Challenge Details:

At the end of each year, I will provide a $100 gift certificate for a future trip with OFC to the angler who catches the largest (by total length) overall fish in each category during a charter.  A tie in length will be broken by the weight of the fish.  The gift certificate is not redeemable for cash.  Gift certificates will be generated during the month of January and are redeemable between the months of March through November of any following year.  Winners of multiple gift certificates may combine certificates for the purchase of a single trip.  Gift certificates may be combined with other discounts.
