MRDA is not responsible for accidents, fights, divorces, or other trivia caused by fishing this event. Enter at your own risk! You must have a valid Missouri fishing license or if you are ancient and don’t need one, have proof of that! 

RULES – Include the following plus anything else I think of later on: 

1) You must fish from a boat with an aerated live well. 

2) Life vests required when running your big motor. 

3) Only artificial baits or lures allowed. 

4) No trolling allowed – this ain’t no carp tournament. 

5) Eligible Fish – only legal bass: largemouth and smallmouth must be a minimum of 15”; Kentucky bass 12 “ minimum. Illegal fish weighed in – you will be penalized 1 pound for each fish under the legal minimum brought to the weigh-in. Maximum 6 fish per boat. Maximum 2 anglers per boat not including the guide. To hire a guide, contact John Blankenbeker at Blanksbass Guide Service at blanksbass@usmo.com, phone(573-280-1455), if no answer, leave a message. You will receive a call back within one day. The cost is $400.00 for 1 or 2 anglers, tip extra. Guides furnish tackle and lures as needed. While guides may net your fish, they cannot cast, hook, or play a fish or your team will be disqualified. Again, a maximum of 2 anglers plus guide allowed per boat. 

6) NOTICE :If you hire a guide thru anyone other than Blanks bass-you will be disqualified! Period! NO EXCEPTIONS!! 

7) Protests – a total waste of time. 

TIE BREAKERS: 

1) Biggest bass will decide ties
