Where is this auction held, and is there a site to see what fish are registered? Thanks Johnny.

Not sure about seeing what fish are registered.  You mean what will be there for sale?  I don't think any auctions do that locally?  I could be wrong though.

You never know what will be for sale until auction morning. The registration in advance does not include the type of fish.
In fact, people that register ahead of time often do not know exactly what will all go to the auction until they start bagging.
Also, there are plenty of people that do not register in advance, they just show up auction morning and register then.

I'll admit, there's a few times I've been in a sleepy haze the morning of an auction trying to figure out exactly what to bag, but these days I try to make a list ahead of time so I'm more efficient!

The impression I got from the rules is that there's no penalty from the MCAS for anyone registering the day of the auction? If so there's a small chance I might try to make it and bring some fish. Dependings on how timing would work out with a birthday event I'm supposed to attend later in the day.

Thought so, then I clicked on the link and read the rules and all. I don't want to jinx it or anything, but it is the plan to make it to this auction. My cousin will be coming with me. Im excited for this. Especially when I read it is being "Catered"... ;D ;D

"Buy It Now" is a table that a seller sets a specific price they want for an item, as opposed to a standard auction where it can sell for as low as $1.
