West Coast Whoppers 2008 Rules & Registration

[WCW Moderator]

Jackpots


Four optional yearly jackpots (Heaviest YT, Heaviest WSB, Heaviest Halibut and the Heaviest Slam (all 3)) are the same like in WCW 2007.



Yearly Jackpots

Cash payout will be awarded for the top 3 biggest fish in each category. Payout is as follows:

1st place - 50%
2nd place - 30%
3rd place - 20%

The cost of entry is $20 per category. A small Paypal fee will be subtracted from each entry, the remainder of which will go into the jackpot payout.

All jackpot contestants must enter Jackpot PRIOR to catching/submitting their JP fish.

The four Jackpot categories are:

1. Heaviest Yellowtail
2. Heaviest Halibut
3. Heaviest White Seabass
4. Heaviest Slam (largest total weight of all three species)


Monthly Jackpots

NOTE: will not be running after July 2008.

The biggest fish (yellowtail, white seabass or halibut) caught that month takes it all.

The cost of entry is $10 per month. A small Paypal fee will be subtracted from each entry, the remainder of which will go into the jackpot payout.



All jackpot contestants must enter Jackpot PRIOR to catching/submitting their JP fish.

Note: all Jackpot submissions will be under extra scrutiny by WCW officials. Only the first 2 verification methods (certified weight at OEX or a picture of a certified weigh-in slip from other certified weigh stations) are accepted for JP submissions. JP submissions without verifiable proof of certified weight will not be accepted.

The yearly and monthly jackpots will be determined by actual fish weight to one decimal place. Just like regular WCW submissions, jackpot submissions can be upgraded. Jackpot submissions must be caught on or between June 28, 2008 and June 27, 2009, and are subject to WCW 2008 submission eligibility requirements.

Aside from the monthly and yearly jackpots, are there any prizes
for the overall WCW 2008 winners?

[WCW Moderator]

Dave, yes the exact prizes have not been determined yet.....probably a years supply of beer and stuff like that.

Sponsor prizes will be awarded for the top placed anglers.

[wavster]

Very cool.


Nate, have you begun enjoying your YT ale yet?
