You don't have to be a genius to know that to be competitive an angler will still have to catch mostly yellows, whites or halis. But, throwing in all species will give people at least some points for their efforts, and make everyone feel they are a part of this contest, not just making a donation. No one is going to win this thing by submitting a 5 lb bonito in Jan, a 6 lb barrie in Feb, 4 lb sand bass in Mar, etc. But wouldn't it make it more fun if everyone can look at the leaderboard and see their name with points behind it?
And while a minimum weight of 10 lbs, will make picture viewing more impressive, it will still limit the amount of contributions. In the end, the winner will still be the one catching all THE WHOPPERS. But along the way, all participants can have fun.
Check out the REEL Ironman competition at the top of this forum. You can submit all the trash fish you want.
