There will be a First, Second and Third place prize for total points. Any and all ties will be broken by the largest fish posted. No split pots. Also this years winner will have their entry fee next year waved as the defending champ.[#4040ff] FULLMOONFISHIN has donated $100 to both the largest Trout and largest Non Trout. Any ties will be broken by a more exact mesurment of the fish. $75 for second place. $50 for third.[/#4040ff]



If you catch a say a larger Perch but have one posted already no problem. Post the new perch and your points will be adjusted. You don't get both but the larger one will be the one counted. [/size][/font][/size][/font][font "Verdana"][size 1][font "Verdana"][size 1]

Here we go... Bring on the ice.

Please put me (Hookngrinin) and BIGbites on the list.

I know we are used to Fuzzy winning but it was TMAS that won last year. So TMAS should be the one exempt from the entry fee.

Thanks for catching that. I keep timing out and loose everything. Fourth time was the charm but didn't get all the changes in.

PM sent.

[Jacksonman]

So no changes to the rules or format except that we have to disclose the exact location of small lakes with big fish?[crazy]

I would say that is digression rather than progression in the format.

Can we wait until the last day to post all of our fish from the smaller waters to not draw as much attention to the lake or can we just email you the location so we don't have to disclose it to the thousands of viewers who don't put in the hard work to find the lakes?

The rules are pretty much the same this year. You will have to post the name of the lake if you want the points but the only rule on when you post your fish is by April 20th.
