I have a goofy question for clarity:

2. Challenge points. First, if you catch any 3 species on the approved tournament list of legal length in one week (defined as Monday - Sunday), you will receive 10 extra points. These challenge points can only be scored once in a week and cannot be a combination of freshwater and saltwater fish. It can only be one or the other.

Let’s use salt water bass as the example.

“approved tournament list of legal length“
Does this Rule mean three different species of bass 11 inches and larger in length (the minimum Tournament size) or does it mean three different species of bass at their true DFW legal length of 14 inches and larger?

I really don’t mean to split frog hairs.

Thank you,
Dan

Is there going to be a code messaged to us before the tourney starts?

There will be a tourny card you cam print out before we start. The card will be in each picture you submit.

Perfect

Thanks for asking it means the tournament length (our Tournament length so for you and the saltwater bass 11" minimum.

Thank you Jeff.  

That helps because I believe that I've only landed (1) one legal Calico from The float tube in the last 3 1/2 years.
Legal Calico are absolute GHOSTS to me. lol

OK here are the basic rules:

First cutting down the list to 6 fish on each list.
Freshwater Fish List
Fish Points Length
Large Mouth Bass 20 Points (14")
Catfish 25 Points (12")
Trout 20 Points (12")
Muskie 20 Points (12")
Crappie 10 Points (8" )
Small Mouth Bass 20 Points (12")


Saltwater Fish List
Fish Points Length
Spottied Bass 20 Points (11")
Calico Bass 20 Points (11")
Sand Bass 20 Points (11")
Halibut 25 Points (12")
Crocker 20 Points (12")
Sculpin 20 Points (10")

This starts for all on July 8th and will run till midnight Sept 1st. There will be a tournament card sent out to everyone a day or 2 before the event starts. You will need to print off the card and waterproof it somehow (Laminate or sandwich bag there are other ideas). This card must be in each picture you take to prove it was caught during the tournament. All pictures will be posted in a specific thread and that will be attached in a PM with the tournament card.

You can only post 5 fish per week and each fish must show clear measurements as well as clear tournament card. Any picture that is unclear could be marked as no points and in the event of a close call, I have 3 other judges that will look to help me clarify. All fish must be caught and photographed in your float tubes to count. The only exception is a trophy fish that needed to be beached to handle correctly.

Below are ways to earn extra points during the tournament and give you a shot at improving your position in the standings.

1. All fish are approved by length, in the event you catch a large trophy fish be sure to both measures and weigh the fish. Measurement and weight will be needed to verify the largest species of fish caught.


2. Challenge points. First, if you catch any 3 species on the approved tournament list of legal length in one week (defined as Monday - Sunday), you will receive 10 extra points. These challenge points can only be scored once in a week and cannot be a combination of freshwater and saltwater fish. It can only be one or the other.


3. Finally Longest in all species. You can win an extra 5 points for having the longest fish of each species at the end of the Tournament. You can win multiples as well as freshwater and saltwater if you do have the longest fish in each species category. Example, at the close of the tournament you have the longest Large Mouth Bass, Catfish, Carp, Spotted Bass, and Halibut, you will receive 25 extra points to your final total.

Finally, we will at the end have 2 winner one on the saltwater side and one on the freshwater side. These will be our first place winners and they will receive the Cumberland float tubes. We will then be raffling off 4 to 6 more prizes to everyone that posted at least 1 fish during the tournament. In the raffle, the persons that got 2nd place on both sides will get 3 spots in the raffle and those that got 3rd place will get 2 spots everyone else will receive one spot. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask and I will be sure to answer them all. Guys lets have fun and be safe.

Question:
Will FTFF be offering us senior citizens and or us combat veterans a handicap in the up coming Tournament?
Or possibly an earlier start against all of the younger men and women in the Tournament? lol

Heads-up younger people ... I'm gonna give this Tournament my fullest attention, so bring your best fishing game out, have a great time and good luck to all of you ... FW and SW!

SP Dan      <"))><

OK, guys, we start on July 8th I will be working on the tournament card that you will see in your PM's about a day or 2 before the event starts.  You can print them out (color or black and white does not matter).  Just make sure the card is in all pictures that are turned in during the Tourney.  If you are new or not comfortable posting pictures please take the time to test it out for yourself.  You will be doing a lot of practice during the tourney LOL.  Remember there are 2 very important things 2 things of during this event.  1.
