I am pretty sure you have to go one of the tackle shops to register. You have to pick a pin and hat, pick up the rules and brochure when you register.
The numbers are just the "pin" numbers (when you register you get a derby pin that has unique number on it, the number is used when you weigh in your fish)...some people want a certain number and ask the shop to hold that number year after year. Me?...I could care less what the number on the pin is.
