The halibut division. Very simply, the biggest halibut weighed wins. There will be prizes awarded for the top 3 fish weighed. This is a separate division that you will specify upon check in.

You must launch and land from tournament location, but are able to fish in or outside the bay! Live bait can be brought, bought or caught. Fish must be hooked, fought and landed from the kayak unassisted. Final weigh in is 1 pm and you must be in line at the scale no later than 1 pm.

Newbie Question
 
I fished this last year, it was so fun and just an all around great event. So my questions are, first, they talked about Radio's, which I assume are used to radio the weigh boats if you have a legal fish? If so, what kind of radios/Frequencies are used? Second, I heard that there was a secondary Tournament through Tourney X that dealt with total length of all fish, are they having this again this year? Thanks for the replies and thanks again for a great event!

:paddleersmilie:

Iceman 03-13-2018 10:41 AM

I did agree to cross promoting:

Iceman 03-15-2018 08:18 AM

Thanks Tony! and thanks Bob inside of the final month.:luxhello:

osoone 03-15-2018 01:33 PM

Signed up. This will be my first MBC and i am a little curious about the weighing procedure. So are we to keep the fish in our bait tank? Do we call for a weigh boat? I am sure you will go through it all the day of the competition, just trying to get my head around it.

Yes that's usually the way it works. Catch a fish hold on to it until the weigh boat can come in and weigh it for you. You have to call them of course...not complicated at all.

Iceman 03-15-2018 03:41 PM

We have 2 weigh boats and gracious volunteers stepping up again this year. In the bass division you will be hailing a weigh boat or just paddle over when they are in your area. The 14 inch minimum length required means lots of fish caught with not a lot weighed in.
