You do need the help! :lol:
Rays are measured nose to spiky bit...... Good luck with that. :wtf: :lol:
bwahahha, poor mav!
Thanx for being part of a team Mav, I thought (going by other entrants) that everyone would go solo, which is not what we're hoping for. I'd like to set a good example but I don't know how often I'll be able to get out this year.

Sharks are seperate

Pike I'm not sure... I'll discuss with Widsa and get back to you.



Arrow and calamari are separate.

Thanks Hatters and if any one is foolish enough to team up with cruiser so be it

I think short and long finned pike should be separate as they are quite separate.

Cool, I was going to say that, but I wanted to check with you first.

Thanks for organising guys. :thumbsup: I'm in. Put me into the hat for a partner.

Question: Does each team member submit based on their individual login codes or does the team get allocated a team name (that precedes the monthly code)?

I'm under the impression you submit under your own code/username and we'll combine your entries if you are in a team

Yep I reckon each team member just use their own name.
We will let a few more jump on before we start allocating teams.
Keep the questions coming guys, this is a new comp for us so you may think of things we haven't covered.
It's best to figure it all out now so there is no supprises later on.

Black and Yellow fin Bream separate or same?
Edit: Sorry just read second part of the rules.
So if pairing up it would be an advantage to pair with someone who targets different species to yourself to get the most species measured correct?
If so is it two separate comps or are the pairs competing directly against solos?
Cheers,
Matty
