Qualifying Rules for Measurement:
Derby participants
can enter as many fish as they want, but only the largest of their fish will make the board for qualifying. Participants
are allowed to fish anywhere in the Connecticut River. Fish must be alive when weighed in and disposal of the fish is
the responsibility of the participant. In order to qualify, all entered fish must be in season, and of legal size. Note:
Black Bass are out of season for this event.
Measurements will be as follows:
Weight + Length divided by 9. This will give you a score and we will carry the digets to the 4th place.
Example: 17 (Length) + 2.50 (Weight) divided by 9 = 19.5000. This is the score for this fish, and this number
is put on the board.
50% of the proceeds from this derby will be donated to the Claremont Skateboard Park to
be used for maintenance of their equipment and to help purchase new equipment.
PRIZES:
Top Prize: up to 1/2 of the net proceeds, paid in form of check, up to $499.00 maximum prize money. Money's above
