2021 Rules changes
New this year is the use of a poker chip that must be placed on or next to a fish before photographing it.
Tokens are available at Maridee’s Bait and Tackle, Quaker Lane Bait and Tackle, or a Tournament Committee Member.
New Bluefish Rules
Two options are acceptable:
- Weigh the fish at any official weigh station with a digital scale and obtain a signed receipt
- Catch & Release – use a digital type scale to weigh the fish and obtain a witness signature
Then, follow the directions on the affidavit for recording your catch
Fish measurement and photographing
All fish entered into tournaments are to be clearly measured and photographed and show the tournament token.
