South Los Angeles Chapter

Our presence in the second largest market in the U.S. is solid. Former Chapter President John Ballotti has built the Los Angeles chapter into one of the strongest in California, covering West LA, the South Bay, and the San Fernando Valley. We have ties to nearly every fishing club in Los Angeles and host annual chapter events and fundraisers, including on-the-water seminars on sportboats out of the local landings.
