Fish anywhere inside boundaries posted on the lake.  You can move anytime you want.
You will be expected to drill your own holes, but we will help drill and set up if needed.
Portables, electronics, ATV’s and snow machines will be allowed as long as ice is safe.
There will be a 5MPH speed limit.  Please drive cautiously and be courteous to others.
Set up on ice starts at 8:30am.  You will not be allowed on the ice until 8:30am.  Please do not arrive before 6:30am.
No lines in the water until start time.  Fishing time will be from 9am to 2:00pm.  If caught fishing before start time you will be disqualified.  We will start the fishing time with a blow horn.

All participants must have a valid SD fishing license.
All SD fishing rules will be followed.  The only variance is no more than 2 lines per person fishing.
We are a catch and release tournament except for Northern.  We would like you to keep them or donate them to the tournament committee.
Please put water in your bucket and weigh your fish as soon as possible.  The weigh-in station will be located at the center of the fishing area.  We will ring a bell every time we weigh a fish.  Frozen fish will not be weighed in and your lanyard must be on when you weigh in.  We will announce who is leading each category and the weights so you can maximize your fishing time.
You will be expected to always have your lanyard around your neck & accessible for fishing spot checks.  When we are done fishing you can turn in your lanyard with your name on it and it will be used for the drawing of the prizes.  Prizes will be drawn after the ice is cleared.  We will announce the winners of each category after the prizes are drawn.  At the end we will draw for our raffle winners and split pot winner.
If the tournament is canceled due to weather, we will draw for all the prizes and cash.
No Alcohol Allowed.
