BLT Striper Challenge on Possum Kingdom April 19 -- great Prizes for those who enter

* Late registration will begin at the D&D South Ramp on Sunday April 19.

The Possum Kingdom Chamber of Commerce will be providing $100 to each of the top placing teams that do not draw a check. The Tournament will pay 1 place per 5 entries. If we have 10 teams entered in the tournament the Chamber will be giving the 3rd through the 6th place team (4 teams)a $100 check for just entering the tournament. The top two teams will be splitting the tournament payout. The Biggest Striper will be getting a $100 bonus check from the PK Chamber.

* Up to 6 anglers per team
* Trailering is allowed.
* Guides may enter the tournament
* Each team may weigh in their two biggest fish
* There will be a prize for the biggest Striper

If the team captain registers early on line or by mail, by going to our website, the team does not have to check in the morning of the tournament. The team can go to their favorite launch site and begin fishing at the start time posted on our website at www.usafishingtrails.com . The start time will be posted one week before the tournament date. The team must stop fishing by 1pm and be in line with their top 2 fish by 2pm at the D&D Ramp weigh in site.

The PK Chamber is very supportive of trying to get a Striper tournament series started on PK. We hope all the PK Striper anglers show up for this one, so we can continue to increase participation at the future tournaments.

See you at the lake,

So there must be a legal adult on the team to enter?

Connor - the way I read the rules, you should be okay to fish the tournament and whup your dad and myself. You are 16 right?


PARTICIPATION and ELIGIBILITY: Anyone that has been disqualified from any fishing tournament must inform the TD before entering a Striper tournament (*being disqualified from a previous tournament does not automatically prevent entry). Participation in Striper tournaments are open to contestants who are 16 years of age or older. A wavier must be signed by a parent or guardian for contestants under the age of 16. The TD will reserve the right to disqualify entries. During tournament hours, every boat must have Boat Liability Insurance with effective dates (for the tournament date). There is no minimum, but you must have coverage. These will be polygraph questions. This is a team tournament and there can be up to six adult contestants (16 years of age and older) in one boat as a team. A team will weigh in the biggest two fish caught between them. Guides may enter the tournaments and contestants may fish with a guide in their boat


GMB

Alright thanks for clearing that up.

An angler can fish as an adult at 16. If the angler is younger than 16 they must have a wavier signed by a parent or legal guardian and have an angler 16 years or older In the boat with them.

The adult (16 years or older) must have a license.
Does this answer your question?

CBT staff

That makes sense now thanks

No.....boating license or fishing?
Connor has a guides license

Connor has has boating safety course
He is legal and runs a boat by him self regularly

Randy,
We look forward to seeing you both. It will be interesting to see who brings in the two biggest stripers.

Good luck to both of you.

BLT Striper staff

Signed up. See y'all Sunday.

Does a guides license double as a fishing license? Or do I need to buy a fusing license?

I was unable to find out if a guides license is a valid fishing license. My guess is that you must have a fishing license.

Who knows the answer to Woodconner's question?
