RULES

Only 1 fish per participant is allowed to be weighed/registered at any one time. You can register multiple fish but at different times. Fish will be weighed and measured to the nearest 1/4th inch. The winning fish will be by weight, with length used as a tiebreaker. Each subsequent fish registered supersedes any previous fish. Fish must be legally caught in accordance to Ohio laws. All fish must be caught by a registered participant.
