Rob Posted January 26, 2018 Report Posted January 26, 2018 I have seen Neil at Wessex is running a boat species comp. I believe it is for individuals and you can fish on private or charter boats. Starts first or Feb. I will find out more. R Maverick Martin and Brian 2 Quote

Coddy Posted January 26, 2018 Report Posted January 26, 2018 Sounds a bit of a familiar comp Not sure where though fisherman1055, Maverick Martin, sparky and 1 other 4 Quote
Leicester Fisheagle Posted January 26, 2018 Report Posted January 26, 2018 Will run nicely along side the Club Species Hunt and other Species Hunts. More work for Neil as cards have to be printed off and photos verified which I like. Dave L, Jan and myself are aready signed up. Main difference is it is an individual competition on any boat so could appeal to quite a wide group of anglers. Allan. Quote
