3 Fish In 2 Days

The rules are simple. Weigh your best 3 fish over a 2-day period. Any fish you count toward your 3 on day 1 cannot be exchanged on day 2. You can weigh any, all or none of your fish on the first day, but once you fill your 3 slots your 333 weight becomes final. That’s it in a nutshell. Sure, there’s more specific rules which you can (and probably should) read HERE, but those are the basics.

3 Ways To Win

Your 3-fish weight is only one of the 3 ways you can win in the 333. There are also Big Fish Bonus prizes that award additional cash for the biggest single fish in multiple categories. You can also win by competing in the 333 Founders Cup Multi-Port Competition which tracks your progress throughout the entire season and awards additional cash at the end of the year. Multi-Port Competition is optional. It has its own separate payout and its own separate entry fee. It also does not take anything away from the individual port payouts that happen each week on the Trail. So in other words, even if you only fish one event per year, you can still win big in the 333!
