Registration for the contest

Registration for the contest is in May.  If you stay around the site, you'll see a lot of stuff about it in May or next year when it's time to register again.

 

 

 

Let there be fire!

Contest rules

Articles--FAQs--Instructions for the 2015 Contest

I don't think the rules have changed at all since 2015.

Don't confuse this with the article on the Ultimate Summer Fishing Challenge. That happened last year because of Covid, and it was really different from the normal contest.

Rule change

I think starting in 2018 it was specified that any entry must be from somewhere with an open season on that species. For example, I could go somewhere and catch a Northern Sunfish, but they are a threatened species in Wisconsin so I don't. This year I caught a Lake Sturgeon June first on the Wisconsin River, but the season doesn't open until September, so I didn't register that species until I caught one from the St Croix, which has a catch and release season that opens during the second half of June
