 Ok guys I've moved the rules and updated them, they are located at the top of this thread. Due to a really tight schedule I'm only gonna be able to schedule 2 events for sure and they will be mosquito reservoir and nimisila reservoir. I am working on permits and dates now. Stay tuned.

I’ll try to do both.  Nimi for sure, but we may be in Florida the 21st of January visiting relatives and deep sea fishing if we can get a house sitter.  Will keep you posted.

i plan on having a team there....
Since Ive never fished the panfish series I naturally have a few questions....
Pardon my nieveness....

1) does no culling mean "we can only keep the ten fish we plan to weigh in"?
2) will the whole lake be open to the tourney?
3) in what manner should our big fish be marked?


Sorry for the silly questions or if theyve already been answered.

Just want to be prepared when we arrive.

Thanks..

Culling means that you can't change out your fish, if you decide to keep it and it's legal you must weigh it in. If you don't want a fish or it doesn't meet your standards it must be released. I will allow fishing the whole lake but u must use a public access point (i.e. not your grandpa's backyard, your buddies house etc.) It must be from a access everyone could use.

If you choose to enter the big fish pot you need to keep that fish separate from the others you are weighing in to keep the process going

Nate do fish have to be alive or just not frozen? Keeping fish alive will require people to have aerators and I'm not sure they'll work well in freezing temps.

They just can't be frozen solid like they were caught 3 days prior to the tournament  ;D
