Please see the FishDonkey app with all the required rules.

Our rules are simple –

• Don’t Cheat!

• Be Safe!

• Have Fun!

• All fish must be caught on Bang’s Lake only. The FishDonkey App takes the photo, it is timestamped and GPS tells us your location.

Aside from that all state laws and local ordinances applied to fishing. Some of those are listed below:

• All participants 16 y.o. and older are required to possess a valid fishing license. We assure you the DNR will be present and checking licenses.

• Fish of each species will be measured by length, with the longest fish and second longest fish of each category winning the respective prizes.

• Kid’s big fish of each species will win a prize. A kid’s fish will not be awarded any prizes other than the kid’s prize for the fish. i.e. A kid’s fish cannot be entered in to the biggest fish of species for larger prizes and in the Kid’s category too.

• Only 3 lines per participant. These lines may be a combination of devices such as Jigging, Dead Stick, Tip-up, Automatic fishing devices, etc.

• This is a catch and release derby as per ILDNR tournament fishing rules.

• ATV/UTV/snowmobiles are authorized for use during the Derby. BE RESPONSIBLE!
