Due to late arriving team rosters, Registration will be THURSDAY ONLY from 3 to 4. CAPTAINS ONLY

Launching out of the Northeast River of the Chesapeake will be 22 teams from 4 states looking to punch their ticket to the Regional for their State. Due to the Wuhan B********, we will not be allowed to have our traditional trademark family cookout during the weigh in and awards presentation and the weigh in can not be attended by family or other fans. We will be getting as many pictures as we can to post and we will have a small awards presentation so we can give the winners a lot of great prizes. Go to the Youth Tab and then High School for photos and results

Launch Time: 5:30am

Check-in Time: Flight 1 – 2:45pm, Flight 2 – 3:15pm.

Check in boat will be in place at 2:30pm. Do not “buzz” the check in boat. IDLE ONLY speed and be sure you hear him repeat your boat number back to you. Anyone who does not check in with the check in boat will be marked 15mins late. If you come in early, you will have to go out and check in with the check in boat. There will be NO check in at the trailer or with ANY other tournament worker. Late is Late except for a boat towing in a competitor (you should call and let us know) or a boat who has otherwise rescued any competitor and bringing them in (call only when emergency is over). Note: check in times STILL APPLY to the towed or rescued boat.

Weigh-In Procedure: Due to social spacing requirements (at this time) you will remain IN YOUR BOAT and will be CALLED BY BOAT NUMBER to weigh-in. After you weigh your fish, you SHALL put them back in your livewell, hand your weigh in bags to the tournament worker and take your fish NO LESS than 100 yards beyond the buoy – your coangler can get your truck while you are doing this. Any competitor caught dumping their fish at the ramp will be disqualified. If the social spacing guidelines are otherwise relaxed or removed, we will run a normal weigh in with full tanks and announce it in the morning. The fish release WILL REMAIN the same.

Off Limits: There will be NO locking. Any area marked no fishing or if you are fishing in a marina and you are asked to leave, you will leave that area.
