The Benning Bass Club's season opener for the 2010 tournament season will be held on Lake Harding, Georgia. Lake Harding is located on the Chattahoochee River, i.e. "The Hooch", just north of Columbus, Georgia. The lake is also known by many as Bartletts Ferry. The lake spans 5,850 acres and spreads along a 13-mile section of the portion of the Chattahoochee River that separates Georgia and Alabama. It is impounded by the Bartletts Ferry Dam. Lake Harding has 156 miles of shoreline in Lee and Chambers County in Alabama and Harris County in Georgia.

It offers excellent bash fishing and has largemouth, spotted bass, and shoal bass. The lake is especially known for good night-fishing in the summer months. Lake Harding is a relatively deep and rocky lake which follows the path of the main river channel. Shoreline cover and the numerous docks provide plenty of cover. Lake Harding is known more for good numbers of average size bass than for truly large fish.
