Boundary Bass Club Set to Open Tournament Season Oct. 30th

If you're interested in fishing some tournaments on various waterways in the area, here's a chance to do just that.

Gabe Himmelwright informed me last evening that this club's season opener will take place on the North River, with the full schedule to be available in a week or so.

The Oct. 30th event will launch at safe light from Coinjock (also known as Waterlilly) Boat Ramp, 482 Waterlily Road, Coinjock, NC 27923 (the new site, as of 10/23/2021). Weigh-in will be at 3 p.m. Plans call for two tournaments per month through March.

In the meantime, here are the club’s tournament rules for the season about to begin:

     * Must stay within boundaries set before tournament. Anyone who leaves these limits will be disqualified.
     * All live wells must be checked by tournament director prior to launch.
     * 5-fish limit.
     * 12-inch limit in Virginia, 14-inch limit in North Carolina.
     * No culling at launch. Max of 5 fish in live well.
     * Dead-fish penalty is 0.25 lbs. or 4 ozs. With 4 or more dead fish, you can’t weigh.
     * Dead fish are not eligible for the big-fish prize. If the fish isn’t going to survive, it counts as a dead fish and a loss of .25 lbs.
     * Observe all no-wake zones and all safe loading practices.
     * No fishing within 75 yards of someone else (unless both parties agree).
     * $20 per person.
     * $10 big fish per person.
     * $5 launch fee when applicable.
     * Life jackets must be worn if the gas motor is in gear.
     * All protests must be made prior to winner being announced.
     * Tournament director has final say…period!
     * Winter rules: Launch at 8, with 3-fish limit.
