The Basics:

• Boundaries: Open to the entirety of Brant Lake, Including the Pond located in front of The Hub.  The southern limit is the Dam flowing to the Spuytenduivil Brook on the South End, and impassable fish barriers elsewhere.

• Catch Photo Release Format:  You must release all fish caught and submitted for the tournament, and measured on an approved measuring device (Hawg Trough or Ketch Board.) Event Identifier must be visible in every submission photo, with the fish's mouth closed, touching the bump board on the base of the ruler. 

•  Launching:  You may launch from either the public boat launch on the south end of the lake, or the dock/Launch provided by the Hub shown on the map above.  You may not utilize any private property to launch your boat, unless it is made available to all competitors. 

• Artificial Lures Only.

• Notify us of any issues: We do allow competitors to leave early, as long as notice is provided ahead of time.  We want to encourage people to participate, but safety is important.  We need to have all accounted for at the end of the day.
