A fish entered may only be entered one time throughout the event. Fish entered must be of legal size. No stingrays, skates, other rays etc. allowed to be entered. Kids are exempt from Texas fishing licenses, but if they wish to retain a Red Drum over 28″, they will need to purchase an Exempt Angler Tag ($3) and bring with them the day of event. This tag is available for purchase at any location where TPWD Fishing Licenses are sold.
Other: Kids participating must supply their own rods, tackle, and bait. An ice chest is recommended if you would like to bring fish home. Also recommend bringing a bucket to put water in to transport fish to weigh-in. This will help to keep the fish alive if you wish to release after weigh-in.
