BCFR Summer/Fall Fishing Contest
Well the summer is half over and the forums have been riddled with conjecture regarding snaggers, flossers, First Nations fisheries and DFO. While all of these are important when it comes down to affecting us sporties on the river, I am personally tired of beating that dead horse. This is why I would like to start a fishing contest to help bring back the Fishing Reports to BC Fishing Reports.
Based around Fishortho’s Fall fishing contest from last year, the categories will be the same for each month. However, the Grand Prizes will be different. We want to see reports and/or pictures from all types of fishing (even Bass fishing…Nates
) Lets see your Trout photo’s, Salmon reports from the fly and gear and Monster sturgeon stories. I would like to stress that I would like to see Catch and Release Practices throughout this contest as pictures of live fish are much better than pictures of dead ones :thumbup: . (If you are taking a picture of a C&R fish, please do your part by having your camera ready before pulling the fish out of the water…..nice pictures can even be taken while the fish is half submerged, I know the judges are partial to those ones
)
The contest is as follows:
Each month there are two winners, one for best picture (scenic and fishy shot) and one for best story. The contest will run until November 31, 2007 at which time the last two monthly winners will be awarded and the judges will sift through the stories and pictures for the Grand Prize Winners. The Grand Prize winners will be broken down into these separate divisions:
1. Best Salmon Picture
2. Best Sturgeon Picture
3. Best Trout Picture
4. Best Scenic Picture
5. Best Story
The prizes are still to be determined, but I am determined to get some quality gear to give away.
Contest Rules:
There are only two rules for this contest:
1. Entrants into the contest will be allowed 4 entries per month for each; Story, Fish Picture and Scenic (Scenic pictures also include
wildlife)
2. All pictures and stories must be current, coming from your latest expedition.
