Hey Greg I can tell you for certain December was world class local yt fishing....It wasn't December dude, maybe January? I think Eric had one in jan though.
Cool stats I also noticed that it seems like the weights were substantially higher than older years... I'm with Scallywag on his ideas but who knows or cares, I really dig the jackpot deal, maybe a year long jackpot? I also think the 20/30/40 weight upgrade is necessary. I don't think that puts anyone out too muchif you guys don't think Dana or Cabrillo are holding bigger Hali's your trippin. It's a great event great competetors and a cool vibe. The good thing is the moderators and judges are actually solid fisherman whatever they decide will be good. |

IMO - this wouldn't be good for competition. There would be months that would go by without some species being submitted. Halibut submittals would go from 37 down to a total of 9 - for the whole year. WSB - submittals would go from 24 down to a total of 11 - for the whole year. YT - submittals would go from 41 down to a total of 18 - for the whole year. Of course, a lot of this depends on the number of competitors, but if the lb limits were raised, that may discourage fisherpeople (gotta be gender generic) from joining. . . . |

Here is one more weight increase idea without going as crazy as the higher suggestion.
BUT - 15 YT - 25 WSB - 35 Based on these numbers, we would have had the following for 2011: Halibut submittals would have been 17 YT submittals would have been 31 WSB submittals would have been 16 This isn't too bad. |

Greg,
Thanks for posting the stats, interesting stuff. WCW has never stayed exactly the same, each year we have changed up something. From the beginning we were happy to have a handful playing and hoped for lots of spectators. Lets hear more ideas!

My suggestion:Those of who who didn't join for specific reasons but wanted to need to speak up, I heard some pretty cool ideas from other guys.
If a beginner, amateur and pro class are created I'm sure we will get more 'fisher-people' to join. Fisher-people can be separated into classes by the numbers of years they have kayak fishing: 0-1: beginner 2-4: amateur 5+: pro. Its hard to compete with guys that can get out 3-4 times a week, guides or those of you that live 1, 3 or even 5 miles from the nearest ocean and can get away as soon as the bite opens.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha
Just keep it the way it is!!! I can see where this is going. Andy said it best small group lots of spectators. It's not broke, don't try to re structure the whole thing just make a few tweaks to the existing format. I would like to make a request to moderators can you guys please issue a "LEGEND AWARD" and I would personally like to recommend Vito as the first honorary recipient!!!!!! |

Since it's a contest for whoppers, don't handicap the fish. Most pounds should total the winner. Minimum sizes are fair. Halibut 10lbs, Yellowtail 20lbs and White Seabass 30lbs.
Your never going to solve this problem, it does make the contest inaccurate. |

Actually....that's not right.... its impossible to compete with guys that fish 3-4-5 times a week. And if you can... you should be awarded the so called "Legend Award" it should come with a 6-pack of dos equis.... "I don't fish often...but when I do, I win West Coat Whoppers!"
