Start: 05:30 – 06:00.
End (way-in): 14:00 – 14:30. (No grace after 14:30 and any late submissions will be disqualified).
NOTE: Members who do not make the morning starting time (06:00) will have grace until 07:00 to collect their Score Cards from the Competition Secretary, wherever he might be. Late-comers can contact him on his Cell (073 605 5567) to establish his whereabouts and to collect their Score cards BEFORE 07:00 from him. Please note that he WILL NOT issue Score cards to members who do not meet the final cut-off time of 07:00. Any members who do not meet this grace period shall be disqualified from the competition. They may, however, participate in the day’s fishing on a non-competitive basis and attend the weigh-in/ social event, thus earning 15 points for attending the Social event.

3. General:
