How do you determine the points for a specific fish and how does someone like me look at your results and understand what size the fish were that you caught?
Thanks

Marty, we run a points system for conservation reasons where each species is awarded points depending on how likely they are to be caught etc...

E.G. A Cod must be at least 35cms to count. For a cod of this size the angler gets 20 points for catching a cod of minimum size. For every cm over minimum size you gain another point so a 40cm cod = 20+5=25 points. Whiting are 3 points, Dab 6 points etc....

That is why I put the results on with roughly what was caught and where so people know where to go the following night (or not as the case may be ).
