From Jack: State championship information!
Good evening,
Please remember to send in your tournament rosters and entry fees.
I have attached the list of invited anglers for the championship and the agenda.
Please remind all boat captains to launch the boats; please do not back up the road to the ramps. You can leave an angler to check in at the trailer.
We are NOT putting the tournament waters off limits the week before the championship.
Remind the anglers to keep the boat numbers safe to use for both days. Anglers will need to bring the boat number on day 2 at the weigh-in.
We will be blasting off in reverse order on day 2. Example Juniors 1 to 30 on day one and 30 to 1 on day 2. Same for the High School Division.
Lake Limits are 2 fish-12 to 14 inches and 3 fish-14 inches and over; Limit is 5 fish
Life Jackets are required at launch until the first stop, High School; Junior life jackets are required all day.
Lights on, seated, life jackets on, live wells open, kill switches must be hooked at blast off.
There will not be a pre-tournament meeting on Friday night.
Please be sure to pass the information on to your teams and boat captains as soon as possible.
There are anglers with names that need to be corrected; I will get them corrected from the tournament rosters.
Also, we will need help in the morning and at weigh-in. Please let me know if you are available to assist.
Thank you, and see you all in a few weeks.
