Ice contest 2017!

[Delawareriver]

Ok gentleman talked with a few of you and looks like there is enough interest for another ice contest. Gonna make it bigger and better. Will be contacting some companies to try to get extra prizes so the more entries the better chance we have at getting sponsors.

Pretty much same rules as past years with a few minor changes.

Tournament will run from January 1st first till midnight March 13th. No entries will be accepted after

Sign up by midnight January 9th.
I will post an image on December 31st that you will need to print out and have in your entries.

Two images will be need, 1st of you holding the fish. 2nd picture will fish on the ice with ice contest image, and measuring tape. **** rule change**** fish and measuring tape should be bumped against a flat surface. You can buy a bumper board (saw cheap ones on amazon for $8), use edge of your sled, piece of wood, tackle box it doesn't matter as long as the nose of the fish and tape is bumped against something flat and we can read the tape measure. Tape measure should be easily to read, tail of the fish should be touching or as close as possible. Please place the tape measure below the fish closer to the camera so it's easier to read.. It's not that hard guys if you use common sense.
If you don't use a bumper or picture is poor, the 3 judges and myself Will come with an estimated measurement. If an estimated fish ties with a bumper fish the bumper fish will win end of story.

I will be looking for 3 active members that aren't entering the tournament that are willing to judge in case we have some close entries at the end of the tournament. PM me if interested

*Oddball category is any species that there isn't a category for, could be channel cat, hybrid, golden shinners, trout, carp, rockbass or anything other species. Njfishing members will vote for their favorite or most impressive catch

Last but not least is the Ice King award. For each category (not including oddball) will award points. Each member will only receive points for there largest fish. For example if saxmatt catches the three biggest muskies he only gets 10pts, the next member with the largest muskie will get 9pts. So it's important for guys to try to enter large fish in each category even if they aren't big enough to win.

1st place is 10 pts,
2nd place is 9pts
3rd place 8pts
Etc right down to the 10th place fish receiving 1pt.

At the end of the tournament the 2017 Ice King will get a nice award and prize.

If you don't like these rules don't enter the tournament.

Contest will cost $20 like last year-- I will jump make a $100 dollar donation to get this party started.
