Second picture shows the measure tape but the fish had to give me the big fins up with the 20-30 mpg wind. Not fun

[#005000]please post a JPG picture here on BFT for it to count. Also - didn't name this location.
You can exclude one entry from naming the location, but you need to send a MOD a pm with the name for it to count.[/#005000]

Wow man - you're making my job hard.
I see a solid 12" with the tail curve, so if he's got a 4" tail. . . . some nice deep colors!
I can't read the other file, not sure what format, but Windows7 doesn't know it. Please translate to a JPG or BMP or something more "normal".
I'm sorry - but I need an entry I can qualify. Take 5x the pictures if you need to catch the right moment. The banner should be more viewable. I do suggest your put it in a plastic something. Or get it laminated.
I usually take at least 3 pix - just to get lighting, fish wiggle, windblow - it's all hard to tell through a 3" screen.
Re: [CoyoteSpinner] Ice Fishing Contest: 12/21/12: Flyfishinglover - Flyfishinglover - 12-23-2012
Ya idk what's wrong with format. The big deal pic format somehow turned out that way. Do you have window photo gallery because if you click on the picture it should show some option and you should choose window photo gallery.

Im not 100% but I don't think carp count.

Re: [redfrog] Ice Fishing Contest: 12/21/12: Flyfishinglover - Flyfishinglover - 01-16-2013
There's a little talk about it with mods, so far its a no
ly. If carp don't count they should just erase burbot as well from the contest in the mean while.[signature]

Nice catch, but not a sport fish or burbot (rule 9).

Re: [hookngrinin] Ice Fishing Contest: 12/21/12: Flyfishinglover - Flyfishinglover - 01-16-2013
I hope they will change there mind and count it.

I think the jury is in. The rules are clear - native, nonnative sportfish, with the exception of Burbot. Nongame fish don't qualify as sportfish. So native or no, that would include the chubs, suckers, and carp.
The rules were mostly carried forward from past year's contests, I tweaked a few things, but the core of the rules is what they was.
Welcome to entertain suggestions for next year's contest, assuming I have anything to do with it.
Nice catch all the same.
You should brine it and smoke it!
