Future species comp brainstorming

[Time Poor]

Here's my tu'penneth,

1. 12 fish, (one for every month. Fish of the month counts double?).
2. 50/50 salt/fresh
3. I think a points system would be better. I appreciate this would require up front thought but I'd use the legal size limit then increment in 10% stages?
4. Option to pay by cheque - I don't trust the internet

Alright guys.I'm putting the final touches on the comp. Heres the changes that will be made. If you are serious about entering give me some feedback. If you arent going to enter then don't demand any changes.

Salt species, Silver Trevally, King George Whiting, Estuary Perch, Leather-jacket, Australian Salmon, Black Bream, Squid (hood length only) Snapper, Flathead (all species) and Mulloway.

Run time, 1st July 2014 to Midnight 30th June 2015, entries to be cut off on New Years Day.

Is everyone happy with this?

Love the idea Duckster,

One question, What's a roach and how do I catch one?

[Tyler]

Looks good. Will it be winner takes all or broken up into a couple of categories?

[Snapper Snatcher]

Sounds good, I'll be entering.

Baygon is killer for targeting roaches. :crazy:

**** I forgot to mention, 60-20-20% Winner of overalltakes 60% and winner of each class, fresh/salt takes 20%

dougie, roach are a small pest species sort of like a combo between carp and redfin. can find them in a lot of suburban waterways.

[Snapper Snatcher]

So if the overall winner also wins both the fresh and salt classes they take 100%?

[Tyler]

Sweet, I'm in.

[ducky]

correct. but it also means a dedicated freshwater fisho can aim for the class win without needing to hit the salt. and vice versa. if we get 40 entrants theres gonna be a $1k prize pool. leaves $200 for a class win. Pretty good prize I think.
