NO TEAM will have any rights to any water prior to designated start time. If two boats from the same start-time arrive at the same spot, neither has priority. You will simply have to share in the fishing spot.
INCLEMENT WEATHER- In the event of inclement weather, you may load your boat to get out of the weather. If you decide to re-launch, it must be from the original ramp that you un-loaded from.
SUNDAY MORNING: You do not need to come to Snowdale. You may drive straight to your boat ramp. You may ask another team to check your live wells.
ALLOWED FISHING AREAS: You may fish only the water of Lake Hudson allowed by law. You may only fish water that is accessible from the lake. Back water that is not accessible from the main lake will be off limits.
AFTERNOON BOATS RETURNING BY WATER: Boats will be considered checked in once reaching the staff member on the dock. Let the staff member know your TEAM number.
BOATS OPTING TO TRAILER: (One Time Only), You must be checked in or in line at the entrance to Snowdale by your check in time. XFL staff personnel will direct you to the weigh-in area. They will ask for your TEAM number (not take off number), so know it! It is most important that we clear the highway. After parking your truck be ready to bag your fish (when bags are available) and immediately go to the holding tanks. If the traffic is bad, you may leave and we will mail the check. If you are in 1-10th place, do not leave until the polygraphs are completed.
POLYGRAPH: You will be asked the following questions (plus others)- 1) Did you leave the ramp earlier than 15 minutes prior to your start fishing time? 2) Was your live well empty on launch? 3) Did you start fishing prior to your start fishing time?
