SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!

We are using the IFGA and Fips-Mouche Rules as are our guidelines.

All common practice fly fishing methods and fly fishing tackle will be allowed.
All fly fishing must be done on Public Water. (Private or pay water is prohibited).
3 Fly barbless limit.
Only fish hooked in the mouth area, i.e. in front of the gill cover will be eligible for the awarding of points.
A Foul hooked fish will not score /a dead fish will not score.
No ‘hole holding’ will be allowed by any outside resources.
That the netting of the fish can be done by either competitor.
The angler may assist with the measuring of the fish (protect your points).
In the event of the loss of a fish by a controller or angler, no points will be awarded (protect your points, work together).
Record the time, fish measurement and fish type onto the Scoring Sheet.
Must have the competitors confirm catch information by signing their scorecard at the end of the session.
Fishing etiquette is required, expected, and mandatory – do not be pushy with area anglers.
Fishing begins immediately after being assigned your controller and continues until the cut off time.
Must return to Scoring Center by set time or a Point Penalty will be applied – a deduction of 2000 points.
Scoring - Fish (trout only) that is greater than or equal to 20 cm, using provided Measuring Tube.
100 points per fish, plus 20 points per cm – example a 20cm fish = 100 + (20cm*20pts = 400) + 400 = 500 points scored.
Biggest Fish Scoring – measured by length, if a tie occurs, then ADD next largest fish until winner.
If there is a breach of a rule, it is the controller’s responsibility to gather the facts and evidence necessary to prepare a report for the event committee.
The captain’s meeting– we will go over the rules and any modifications then.

The spirit of the Rally is to enable Teams to fish the water they know, the way they know!

The event format will be a ‘Fishing Rally’. Each team will meet in the morning at the Scoring Center where a controller will be assigned to each 2 man team. The team will then take a single vehicle and fish anywhere they want. Valid driver’s license and vehicle insurance is required. The accompanying Controller must measure and record scoring fish. There will be a set time to return to the Scoring Center and failure to return on time will void that days scores.
Fish the water you know, the way you know!

We are planning to have the Controllers drive and provide the transportation for each team. We must encourage safe driving and to stay within the limits of the law. Get a map, plan your days fishing. Watch the clock. Be back to the Scoring Center on time. We must live to fish another day!
