     Registration will be Friday March 28 between the hours of  4:00 pm -8:00 pm at the Helen Chamber Office, 1074 Edelweiss Strasse, Helen , GA.  The Festival's Demonstrations, Vendors, and Food, between the hours 4:00 PM and 8:00 PM on Friday, are open to the public with FREE ADMISSION.  Registration for the tournament, on Saturday is 6:00 am - 9:00 am, at the Helen Chamber Füssen Biergarten on Edelweiss Strasse. Cost is $10.00 per person, children under 12 - $5.00.  Saturdays Festival hours are 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM with Demonstrations, Vendors and Food and FREE ADMISSION to the public.

      A Georgia fishing license and trout stamp is required by the State of Georgia; rules on lures and bait used during the tournament are the Department of Natural Resources  rules of fishing in the Chattahoochee River in Helen.  The Helen Chamber of Commerce will put in 250 -300 pounds of trophy size fish and DNR will be stocking the river for the enjoyment of all.

     To win the prizes, anglers must catch one of the tagged fish.   Twenty plus tagged fish worth $2200.00 will be released.  New to this year's tournament, 'Shuler's Great Outdoors' is sponsoring a tagged fish worth $1,000.00.  The Milton Davis fish will be worth $500.00 to the angler that catches him. Three $100.00 fish, four $50.00 fish, eight $25.00 fish will round out the prize list. In 2006, the $500.00 tagged fish eluded fishermen; in 2004, a red tail hawk claimed the top prize.
