It is easy I did the uncut angling fights cancer walleye tournament on their by my self. It isn't hard but it takes some getting used to it. The app has a practice function that always you to play with it to see how it goes.

There is a vid on Uncut angling YT channel that shows how to use the FishDonkey app. It was for his uncut angling vs everyone tournament so I'm not sure if that will apply to the cold lake tourney but at least its a bit of tutorial.

When you go into the App click the "Fish in a Tournament" then select the Magnifying glass, write in "Cold Lake" and the tournament will pop up you can see the rules and details in there looks pretty straight forward first time I've ever seen this app. I've never fished cold lake but really thinking of giving it a go this Winter.

Not sure if this is a silly question or not but do you guys fish the Sask side of the lake. The rules say the Entire lake but would you need a Sask fishing license to fish over there.

nope...you can fish the lake with either license but you have to adhere to Alberta regs regarding the fish catch/keep etc...
