Ideas for the 2010 -2011 Contest
#16
Just to pitch in my 2 cents I went with Jackson's suggestions because I thought they were good.

[#0000ff]1) Fish that count towards total:
2 panfish (perch, crappie, bluegill, etc.) - instead of 3
1 bass or walleye (LM,SM, white, walleye) - takes the place of the third panfish
5 of any species but only 1 can be musky, pike or mack.
Also, allow up to 2 of any of the other species to count, so one can have two cutts, and/or two tiger trout count towards their totals. Every year the winner catches a large mack and or pike/musky. SO even if anglers tear up with huge cutts, bows, tiger trout or browns, they are quickly surpassed by one large mack and pike/musky. Only allowing one of these bigger species would at least allow the hardcore trout ice fishermen to compete.


2) Open up fish caught in other states to the competition and invite anglers from other states to join. I don't see how opening up Idaho, Wyoming or Colorado could distract from the competition, but would and new waters, new species and some more fun. I know there could be a problem with cutt-bows but most are obvious depending on where they are caught and if it is difficult deciding, count it as a bow or a cutt, whatever it resembles more. I hate feeling that I have to stay in Utah to fish and I know many anglers feel the same way. I see nothing but positive from this change. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff][#000000]I like the above mentioned changes except I would add the following. [/#000000][/#0000ff]

[#0000ff][#000000]Bass, Walleye, Panfish or Wiper for the "3rd" pan fish place ( this promotes the Willard south entrance use and hopefully will keep it open in the future [Smile])[/#000000][/#0000ff]

5 of any species needs to stay at 8 of any species but only 1 of those can be a musky/pike/mak.

We add a slot as "Biggest fish of the season" This biggest fish can be ANY species. Therefore you could have 2 cutts, 2 Tiger Trout, or 2 maks/pike/musky, or 1 of each of those etc. But the 2nd fish of that species/trifecta is your "Biggest fish of the season"

[#0000ff][#000000]Just my thinking on it.[/#000000]
