FLW Striper tournament!!!

[reelecstasy]

Slot limit- 28"-34" that is the slot, so basically the best you can do is 2 fish at 34".....
As far as swapping out fish, as far as I know that is a no no, but I cannot say with 100% certainty, but I believe that is illegal ???

Hey Moses, like RE said it is any fish in between 28 inches and 34 inches, so what you want is 2 fish that are like 33.99999 inches with a big fat belly. As far as replacing smaller with larger, I am not sure as I need to go back and look at the rules again as it has been a little while since I read them. I would say that once the fish is definatly in the boat, that is were it will stay unless you decide not to keep it in the 1st place and try for a bigger one. BUT like I said I need to go back and check the rules to be sure.

Jules - I just got off the phone with Bill Carson, FLW Striper Tour Director (nice guy). He does have an exemption from the state of MA for this tournament to throw back a smaller fish if a bigger fish is caught. He has a signed letter from Diodotti of which a copy will be handed out to each team prior to tournament. He's actually on his way to Mass now for the Marina Bay leg of this tourny.
