2016 Fish Ladder

We are reintroducing the Fish Ladder competition for a fun, full-year competition for our members to claim bragging rights.   The rules are simple - submit a picture of a fish taken on a valid measuring device, showing the full fish with the length clearly viewable in the picture.   Bring the picture to a meeting, or submit via e-mail or to the Club's Facebook page.   Your fish will take its place on the ladder based on other member entries.   You may "upgrade" as many times as you can during the year - bumping other members down the ladder - or others bumping you.

Fish measured & witnessed by Fish Ladder Admin & Club President Mike Ward - but Mike forgot to take a pic on the measuring board before releasing the fish.... so we'll give Jim the credit.....
