When you signed up, it was either/or right?

I signed up for Shore, so that means if I catch a fish on a boat, it cant be weighed in..? right? or am i misinterpreting the rule?

That's the way I read the rules.

that's how I understand the rules. Problem is, how do you prove you caught it from shore? There is always an element of honesty required for a fair tournament.

Here's the rule in question:

• For the club competition only, fish caught by anglers registered in the shore division will be multiplied by a factor of 1.3. Entrants may only weigh in fish for the division in which they are registered.

I have to say it is ambiguous. Clearly, if you're a club participant, you can only weigh in a fish for the division in which you're register for club standings.

Whether you can weigh in a boat fish in the individual competition--for weekly, monthly, grand and pin prizes---isn't so clear.

so being registered for 'boat' I can't weigh in a shore caught fish??? What does that prove?
That is LAME.
