Tournament Rule's

1- Must pay entry fee at 4:30am(If you cannot make it and you think that you will be late than please call my cell phone)
2- All fishing events start at 5 am and must pull lines at 11am.
3- Weigh in starts at 12:30(If you get called two times at the weigh in and you are not there. You will be DQed
4- Cost is $15.00 a boat.($5.00 of it goes towards big fish)
5- All boats must only use 6 rods
6- 2-4 Man teams(If you have 4 or more fishermen in your boat as a team you can only catch a 3 MAN LIMIT)
7- Weigh in 5 fish of any kind (Salmon, Coho, Steelheads, Browns, and Lakers)
8- Each fish you bring in at the weigh in is 10 points each.(Up to 5 fish)
9- Make sure when you weigh your big fish for the big fish prize money that you know what fish is your biggest.(NO CHECKING AT THE SCALES)
10- NO - CULL RULE- If you net the fish or box the fish you must keep the fish. There will be no more throwing back fish or less they are under size. If you limit out on kings you might as well go in, because you are most likely to get kings most of the time anyways. Remember your fish counts as 10 points now and it does not matter what fish you get.
11- All captains that fish any event must sign a waiver form before they fish any event. You only have to sign it one time and it will cover you for all five events.

Most Important Rule
1. This is a FUN tournament. We ask people to share fishing tips on the radio (Channel 72). Please keep your comments at a PG rating. This is a family orientated event.

More Rule's
We always have to fish safe so nobody gets hurt out fishing on Lake Michigan. So this is how the storm and wind warnings are going to work. All tournaments must be fished till 8am. If everyone is called back to shore because of any kind of storm warnings before 8am then the tournament will be called off till the blow date. You can either get you entry fee back or I can hold it till the next tournament. Every captain must make sure there radio is working on channel 72 or if it’s looking like the weather is getting to be questionable. Captains better make sure you have a cell phone to call any captain to see what’s going on. The weather man may call the weather nice the day before, but you never know what may happen on the day of the tournament.

Big Fish Game
Each captain will have to put in $10.00 to enter the Big Fish Game. You only have to put in one time only and that is it. You will have to pay me before you go out fishing and not at the weigh in. Any captain that wants to fish any of these tournaments can get in this fun game even though you just happen to sign up latter on.(BUT YOU CANNOT SIGN UP FOR THIS IN THE LAST EVENT) Now how this will work is the captain that has the BIGGEST fish of the year will win all the cash. If you cannot make the last event, I will send you a check.

Good luck captains…

Hello Teams,
Just like to let you know about a few more things going on this year for the fishing league.

1- The point champion will receive a Michigan plaque and also some nice prizes. I will let you know on the prizes as soon as possible.(1 prize is a $50.00 gift card to cabelas)

2- There will be a prize for last place points champ also. There is a $50.00 gift card to cabelas, but you must fish all five events and not get skunked at all. You must weigh in at all five events that I will be running.

3- Our major fly sponsor Siggs Riggs has a very nice prize to.

Here is his rules:
To: Caznik
I will send out 30 of the new pulse flies for you to hand out at the first tournament. I will also send out 18 Pulse flies which you can give out three, for each tournament, to the person who catches the largest fish on a Sigg's Rig fly. The person who catches the biggest fish on a Sigg's fly for the year will receive a $50.00 gift certificate.

Matt

Ok guys,
Just like to say good luck and I really hope that you will have a very fun year this year and please take as many pictures of products that you catch fish with that are our sponsors and please post them in the results thread after I get it made, everything like that helps out the league.

Thanks,
