Onboard Procedures and Fishing Rules
Each angler may bring up to three rods, but only one rod may be used at the rail at any given time.
Upon boarding, anglers may select any available rod holder along the rail, leaving at least one empty rod holder between yourself and the next claimed spot. This will be your starting location for the first drop.
You must reset your starting position at each new drop.
Once fishing has started at a drop, you may move to any open spot—an open rod holder signifies an open spot.
Fishing begins only after the first official drop is announced by the crew. No lines may enter the water prior to this announcement. Early fishing may result in disqualification.
All keepers must be verified and measured by the mate. First keeper prizes will be awarded in real time as fish are caught.
Please bring a cooler or fish receptacle for your catch.

$100 awarded to each of the first 20 anglers to land a legal keeper.

For each confirmed keeper, the mate will issue a marker. Markers will be redeemed for cash at the end of the day.
Optional Pool: $50 cash entry for Largest Blackfish (by length). If multiple anglers are in contention and any wish to release their fish, the winner will be determined by length. If the fish in contention for the pool are being harvested the winner will be determined by weight.
Additional Notes
