This event is designed to test anglers skills on both lakes in the same tournament.   The first half of the day will be on Lake Barkley and then the last half of the day will finish on Kentucky Lake.   Here are the rules:

1.  This event will be TWO 4-Hour Rounds:  Lake Barkley: 6:00- 10:00;   Kentucky Lake: 11:00-3:00

          -In the event we are running behind during the 1-hour transition, additional time will be added to ensure all 4

           hours on Kentucky Lake will be given.

2.  Teams will have a 5 fish total limit combining your keepers from both lakes.

           -Example:   If you weighed 2 bass from Barkley, you only get 3 from Ky lake to equal your 5 fish limit.

3.  In order for teams not to be given an advantage of seeing what others have, teams must decide whether to release

     or weigh a keeper PRIOR to returning to the Devils Elbow ramp/dock area.  

           -If your team has a fish in your livewell when you return to the dock/ramp area, then it MUST be weighed.  

           -Anyone releasing a keeper after returning to the dock/ramp area will be assessed a 2lb penalty for the

            Kentucky Lake round.  

4.  All Teams must wait until the conclusion of the Barkley weigh-in before traveling to Fenton Ramp for Round 2.

5.  Teams CANNOT transport fish from Barkley to Kentucky lake!   Drained livewells will be checked before leaving the

     parking lot.

6.  After the 4 hours on Kentucky Lake, teams will weigh-in their remaining amount of fish toward their twin lakes

     combined 5 fish limit.  

7.   Late penalty to either check-in time will result in a DQ for that lake.

General FOCAS club rules will also apply:
