Full Strawberry Moon Fishing Tournament

Full Strawberry Moon Fishing Tournament
Friday, June 9th to Sunday, June 11th




Over 3 Million in prizes!!!


Anyone can enter tournament. No signup required, no entry fee!
(95+ fishing required to catch a big fish)


Participating is easy!!!
Post screenshot of catch in this thread.
Big Fish datestamp must be between 06/09/2017 & 06//11/17
Winning fish will be verified ingame so keep fish until end of tourney.
Mounting a trophy fish will remove the datestamp.





Fishing Feats: How to win these prizes will not be announced rather awarded to the angler who accomplishes a pre-determined feat. For example, there might be a prize for the angler who turns in the 100th fish. The angler who does the pre-determined action will win the prize. I will be submitting a list of these pre-determined feats and prizes to UO:R Staff before the Tournament begins to ensure there isn't a perception of a bias in awarding prizes. My advice is to participate and turn in fish no matter how big or small.

​

Note: The statue above is from a ratman in Ice Dungeon. Years ago, they dropped as loot however once event/colored statues were released, several players turned in the hue 0 ratman ones to Event Vendors and didn't receive platinum. Given the confusion, the ratman statue drop was turned off/patched out and no longer spawn.

​

Rules:
* The tournament will be held from Friday, June 9th to Sunday, June 11th, 2017. All fish weighed in must have a datestamp on those dates. (Note: datestamp is based on UO:R time, US Central, -6 UTC)
* Prizes will be distributed the following week.
* Fish weighed in will be credited to the angler, not who turns. Anyone can submit fish for any angler. Angler must be present to claim winnings.
* Use as many fishers as you like. Again, fish is credited to angler marked on fish. (some players use more than 1 fisher)
* An angler can only place 1 fish in biggest and smallest categories. For example, Fisher X might have a 10 stone and a 12 stone fish however only the 10 stone will be credited in the smallest category. In addition, Fisher X can also place in biggest with a 199 stone fish.
* No sign up required! Simply post a screen shot of your catch but keep it for prize reward and... DO NOT MOUNT FISH. Mounting a fish will erase datestamp. Fish will need to be verified ingame to collect your prize. Only fish weight will only be recorded. You keep your catch.
* Anglers tied will split the prizes of the two respective places. For example, Anglers tied for 2nd place will split the winnings for 2nd and 3rd place.

Notes on Fishing:
Double-click on a fishing pole, then click on a body of water. If successful, you will catch a fish. You might catch something more interesting than a fish. Success with this skill also depends on the availability of fish in that specific area.
0-65 - On land you will fish up Magic Fish, and Normal Fish.
80+ - Sea Serpents (No SoS Message), Special Fishing Nets.
90+ - Treasure Maps 100 - Messages in a Bottle (aka MIB) / Waterstained SoS Message
95+ - You can reel in Big Fish which can be used to make Trophies via Taxidermy Kits.
You can get to 100 skill/Grandmaster fishing from land. Once you have attained 95+ fishing, acquire a boat. They are player-made (check player vendors, forums, or IRC). You will need a boat to get offshore into deep water to catch Big Fish.

Many thanks to the generous sponsors and UOR staff
who make these Tourneys possible!
