So you can't weigh an over in the 5 fish limit?

Same here I caught 2 unders for 3.82 pounds and my dad didn't catch any but I lost a few unders at the boat before I finally checked my hook and realized the point was bent over and was not penetrating and then caught a few slot fish but 2 was better than none I guess.

We got on them fairly good, caught the 9.10 over around 11:30 and had a limit by 1.
Didn't read the rules very good and forgot the over would not count towards the stringer limit. Kind of a weird deal but it was a great day on the water thats for sure!

They made the rule after a couple years of people catching an over and no
Unders and winning all the money. They would win the over money and the stringer money. Guys that we're catching 5 good unders we're not getting any thing. Now they have three categories. Over, stringer, smallest bass. I was fortunate enough to catch the 11.70 over. It was tough fishing yesterday we had 7 bites all day the over a 8lber that pulled off at the boat and 5 unders for right at six pounds.We stayed in the same area al day because we knew the fish were there. They started moving up after lunch.

You have to have an active account and have spent x amount of money within a certain amount of months to be eligible to have a team in the tournament. Never heard the rule about jackpotters. Only one person on teams has to be affiliated with the company doing business with Elliott. It' basically a fun Tournament for its customers that still pays a descent amount of money.
