A few rules could be changed everyone taking part could be issued with a number as happens on another forums species hunt, and have seperate numbers for the boat and shore sections :wink:

I think thats a super idea John, anyone considering entering this year would like to think there is a level playing field and this would go a long way to put peoples at rest. Shame its come to this :roll:

Leave Dan alone, that kid spends so much time fishing that he will grow roots on that pier, I for one will make it my business to pay him a visit this year and get in on the act, and i'll be bringing me camera :wink: :roll:

just giving this a bump

so far there is no sponsorship for this years comp - but those who wish to can fire away to try and win the honour of site species hunt winner!!!

use last years rules again - unless the species hunt mods want to change it?

by the by if anyone wants to sponsor - let us know
