................................

For the 2019 tournament, the first place winner took home $400. The prize pool will go beyond the 3rd place prize depending on if we have a lot of turnout. Because we don't know how many people will turn out, the final prize pool will be adjusted on tournament day.

Plus there will be some random drawings as well. Note that you can only win ONE prize. It's possible that you can be in the top 3 and happen to catch the biggest fish. In this case you can claim one prize but not both. You will still get the Biggest Fish title, just not the prize. This is done to allow others a chance to win a prize.

**************** RULES ****************
1. All Oregon fishing rules must be followed by all participants (It is your responsibility to know these regulations)
2. 15 surf perch maximum per angler, and all snagged fish must be released per state law
3. To give others a chance of winning a prize, only one prize per participant
4. Do NOT share your catch with other anglers (if you are caught sharing your catch with another angler, you will be disqualified from the current and all future tournaments)
5. Minors are allowed but you must bring one or both of your parents, or a legal guardian
6. You must register first before you can start fishing
7. You must be at the weigh station by the designated end time (if you arrive after this time, your catch will be disqualified)

Notes: It's best to arrive at least one hour before check-in time so you can get geared up. Be sure to check the weather and swell reports a few days before the tournament. The weather on the Oregon coast can be unpredictable so always be prepared.
