You know this is like dangling candy in front of a kid and telling them they have to wait for it and not saying how long

In case there is a tie at the end of the derby. March 1 12:00 PM. There will be a sudden death fish off. The first one to post a fish caught after March 1 12:00PM will win. We will need a pic. with the time shown some how and the derby token.

Interesting, won't be able to participate this year as all my spare time is spoken for until the end of March but it's kinda fun to go over different scenarios on how to go about competing.
