Boat or shore. The idea was to level the playing field and discourage cheating. Why would you want to cheat? If the people at OTW think you're weighing in a fish you caught from a boat in the shore division you'll be subject to a lie detector test. By being able to register in both divisions there would be too much danger of weighing in a fish caught in one division in the other. I guess if people are determined to cheat they will. They have to look themsleves in the mirror though, and sooner or later the truth comes out because people who cheat tend to brag about it. What's the point? don't you remember the screaming about the poacher last year? Everyone has to make up their own mind I guess. If someone is scheming about how they can get away with entering in boht divisions, its kinda sad I think. Pathetic almost.

Just in case that was directed at me, let me clarify my question.

Assuming that OTW is awarding 1.5 points per pound for a shore caught fish, wouldn't we assume they are considering a shore caught fish to be more of an achievement. So my question would be, if I were entered in the boat division, and caught a large enough fish that I wanted to weigh in for points/pins/see my name in lights, would that shore caught fish be eligible for weigh in under my boat division entry?
