I was reading a report here of a guy who caught a ray and got a badge from sea angler magazine i was wondering if i could apply for the bass badge as the limit for the south is 8lbs and 6lbs for the north of england so im above both, would be cool to have and then try for a few more??

They have quite a big prize for the annual winning fish, so if yours is potentially a winner they're strict and vet the entry closely. However, they're a bit more lenient if it's just a run of the mill specimen, they might not ask for a pic of you holding the fish, or check the qualifing date too closely.

Best just phone them up and ask what they'll accept, really.
