Rules:
Honor System! We are raising money for people who live and die by a code of honor. Please use honesty.
Catch and Release Only!!
Where can you fish: Anywhere wild striped bass are caught in the Northeast. Any time, any where.
Who Can Fish: Everyone – Don’t need to be a S-B member – invite your friends as this is a great cause. Other sites (where allowed by that site) invite them too.
Single Angler: Have your camera ready – no surprise, the object here is a quick C&R so the camera should be ready to go.
Teams: When fishing with others, one person NOT catching the fish records the fish for the person catching the fish. 1 Fish, 1 Point. The object is a quick turnaround getting the fish back in the water. For a rare moment in your life, size doesn’t matter .
Points will increase chance for prize but do not guarantee prize.
Kids: Under 18 are free when fishing with an adult partner. Kids will have a chance for prizes as well.
We will have a daily tally and a final tally online at FishForSoldiers.com and/or S-B.
State whether fish is Shore, Boat, or Yak.
Favoring a quick release on fish, we will forgo the length measurements.
Honor System!!!!
Prizes
Actual Prizes To Be Determined – we will have some prizes for different categories, such as most fish caught, most days where a fish is caught, best junior angler C&R pic, and smallest fish PHOTO – We’re looking to have some fun here while supporting a great cause.
Prizes will consist of lures & stuff if I can’t get any donations I will go down to the local tackle shop and buy the stuff myself.
Smallest Fish: As we are skipping measurements, the smallest fish will be photographed where a poll will place the top smallest fish contenders for a vote to determine who is the Schoolie Whisperer.
Duration:
3pm May 3rd until 9am May 13th. Final tally due from all anglers noon May 13th
Thanks!
