Rules are posted above, please take the time to read them. This is a one day tournament.

[Peave]

Hi Werner.  Can you please clarify rule #2 for me.  I am reading this to mean that once you have kept 6 legal fish you are "boxed out" and must stop fishing.  Is that correct?

[Popeye]

No it means that if you have your legal state limit in the box you can't throw back fish to upgrade. Fish your state limit bring ONLY the 6 biggest to the weigh-in.

[Peave]

Thanks for the clarification
