Also here are the new rules:
New Club 2023 Changes
The 2023 Fishing season is upon us. The NFGFC is fired up and ready to get our tournaments started; however, there are some MAJOR changes to note.
1st.) Club meetings have changed and we will now be meeting on Tuesdays @ 6pm due to lack of private spaces available on Thursday nights and giving those who want to leave early for out of town tournaments can leave the Thursday before the tournament. We will now be meeting at Corner Pocket Bar & Grill- 2475 Apalachee Pkwy # 201, Tallahassee, FL 32301, BIG shout out to them for their support..
Those days are:
Jan 31st @ 6pm
Feb 28th @ 6pm
April 4th @ 6pm
May 9th @ 6pm
May 30th @ 6pm
July 4th @ 6pm
August 1st @ 6pm- Abbreviated/ For NFGFC Redfish tournament... only if you wish to participate.
September 4th@ 6pm
October 3rd @ 6pm
2nd.) The Club is now going to ARTIFICIAL ONLY!! This means no natural bait whether the bait is dead or alive, your lure/bait of choice has to be man made...
3rd.) ALL tournaments will be ramp SPECIFIC and all ramp locations are listed on the new 2023 schedule. We will STILL require a photo of you launching at the specified boat ramp and if you are caught using another boat ramp you will be disqualified. Please remember, Club members are allowed to get to the ramp as early as needed as long as you are not on a plane or fishing before safelight you may idle to your desired destination. You may need to adjust your timing accordingly if your vessel / vehicle is not fit to launch from the designated boat ramp.
4th.) The most important NEW RULE: The NFGFC is now going to a photo digital measuring system for the BIG TROUT POT!! This means No trout over 19” inches will be measured at weigh in PERIOD!!!! Violation of this rule will forfeit all winnings and points for that tournament in the BIG TROUT POT.
All club members who wish to enter the BIG TROUT POT will be required to utilize a club
poker chip given to each team and your own personal Check-it-Stick for measuring/
photographing of your Big Trout prior to its release.
A club poker chip will be given at captain’s meeting prior to the tournament with sign up
as well as a predetermined location so that you may pick up the morning of the tournament.
It will be the responsibility of the team to ensure the photo captures the fish’s mouth
closed and touching the 0”inch end of the “Check-it Stick”, and where the UN-PINCHED
tail falls on the measuring device with the clubs poker chip. It will be the responsibility of
the team to ensure the photo “CLEARLY” depicts this information when taken, and if not,
the photo will not be accepted .We ask that you return the Club's poker chip at weigh in.
All ties based on length of fish will be decided based on the timestamp (earliest photograph wins) of the photo. If
the photo does not have a timestamp it will not be accepted for the Big Trout Pot. All
pictures will be judged by the same club member throughout the year with one alternate if
needed. All final decisions are made by the Club’s
President, and if not present, will be determined by the chosen club member and will be
the final decision!!
