100% cash payout. Last winner took home $420! Next tourney is Sunday the 27th at lake Nippenicket! 6am-2pm $50 entry fee per angler. Join the Facebook group BBS Boston Bass Stranglers for more details or message me here.
Here are the BBS Tournament Rules
1. All boats must be human powered (kayaks, canoes, paddleboard, etc.) or electric powered. No gas motors.
2. Entry fee is $50 and paid per person or team. All fees are to be paid prior to launch. Participants arriving after launch may still participate in the tournament by paying their fee to a tournament official within the first two hours of the tournament; it is the participant's responsibility to locate the tournament officials on the water.
3. Multi-person boats are acceptable; fish individually ($50 entry fee per angler).
4. Artificial lures only, no live or formerly live bait. No fly fishing. No Alabama rigs. No umbrella rigs.
5. All participants must have a valid in-state fishing license and a PFD. No need to wear it the entire time, just have one on board per person.
6. Start and end times are final and absolute...unless voted otherwise by a majority of participants.
7. Digital camera/smartphone and digital scale are required equipment. Please try to get a scale that measures in pounds and ounces. Rapala makes a great one!
8. Scales will be calibrated against a standardized weight prior to tournament start and a handicap established for those weighing light or heavy.
9. Default unit measurement is pounds and ounces. Another unit of measure may be used based on a review of the participants’ scales and subject to a majority vote by the group.
10. Participants must take two photos of each fish: (1) a full body shot and (2) a clear shot of the scale's digital readout and head of fish.
11. Each participant will be given a unique identifier prior to launch, which must be visible in all photos.
12. Minimum weight for a fish is 1lb.
13. Remove lures from fish BEFORE photographing them. Visible lures, line, or any thing in or around the bass' mouth in photos will disqualify your fish.
14. Unclear or questionable scale readings will be subject to review and vote by the group.
15. All photos and weights will be reviewed by the CEO of the BBS. I will review photos, verify the math, convert the total to the appropriate measure if necessary. Your weights are FINAL once I move onto the next angler for weight verification.
16. Up to 3 fish may be submitted; highest aggregate weight wins the tournament. In the case of a tie, the tie breaker goes to the person with the largest fish. In the case of a tie for lunker, the tie breaker goes to the person with the next largest fish.
17. Payouts are as follow:
First Place - 50%
Second Place - 30%
Third Place - 10%
Lunker - 10%
These are general guidelines, amounts may be adjusted nominally to facilitate distribution of the purse.
