So if you catch,
A six pound fish, you know, it's got to be on six pound line.
You know, you can't catch a three pound fish on a six pound line.
We went through because we were, we, it was our fault at the IGFA.
We had started kind of a recognition program for, you know, who could catch the most records in a year or over time.
And, you know, and we thought about it and like, this is great, you know, getting people interested.
But what we found is that people were actually going out and purposely trying to
you know, just high grade fish over time.
You're only allowed one record per line class per day, but you would see people that were, you know, the 20 pound line class is, is vacant.
Let's say for, I don't know, largemouth bass, something like that.
You know, you'd see a record come in for a pound and a half largemouth bass on 20 pound line.
Cause no one had submitted.
Yeah.
You know, and that largemouth bass is probably a bad one.
Cause that's a very popular category.
Um, you know, we started to get a lot of flack, you know, cause you'd see it, you know, in the monthly publications, you know, like,
These people are, but no fault of their own because, you know, we created the system, you know, we were, we were, we were awarding people based on number of records.
So what we started to see was really a numbers game rather than a quality game and something that would, would, you know, denote more kind of, um, angler achievement, you know, out of the catch.
Yeah.
So we instituted it now so that the weight of the catch has to be at least half of the breaking strength of either the line class or the tippet class you use.
