I honestly don't mean any disrespect to anyone but am sorry this ain't for me. My opinions are that foul hooked fish are just that " a foul" a fluke, you will never know if your fishing skill actually fooled that particular fish into taking your lure.
So for these reasons ill opt out of the challenge, thanks guys & good luck ;-)

That's a shame, i did count foul hooked fish last year, and i don't think it would be right to change the rules mid challenge, maybe I'll look at changing it for next year. I hope you'll still post your reports and offer you opinions and advice on the site even if your not partaking in the challenge.

Maybe you could add a dummy to your list of fish and foul hooked lip hooked whats the difference? Both just caught his lure was in the right place at the right time

Hey it's only a bit of fun, but honestly allowing foul hooked fish, is that what's its come to ? Your only kidding yourself if you really do believe that you actually caught it, no different to snatching salmon with a pair of big trebles IMO.
As a lure angler I want to fool the fish into taking a artificial lure, I personally don't want to use them as a gaff. Fish don't have hands to touch & feel so even if there inquisitive they will use there mouth to do this.
This is only my views & opinions , nothing against any individual so please don't take it personally. ;-)
Get jigging pirks down the side of the pier for the lure caught / belly caught lumpsucker lol & in the marinas for a mullet;-)

My dummy is firmly in its place, we don't all have to agree with foul hooked fish;-)

we need a like button same as Facebook!
Well said that man,I totally agree with this post,if you kept a foul hooked salmon,you'd be kicked out of any self respecting club and that's a fact.
Foul hooked fish on a lure how can they possibly count? For a fish to be lure caught it mist have attacked the lure and be mouth caught..was thinking of joining the lure challenge but not with foul hooked fish allowed..its a joke
Got to agree with bassboyo , foul hooked fish shouldn't count it's not sporting. I would like see you finish the challenge this year it's been good watching your speicies list grow. And if the rules don't get changed next year bow out .
Tight lines to all
