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.

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.
