Contest Rules

The format for the 2010 contest is being updated.  Contestants will be allowed to catch and register fish starting with the opening day of the Michigan bass season.  A completed registration form and photo(s) will need to be turned in sometime before the close of the competition on June 5.  You do not need to purchase a measuring stick or pre-register for the 2010 contest.  The location to drop off photos and registration forms will be the Outdoor Store in Mancelona.  You must personally enter your own fish.  Each person can enter multiple fish, as long as the fish keep getting bigger. 

Please read this document for final tournament rules and regulations.

Here are the Sample Pictures of the photo's required for the fishing tournaments.  No longer required include the one with a mearsuring stick, but that type of photo will be accepted and could determine final placement in a tie breaker.   The man in the photo pays us to keep his picture on the web site.
