Each team participating in any 2009 CFF Bass TX, shall have a total of 150 CFF posts, in any combination between the two anglers. This can consist of one member with 150 posts and a guest with 0 posts. Additionally, any CFF member lacking 150 posts ("NON-Qualified member" will be allowed to participate by using one of two free passes. This means that a member with less than 150 posts may fish two TX’s with another non-qualified member or guest. Both non-qualified members and the guest will have used their free passes. The "non-qualified members" will be encouraged to enjoy the fun and fellowship and contribute back to CFF by posting and the guest will be encouraged to join and contribute. Any new members (non-qualified) should print their user profile and present it with their driver’s license at sign-in.
*** THE 2 FREE PASS RULE WILL BE WAIVED AFTER THE 5TH TOURNAMENT. NO MORE FREE PASSES WILL BE ALLOWED AFTER THAT POINT***
* No Live Bait, No Trolling, No Locking Through
* Numbered tokens will be drawn for each boat at sign-in. This token is the responsibility of each team through out the tournament and must be returned prior to designated deadline. Any lost or unreturned tokens will result in zero weight for both anglers.
* Official Tournament Deadline will be pre-determined before blast-off. Additionally, “token return” instructions will be given at sign-in. Any team wishing to weigh fish, are required to return their token prior to deadline. There may be a two minute grace period invoked for some ramps, for safety reasons. Committee members will be present to assist this process.
* Dead Fish - 1/2 Pound Per dead fish. No More Than 1 dead fish can be weighed per boat. If a boat possesses 2 or more dead fish, they will only be allowed to weigh their LIVE fish.
** POINTS

Example:
Joe and John partner in a TX and have a total of 18 lbs. They each earn 18 points. The next event, Joe and John fish with different partners. Joe and his partner weigh in 20 lbs and John and his partner weigh in 8 pounds. For the last 2 events, Joe has a combined total of 38 points and John has a total of 26 points.
* A year-end point’s champ will be crowned at the Classic, as well as a trophy for the biggest fish of the year.
* The best of 7 Tourmanents will define your points for the Point's Championship
** CLASSIC –

* To qualify, one must fish AT LEAST 4 out of the 9 regular season events.

* Brown is Brown. There are some smallmouth that contain a tooth patch, but a brown fish is a smallmouth

* A fish still in question will be voted on at the weigh-in. Committee members will make final decision
** SAFETY –
* Participants are encouraged to abide by all state and federal regulations and take all necessary precautions to provide for their safety.
