Rules for hourly pools (rev:
1). All ticket and pool rules apply except you
may enter the hourly pool at any time, and get a refund anytime before the
start time, even if you have a ticket already.
See posted hours of contest (Contest Cash Flyer). All poles must be reeled in at the start
time.
2). No more than ~25’ of bank space total
taken with all poles. All poles must be
together.
3). You may use a vehicle to transport the
fish (about 10 m.p.h. speed limit). You
can have assistance carrying but the angler must be with the fish.
4). Any fish you have on at the start time
does not count towards this pool (but does for other contests). After the starting time, any fish on counts
so long as it is not held intentionally.
(We suggest you be as quick as possible, we might disqualify you if we
believe you are holding the fish.). The
time the fish enters the baitshop door is the
qualified time.
5). You must throw reasonably-straight,
corner fishing requires shorter throws (as does cove-point-shack). No throwing past the middle of the lake (use
common sense: Courtesy is
required.). Make room for fellow anglers
if they are fighting a fish.
6). If paying pool entry by credit card, a
$3 fee will be added.
7). Fish must weigh 2.0 pounds or larger
to qualify on any hour except sudden death after the last hour, where a 5.0# or
bigger is the minimum.
8). Protests must be made at time of a
weigh-in. We will do our best to
announce by PA every leading fish that is weighed in. Winners will be paid when management is
satisfied they are legitimate. Checks
can be mailed on request. If a
disqualification, the next highest weight(s) for that hour will be the winner. If no winners for that hour, then the payout
is higher for future hours, as described in Contest Cash and/or on the sign-in
sheet. If empty spots on an hour, then
any winners for that hour also win/split the empty spots (contest may only pay
1 spot or up to 3 spots, see Contest Cash).
If no winner the last hour, the first fish in THAT WEIGHES 5.0 POUNDS OR
HIGHER after the posted end time wins the last hour 100% (no second or third place,
if applicable, if it is after the official end time).
9). The pond is OUT OF PLAY for hourly
pools.
