50/50 : The three largest TAGGED TROUT OVER
16 inches in length turned in alive will split the
50/50. Largest trout will receive 50% of the participant's
share; second largest trout will receive 30% of the
participant's share; and third largest trout will receive 20%
of the participant's share. If you are interested in entering
this 50/50 drawing you must register for the drawing BEFORE the
Tournament starts at 6:00 am Saturday morning. Since we will be
stocking twelve larger trout we feel the odds are really good that
several of the large trout will be caught. However if at least three
of these trout are not caught we will "roll over" the winners share
of the 50/50 to next year's Tournament. This was not a problem in
2009 as seven tagged trout larger than 16" were turned
in.
Food: As before we will have two food stands
open during fishing hours. We will be serving breakfast Saturday and
Sunday morning starting at 4:00 am at a cost of $5.00 at the Mifflin
County Youth Park.
COMMUNITY
TROUT
We will also have a
community trout again this year. The cost to participate is $1.00.
If the trout tagged with the community trout number is caught, the
fisherman will receive 100% of the money collected if he/she is
participating in the contest in addition to the value of the tag. If
the community trout is caught by someone not participating, the
fisherman will receive the value of the tag only. If the community
trout is not caught or is caught by a nonparticipating fisherman,
the tournament committee will keep one-half of the money and the
other half will be rolled over to the next year. If you would like
to participate in the community trout contest, check the appropriate
box on the application and enclose an additional $1.00 with your
payment. You must sign up to participate prior to the start of the
tournament. The community trout was caught in the 2009 tournament by
David Houser, Jr. and he received an additional $577.00 for his
efforts.
