Regeler for fiskekonkurransen

The fishing competition has several categories:

Biggest Fish (Children’s Category and Adult Category)
The Grytøy Fish – joint category with a prize for the participant who comes closest to a secret ideal weight

The Grytøy Fish is a competition where participants aim to submit a fish that comes closest to a predetermined – but secret – ideal weight. This year, the ideal weight is somewhere between 1.5 and 3 kilograms – the exact number will, of course, remain a secret until all catches have been submitted! The winner – the one who gets closest to the target weight – will receive a gift prize worth NOK 2,000.

Competition Rules

To ensure a fair starting point for everyone, the following rules apply:

Only handheld fishing lines or fishing rods are allowed.
Only one line per participant.
The fish must be bled immediately after being caught.
The fish must be at least 50 cm long to be eligible – a measuring stick will be provided at registration.
The Grytøy Fish has an ideal weight between 1.5 and 3 kg.
The children’s category applies to all participants under the age of 14.
The adult category applies to anyone who turns 14 before the day of the event.

Example of Fish Size

A fish that measures exactly 50 cm usually weighs around 1.2 kg – slightly below the ideal weight for the Grytøy Fish. So to win, you’ll need to catch a fish that hits the mark – not too light, not too heavy!

Important to Know

You can enter as many fish as you like in the Grytøy Fish competition, but you must pay a registration fee of NOK 50 per fish when signing up.

All participants in the fishing competition must be back inside the harbor breakwater before 12:00 PM.
The deadline to guess which fish will be the biggest at Juksastevnet is 11:45 AM.

Bring your fishing rod and join the fun – maybe you’ll be the one to walk away with glory, honor, and a prize!
