Does anyone know where and what the sign in venue and time are. I presume the carpark an hour beforehand.

What is the scoring system ? Minimum sizes, points for dogs/ray etc...??

Thanks.

I think I am correct with the following. If not am sure someone will correct me.

1cm=1point

Min sizes -
Flats 20cm
All round fish 30cm
Rays 30cm (across the wings)
Dogs - 30points 1st to be measured
Conger and Bull Huss less than 75cm scores 45points greater than 75cm - measure and score.
All undersize fish to measured and score 5points.

Hope that helps.
