Any rule violation could result in disqualification.  Rulings and/or tournament changes will be decided by members of the executive committee.

Pre-Fishing:  The lake will be "off limits" starting at midnight on the Sunday before the tournament.

Any member that shows up late for a scheduled tournament must launch his boat and immediately find one of the executive committee members to pay their fee and have an inspection on their live well.

In the event of a tie, the boats that are tied would split the corresponding points and prizes.

Each tournament 4^th place finisher will receive 2 points.

Each tournament 5^th place finisher will receive 1 point.

Each big bass winner will receive an additional 3 points.

Each participant will receive one point for every pound that they weigh-in (Rounded down to the nearest hundredth pound).

The point’s leader at the end of the regular season schedule will be deemed “Angler of the Year”.

Points will determine the order of launch for each tournament.

Each member must fish at least 5 of the regularly scheduled club tournaments to become eligible to fish in the Classic.  In order for your partner to be eligible he has to fish 3 regular season tournaments with you.

If a team splits up during the season, the club will split their current point totals (both types of points).

If two members of opposite teams fish together in a tournament, they will split both points and weight for standings purposes.

If two teammates fish in the same tournament but with separate partners, the team will be rewarded the number of pounds and points from the boat of the partner that finished worse in that tournament.

Anybody that has not recently been an active member in the club must pay their membership fee 30 days prior to fishing in a tournament.  Prior to the first tournament of each season, the person trying to join must pay enough for that tournament and another club tournament along with their membership dues.  NO EXCEPTION

A guest can fish a tournament without waiting the 30 days, IF they are fishing with a current member.  They are required to pay their membership before fishing, and this will result in a new membership and the collective points of that tournament will be split between each other.  

Guides and or Pro Fishermen are ineligible to join, or fish with the club.
