about Bassing Bob and the man behind it all, in this week’s blog.
In 2013, Bob Bueltmann founded Bassing Bob after retiring from a successful career in Technology Sales and Business Development. With an entrepreneurial spirit (having also founded his prior company, KnowledgeLake) and a passion for bass fishing, he focused his energy on creating a business that would benefit bass fishermen that fish at the Lake of the Ozarks. “I chose to retire at the Lake of the Ozarks because I love the community and hope to go bass fishing every day possible,” said Bob. “The old saying kept coming to mind: ‘do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life’, I hoped that others could benefit from my daily fishing experiences and those of some of the lake’s expert bass fishermen”. After doing some research, he realized that there was no single informational source dedicated solely to bass fishing at the Lake of the Ozarks, and thus BassingBob.com was born.
BassingBob.com provides local and weekend anglers, vacationers, and tournament fishermen access to interactive Lake of the Ozarks maps, daily fishing reports with photos and videos, expert tips and how-to articles, photos and photo-sharing capabilities, a community forum, and many other bass fishing resources. Since launching BassingBob.com in July 2013, Bob and his team have assisted thousands of fishermen with techniques to catch more and bigger fish. BassingBob.com also focuses on drawing more visitors and attention to the Lake through social marketing, and continuous community engagement. The Missouri Water Patrol Regatta reported the number of boats at the Lake increase from 19,000 in 2013 to 23,000 in 2014. BassingBob.com even plans and executes their very own bass fishing tournament annually, drawing hundreds of anglers – and their families – to the Lake over the winter months.
BassingBob.com draws nearly 15,000 website visitors each month by publishing over 200 articles, over 300 fishing reports, 100 or more videos, and over 3,000 photos. Bob Bueltmann has been referred to as the Ambassador of Fishing within the local Lake of the Ozarks Community. Bob frequently sponsors Lake of the Ozarks events and tournaments, arriving before dawn to provide anglers with coffee, donuts, and words of encouragement. BassingBob.com also sponsors the Mizzou Bass Fishing Club, The Annual Big Bass Bash, local high school tournaments in which he emcees the banquet and weigh-ins. You’ll also see BassingBob.com sponsor and participate in the annual Air Show, Eagle Days, Water Boat Show, all Lake Chambers, CVB, and is an advocate of promoting businesses throughout the Midwest.
Not only does the team at Bassing Bob care about fishing at the Lake of the Ozarks, but they are dedicated to supporting the local community and other businesses at the Lake.
