Scoring, classes and assessments
● The competition has two classes:
● Spinning fishing - Allowed methods are hand tools, i.e. spinning, fly, vertical. Only one rod per participant is allowed.
● Trolling fishing - When trolling, four (4) fishing lines are allowed per fishing license and a total of a maximum of 4 fishing rods per boat.
● Man kan välja vilken klass man vill tävla i dv.s man kan köra både spinn/Trolling o vinna tävlingen i totalen eller så så väljer man att bara spinnfiska eller trolla och då har man chans att vinna totalen samt den klass man väljer .
● Prizes awarded are 1-3 for the team that gets the longest 5 pikes regardless of class, 1 prize for the team that gets the longest 5 pikes in Spin and 1 prize for the person who gets the 5 longest in trolling and 1 prize for the person who gets it longest pike during the day.
● The total length of the team's five (5) longest pikes will be your final score.
● The competition officials are the judges in the competition, and decide whether the pikes have been treated correctly and whether the measurements you provide are correct. If cheating is suspected, the pike will not be counted. These decisions must be respected.
● If several teams end up with the same final result, it will be decided by the longest individual pike. If teams have the same length there as well, it will be decided by the time at which the longest pike was reported.
● Rules regarding the longest fish, if two people caught the same length, the one who reported the longest fish first wins.
General fishing rules
● Handle the fish carefully, C&R must be conducted during the competition, and pictures where the pike is measured against a surface that could damage the fish will lead to disqualification. Such surfaces can be, for example, a jetty, gravel, dry ground or a stone slab.
● A maximum of 4 rods may be fished at the same time.
● Only artificial baits are allowed.
Photography and reporting
● OBS, All rapportering måste ske genom appen ”Fishy Live”! Reports received in other ways will be rejected. More information https://www.fishy.nu/index.php/app
● I Fishy-appen identifierar ni er och loggar ni in via en 8-siffrig kod ni får av tävlingsledningen i förväg. Alla i båten ladda ner Fishy-appen och logga in med samma kod, på så sätt kan ni turas om att skapa och skicka in rapporter. Installera gärna appen på fler telefoner om ni får slut på batteri i någon av dem.
● Fotografier ska tas mot en mätbräda (eller annan lämplig mätutrustning) tillsammans med numret som skickas ut, både nummer och gäddan längd ska synas tydligt. Den ska också fotas för en ”poseringsbild” tillsammans med fångstman + nummer, också där ska numret synas tydligt. Viktigt att mäta gäddan med huvudet mot 0. Inga händer får vidröra stjärtspole eller stjärtfena, om detta skulle förekomma dras det av 2cm på längden.
● The posing photos submitted in connection with the reporting may be published on fishy.nu and in the organizer's channels. The photos submitted are already cleared in the app of all geo-information about where the photo was taken (so-called EXIF information)
● Only report performance increases.
Competition area
● Fishing may only be conducted within the competition area, which is within the permitted fishing limits for Roxens Fisheries Conservation Area and Stångån. If you fish in a prohibited area, you will be immediately disqualified. NOTE, Svartån and Motala ström are not part of the competition area! Respect the prohibited areas!
● A valid, personal fishing license in Roxen is a requirement. Illegal fishing without a fishing license will lead to immediate disqualification and a police report for violating the Fishing Act. During the day, supervision will be carried out by Roxen's FVOF, so bring your fishing license and identification.
● The Fishy app requests GPS position when reporting a catch, to ensure that the fish was caught within the permitted competition area. This position is shared only with the organizer, not other competing teams/individuals. When you install and use the app, you must agree that it can collect your current GPS position.
Generally
● You can use the ramp in the canal and the ramp at the boat club below Upplev, keep the speed at 4 knots in the canal when you drive out.
● The competition management is not responsible for the participants' health, insurance or equipment during the competition. Life jackets are mandatory when the boat is being driven; when you are stationary, it is your own responsibility/judgment that applies. Floatation vests, floatation overalls, etc. are approved.
● Tip: Membership in Sportfiskarna includes accident insurance while fishing, see: https://sportfiskarna.se/Medlem/Medlemsförmåner/Olycksfallsförsäkring
