Pre-Tournament Check-in: Boats will be checked-in, in the parking lot. We will assemble (park your rig) on the left side of the parking area. Pull your rig down until you see the next open parking spot. Park your rig. We will assemble and have our
morning meeting in this area.
Check-in will occur from 6am to 6:30am. We will have CT DEP signatures to collect in the morning.
Your launch number will be on your check-in handout. After the meeting, we will launch our boats quietly, and idle out
to the no-wake buoy and wait for the 7:00am launch.
Official Tournament Start Time: 7:00 AM – Beyond the no wake zone.
Check in (tournament end): 3:00pm
Special Instructions: The ramp can get crazy on the way in.
Please allow Tournament Director (the bright yellow
Skeeter) and Anthony Longhitano (black and yellow Triton) to pull ahead of you in line as we drop our partners and
pull our boats.
The faster we can get our boat out, the faster weigh-in will start. Thank you.
Check-in: (See Rule #15 for those penalties which will be assessed if you are late). When checking in, give your launch
number to the individual with the orange vest on the end of the concrete near ramp.
Weigh-in: Will commence approximately 20 minutes after check-in. Only those bags handed-out by the Weigh Master will be
permitted for transport of your catch to the weigh-in area. Weigh in, sign your slip, get pictures, release your catch and return
your plastic AND mesh bag to the weigh station. Both team members must be present at the weigh-in. Please tag your
“Lunker” If you have a fish which is close to the minimum size, you must measure the fish yourself and decide to include it in
your bag, or not. Once the fish hits the scales, all length determinations will be determined by the tournament director.
There will be no courtesy measurements.
Legal Limit: A five fish limit (see rule #13 for guidelines) of fish measuring 12“, per the regulation governing the tournament
waters.

Federal Agencies. You must obey all Local, State and Federal fish and game regulations.
On Candlewood, the incoming creek
at the far north end by the dam, is off limits.
You must have the proper fishing license for the water you are fishing; if you receive a citation and we are made aware
of it, your team will be disqualified.
Safety: A PFD must be worn anytime the big engine is running, this includes during both launching and loading out of
boats. Your PFD is to remain fastened and secure until the big engine is shutdown.
Everyone’s boat must stay at idle in any
No Wake Zone. Absolutely No Passing in a No wake zone!
