The IHSA has conducted the blind draw for release numbers for each of the qualifying boats for this year’s state finals.  The release order is determined by a blind draw, and the Saturday release will be in reverse order of Friday’s release.  In other words, the last boat to be released on Friday shall be the first boat released on Saturday and so on.

We also wanted to inform your school about a special partnership the IHSA has formed with Mustang Survival, the provider of the “Official Life Jacket of the IHSA”.  As a part of that partnership, Mustang Survival has provided life jackets for competitors to wear while fishing.  Life jackets will be distributed on the pre-fish day for the tournament, and schools will return them on Saturday prior to weigh-ins.  Schools will be charged $25/jacket for failure to return their jackets on Saturday.  Schools should bring back-ups for the weekend as a safety precaution

Also, each qualifying boat will be identified through the use of two sets of vinyl decals.  These decals will be placed on the bow of each boat and will replace the flag that has been used in previous years.  Schools will be required to have these decals displayed for the entire tournament in the area identified by tournament management.  These decals can be removed after the completion of the tournament on.
