Heaviest bag comp for me,you could catch 10 fish and your 10th fish could be the heaviest fish however you've probably killed the other 9,couple options could be to increase the minimum Whiting size or have a "no whiting" rule or Codling only comp,only problem is most people go by the NFSA min size rule for comps so you would have to clearly state if you make any personal amendments to the rules on sizes or if you wanted to ommit certain species
you day put up the whiting size
if someone come back with say 15 size whitings
he will get slagged off
but if someone brought back say 15 size cod
he would be praised
If you were to put the minimum size of Cod and Whiting up to 40cm - you'd be weighing 1lb+ fish. These sizes would at least fall in the "acceptable" bracket of keeping the fish...

Heaviest bag with optional pools for teams and heaviest fish
Use measure and realease converted to points and weight.
You can decide to try for small or big fish
Samf use these rules in a lot of comps and it works.
Any fish over 20cm is size for measuring. Better than catching 34.5 cm coalies or codlings all day and them not to be counted.
Lot more skill in catching lots of fish than a "lucky" big one.
I don't agree with bait bans either, if someone wants to travel 200 miles for whites, wade through thick mud for crab then good luck to them they deserve to get some reward for their effort.
Measure and release may be a problem for night time and roving type comps but for safety reasons we should all fish together anyway. Not perched on some rock by yourself with your light switched off in case someone see's you. What would happen if you fell and broke a leg or got washed in??
Heaviest fish matches have their place but why not just put all the tenners in a bucket and at the end draw someones name out of the hat, after all it is a bit of a lottery. You can influence the size of fish you catch by fishing certain areas with certain baits but certainly can't say catching a big fish is all down to skill.
At the end of the day though we go fishing to catch fish be they small or large, and fish competitions to compete against each other.
Well think this post has gone abit off the point but here goes :-
How does writing something like this help Nesa ? Sound like a drunken chav to me
also why are there only so many "contributors" to this site...there are are loads that seemingly only surf for info and never contribute...get your finger out you selfish b*******ds and give something to this site other than gleaning for your own selfish gain...t***ts
Also if you act like this when drunk then i would leave the drinking to adults and maybe post only when you havent been drinking.
talking of making a contribute try not sitting with this months sea angler open infront of you, to make posts i mean 6.30 post per day. Maybe you need to find more interests other than one forum.

Rant Over
Have to agree with Jaguar.
thought the idea was to have a meet prior to the NvS match.
If people think you are an idiot, why speak and remove all doubt !

hi m8 why dont you have the heavest bag and then who ever wants to go in for the biggest fish pays a couple of pound?

This thread is why I don’t post on NESA much now.. Too many people with too many different opinion's and views all entitled to them.
It’s not like having a face to face in the pub, it all seems much more harsh and it's like people are trying to get at you when words are written down.
Just about every topic that is not asking for help or a catch report will no doubt offend or upset or someone will disagree with. I have been a member years and years of this site but find myself just reading the odd thing now as I can’t be bothered with the hassle of explaining my opion or my comments to everyone else that agrees or disagrees with them.
It's a fantastic site and nothing different to a discussion board on fishing than finger painting...problem is everyone and I mean everyone has an opinion that offers may not like.
By the way that is not a rant just my view of the situation...aka my opinion lol

"Drink, Post, Go to Kip and wake up thinking 'Did I really .... No I couldn't have ......To so and so .....Why? Oh no and I can't have ....I fecking did .......No....etc'." (punctation madness)
This never happens to me as I only really pop in here when I've got something serious to say. The rest of the time I'm watching re-runs of The Garage or teaching my kids how to bullfight (NVQ level 2)
I am never offensive anymore as I have all grown up
