Catch & Release
The Nordic River Pike Open is a pure catch & release competition. In other words, ALL pikes must be released back.
Handle the fish as gently as possible!
Measurement and Registration
The minimum length for pike registered in the competition is 80 cm.
Fish to be registered in the competition must be photographed in the Fishyapp as follows:
Note that it is important that you take clear pictures of the fish, as unclear pictures mean that the fish will not be counted in the competition.
The best thing you can do is zoom in on your camera after you've taken the picture. If you clearly see that the pike is against the top of the measuring board and that the measuring scale is clearly visible down by the tail fin, the picture is certainly sufficient.
NOTE: Location services must be on during the competition and when photographing the catch in order for the fishermen to be approved! This is to avoid cheating!
Results
Results will be continuously updated on the website www.fishy.nu.
The update will stop 4 hours before the end of the competition on Saturday.
The final result is presented during the mandatory dinner.
Security
All competitors must continuously wear a life jacket, or other flotation garment at all times on the water. This must always be visible on submitted competition photos!
Applicable sea rules and speed rules must always be followed. In the event of an emergency, contact with the competition management must always take place as soon as possible, and in the case of more serious emergencies and accidents call 112.
Equipment that must be in every competition crew
