The program has been prepared so as to vary according to probable weather conditions.

The organization committee is entitled to be flexible in the program.

The 2 days when the actual fishing will take place during the tournament will be determined according to the days which offer the most favorable weather conditions among the total four-day program.

The final program will be published on the tournament website a week before the tournament.

When necessitated by weather conditions, boats will be informed 3 days before, at the latest, and all entrance to the marina may be shifted to Thursday, October 10th; and Friday, October 11th may be accepted as the first day of the tournament.  In this case, boats that fail to enter on Thursday will suffer a day loss.
