World boat competitions layout

[mcclay]

I've been looking through results of the world boat angling competitions from previous years and other events and at the end of each persons result it gives a percentage,i'm just wondering could anybody please tell me what this percentage means. :? :? :? :?

The way it works

if you have eight in a boat and the total fish points of the boat winner has 120 fish points as his total score and say you had 60 fish points you would have a score of 50%

the winner of each boat gets 100% its like fishing different zones

in the worlds thet dont fish percentage they fish weight & places


if i won my boat and so did 9 others we would take up the top ten places put in order of heaveist bag

then the next 10 would be all the seconds
then the next 10 would be all the thirdsand so on

hope i shedded some light on it for you
