There is a link on the BASS Nation page on Bassmaster.com with the request for certificate of insurance on it. Please use that link or the one below. Also, when contacting the new broker, please use the contacts below. Please delete any contacts for the SS Nesbit Co. They (SS Nesbitt) are still getting a lot of insurance requests and insurance questions and forwarding them on, but I told them I would remind you all.
