Here is the link to the instruction video for the app, which can be downloaded for free at the Apple App Store or from Google Play:
The App gives us real, live scoreboards throughout the event and is an important part of marketing this event to spectators, so it’s important to become familiar with it. The week before the Open you will be able to practice with it and make sure it works well on your smartphone.
Glory Photos from the app will be used in the live coverage, so please take them wherever possible.
RULES
• Rules mirror those of the Daiwa BREAM Series.
• This event is 100% app based - run on the ABT Tournament Series App.
• 5 fish bag limit per angler per session.
• Rough weather may see the Moreton Bay arena reduced to the Brisbane River (only).
OBSERVERS
ABT will allocate camerapersons or observers to many of the boats on the first day of competition, as the tournament progresses, observers will be put on leading boats. Observers are allowed to assist only with App data entry and interview camerawork. They are not able to assist with anything to do with fishing, including netting fish or operating the boat.
