OBSERVER
PROCEDURES & POLICIES
The
purpose of an observer is to insure the integrity of the fishing tournament
and maintain equality among the participating boats. The function of the
observer is critical and should not be taken lightly.
DUTIES
- Report
to assigned boat on time both days of the tournament. (Failure to do
this can cause your team to be disqualified.)
-
Record observer log sheet completely after each fish is boted.
-
Accompany the fish through the entire weigh-in process by maintaining
and bringing all recorded data from the log sheets to the weigh station.
THINGS
TO WATCH
- At
the start of each fishing period, check the fish box to confirm that
it is empty
-
Communication with anyone other than tournament officials is prohibited.
-
Maximum of nine (9) lures in the water at any one time.
• Look for a concerted effort by the fisherperson to land the
fish and not intentionally lose or shake off fish.
-
It is your responsibility to know and understand the tournament and
DNR fishing rules and regulations and to insure that they are followed.
I
want to thank you in advance for your commitment to this event and the
Illinois residents that have served in harms way on your behalf.
Sincerely,
Kirk
