2006 Best of the Best Blackman
Owners Tournament
Rules:
-
There are NO entry fees but you must be a Blackman owner
to participate! Blackman Skippers must be current with
their BOCA dues during the tournament ($20.00 annually)
to compete.
-
No minimum weights other than all entries must comply
with applicable California and/or Mexican fish and game
regulations for size to qualify
-
Time frame will be Novembner 14, 2005 until one week
prior to the fall BBQ held in late November 2006. Skippers
can enter at any time but fish can only be submitted that
are caught after the date the dues are paid and Skipper
has officially entered the tournament.
-
The boundaries will be the California/Oregon border
to the North and to the 30 degree line South of Point Loma.
-
Points are earned based on the point system below. Only
one fish from each category is counted at a time. Skippers
may replace a previously submitted entry with a larger
fish of the same species up until the end of the tournament.
Total score is calculated by adding the points earned for
each species. Skipper with the largest overall point total
wins
-
Points will be tracked on the BOCA
Leader Board. Each Skipper will have his own page
on the site which will display the qualifying pictures.
Skippers will access their page by clicking on their
name on the BOCA Leader Board
-
All fish caught or released on your boat (by any angler
on board) will be credited to your boat.
-
Proof of catch and weight:
- Photo - A photo of the fish (including the boat)
to be submitted within 30 days of the catch. Photo
will be posted and weight added to the Skippers total.
Skipper is responsible for insuring his totals are
updated correctly by monitoring the site and advising
Charlie Watson of any errors as soon as possible
- Weight - Preferred method is to weigh all fish on
land with a quality scale unless practicing catch and
release in which case weighing the fish on board is
acceptable. Skippers are encouraged to calibrate their
scales before the tournament starts and periodically
throughout the season. All weights rounded to the nearest
whole number with .5 being rounded up to the next whole
number.
