Gillies are NOT allowed to actively fish at any time during the actual competition.
In official competition times a gillie must not:
- Cast out a line
- Let out a trawling line
- Strike a rod or handle an active rod at any time
They are allowed to:
- Tie all terminal tackle onto a rod
- Bait up rods ready for use
- Reel in a “dead” rod (but allow them to do so at your own risk because if the rod goes live at any time during the retrieval that fish will not count)
- Land fish without touching the rod
- Assist in the measuring , recording and release of all fish caught .
