Pictures?         Please email your longest fish pictures to paula.matchett@nbed.nb.ca for posting on our website and for determining 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd prizes. 

Note:               For each day of fishing, as well as fish hooked and landed by a student, parents will be asked to verify this information on a tally sheet (attached).  Prizes will be awarded for the 3 longest fish caught.  Photo with measurement will be required.

Students will receive ballots at the end of our fishing period for each day fished, as well as each bass hooked and landed. All ballots will go into the grand prize draw that will be held at lunch hour on Wednesday June 1st.
