2014 Contest

Welcome everybody to the 2014 Big Fish of the Year contest. I just wanted to update everyone with the 2014 contest info. We have selected the species and the word of the year. We have been holding off on putting information on the website because we wanted to get everybody signed up first. That said, I thought I could put up the basic info.

The word of the year is "Zinc." So make sure get a photo of the fish on a ruler with the word "Zinc" on it. See the full list of rules in the link at the top of the page.

The contest rules have been updated and one minor change has occurred. There is now a rule that states that the fish must be caught in a sporting manner with the hook in the mouth.

The payouts will be slightly different this year as well. We decided that with over 10 participants we would double the prize money for the bonus fish. The 2014 bonus fish winner will receive $40 and the primary fish winner will get the rest.

There is a change to the email notifications. If you participated last year you should have received an email every time this website was updated with a new post. Unfortunately that feature is only available for up to 10 people. This year our contest is currently at 12 with more possible. I may try to manually email everybody but be sure to check this website just in case.

Lastly, I will wait until February 1st to announce the species and start posting photos. If you have paid and don't know the species please email me at Griggs021@gmail.com
