Thread: Championship

Was it decided that a kid could fish the championship even if said kid did not fish 3 tourneys? I think it was discussed but can't remember

What adult you wanting to fish with?

I was gonna get my kid cousin to fish with me if noone else wanted to fish with me!

Pm Major. He is on vaction but will get back to you.

I'm pretty sure I remember Yikees saying no.

I agree but Major should have final say so.

Actually I was being facetious. Wasn't this issue brought up recently concerning "The B's"? It was my understanding the directors voted for kids to be able to fish; with Yikees being the only negative vote. What happened?

If your interpretation of the rules leads to some being excluded, you're probable interpreting it wrong.

Out come was kids under 18 can fish if i remember correct. Thats why i said pm Major.

ATM is correct. The rule is clear and says everyone. Age isn't a factor when qualifying for the championship but everyone is welcome to join us at Butla.

14) Championship Qualification. New rule: To qualify to fish the championship, everyone must fish at least three (3) regular FJ tournaments. In the event that a person fishes with multiple partners and qualifies for the championship, that person can choose anyone that has fished at three regular FJ’s to fish with them in the championship. In the event that a co-angler (not boat operator) fishes three (3) regular season tournaments with another person, that co-angler also qualifies and can bring a boat and fish as an angler in the championship, however, that person's partner (if he chooses to have one) would also have to have fished three regular FJ’s. Regular entry fees of $40.00 per boat plus an optional big fish pot of $10.00 will apply to the championship.
