how about we organise a species hunt ,where we try too catch a set number of species from both still & running waters ,with bonus points for bigger than
average sized fish for species and the winner will be the member who completes the list first or with the greater points ( bonus points only used in case of
tie breaker or draw )
a suitable prize will be found + small trophey for the winner well what do you think , is the idea a winner or stinker ??

Sounds a good idea Ste, but what would stop people posting photo's of personal bests they caught years ago, and pretending they'd caught them last
week. I know most are honest, but you'll always get 1 or 2 that aren't. Or, they would have to take thier photo's with a recent newspaper clearly
showing the date. Just a thought.

yeh the paper thing could work or a witness ! ,but it'll still come down too trust ,and i'm sure with the right mix of veried species ,it could be done
.

i've got photoshop so can use the info tool too see if a image has been played about with ,as in each digital image there is user info embeded that can be
read to discover time and date a photo is first put on a pc etc ,how many layers the picture has ,and even what camera was used .but i think the verify
pictures and add a little twist a object (not directly assosiated with angling ) must be included in the photo !

If the Indian fella doesn't make it in time then for the next 3 months we will have to rely on the country singer "Muddy Puddles"

species hunt 2009 15th march - dec 12th | #10 | ||

there will be a annual shield + small trophey to keep + a prize (probably a fishing rod or reel or personalised peacock hand warmer ! )
The species lists [bonus points ] roach [1½ lb+] rudd [1lb+] skimmer bream [1lb+] brean [3lb+] crusian carp or brown goldfish [1lb+] carp [8lb+] & [20lb+] ghost or koi carp [5lb+] barbel [7lb+] & [10lb+] chub [4lb+] perch [2lb+] gudgeon minnow stickleback tench [5lb+] pike [6lb+] Grayling rainbow trout brown trout The winner will be the person who collects all (or most) species and if more than one person is in line to win the tie breaker will be decided on bonus points ! you would get 1 point for each species ,A extra point if its over the prescribed size and a further point if its over specimum size and if still tied then a vote off by the members will decide the outcome. for a fish to qualify it must witnessed or be photographed with a small cuddly toy in the picture !!!
just place it near the fish ,on the unhucking mat ,or in the landing net or dangles from a loop of line around your neck etc .it doesnt have to be that big
,that should keep things honest and harder to fake .

Oh yes I can see it now, one of us has the fortune to catch a real specimen fish and the pic in the angling press has us with a cuddly toy in the pic
Good idea though Steve, who in their right mind would have a pic of a previous catch with a cuddly toy in the pic You can achieve more with a kind word and a length of 4 x 2

Chav, the cuddly toy thing is either a stroke of genius, or is some sort of perverted ritual that you've been carrying out over several seasons, and now
your masterplan is finally coming to fruition.

There you go ste2260 knew that stuffed duck you were presented with at Homestead would come in handy, it's a pity mallards aren't on the list as
you've had a bit of practice, you would be off with a flying start, pardon the pun.
