But anyways, in this event we are going to have the rules like the old times fishing the fishing league where certain fish count for different points. The rules are different and alot of fun. So please teams look at the rules and print them off right now. We are also having a challenge against the St. Joe fishing league. So league please cheer on the teams that will challenge the St Joe league. Now after this event I am going to have a vote on what rules you like the most of.

I leave the docks at 4:30am sharp, so if you do not leave me a meassage and I do not get you on the marine radio before 6am. Then you will be DQed for being a late show. There will be no more checking in after 6am while everyone is fishing.)

2- All fishing events start at 5 am and must pull lines at 11am.

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 6 fish of any kind (Salmon, Coho, Steelheads, Browns, and Lakers) weigh in 3 fish for the 3rd event and weigh in 3 fish for the 4th event. The fish you weigh in for the 3rd event will have to have zip ties on the fish and the 4th event fish will not have zip ties on the 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 box your fish you keep that fish. You can throw back fish if they are not bleeding.

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.

1- Browns= 20 pts.

2- Steelheads= 15 pts.

3- Kings= 10 pts

4- Coho's= 5 pts.

5- Laker's= 0 pts.

BONUS points- Any fish that has a clipped anipost fin(that is the fin by the tail) will receive 5 bonus points...

Plus 1 point per pound for all your fished weighed in.

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 Big Fish leader= Ramble On- 12lb. King

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…

Siggs Riggs Fly Sponsor Game Siggs Riggs Leader= Team Nailer- 9.4lb. King

You will be given one Siggs Riggs fly from Matt from Siggs Riggs to have a chance to win flies and a end of the year big prize.

This is how it works:

Whatever team catches the biggest fish on a Siggs Riggs fly with a picture on that event day and post your picture in the result thread. Will receive 3 new Siggs Riggs flies and the team with the BIGGEST fish of the year. Will receive a $50.00 gift card for Siggs Riggs from Matt from Siggs Riggs.

Good luck captains..

You are #11 on the sign up sheet. The only teams that can go against the St. Joe league are the top 5.

I have a camp site reserved for Friday and Saturday night. How many more are staying at the campground?

I have a Black 4 door Chevy Duramax with a truck camper on it. If any one will be around and would like to say hi, feel free to stop by. We'll have a few frosty ones one ice and am glad to share our vast (or lack there of) fishing expertise;).

[tltorrice]

Ken, I also have a reservation at the camp site. I will be in the Tent Section and will look for you. I am not sure what time I am getting on Friday Night it might be very late.
