FISHING DERBY RULES
The rules reflect the Dunlap Lake daily catch limits. Anglers (or their parents) are asked to record each fish species and length to determine the winners. Fish are measured from the tip of the snout to the end of the tail fin, when the fin is pinched to a point. Measure to the nearest half-inch with a ruler or flexible tape measure. Anglers are encouraged to release fish after measurement unless you plan to keep them.
Panfish and Gamefish Divisions: Total lengths of up to 15 fish including up to 3 largemouth bass, 6 catfish, 2 striped bass, 2 walleye, and 15 panfish (crappie, bluegill and other sunfish)
Lunker Division: Total lengths of up to 6 fish including up to 3 largemouth bass, 6 catfish, 2 striped bass, and 2 walleye
All fish must be caught by participants. Participants in the Panfish Division may get assistance from an adult but the child should reel the fish in.
BE SAFE AND HAVE FUN!
