It seems most of the people I know, do or have participated in some sort of these fantasy sports team things... Since I fish, and
don't really follow sports closely, I've decided to make up my own version of the game. So jump in if you want to participate.
Fantasy Fly Fishing Team
How to play
-Pick any 5 WFF members for your team.
-Any photos your team members post in their FFFT gallery of fish caught between 05/01/08 until 07/31/08 will be counted for points based on the scale below.
-Players may not have the exact team, at least one member must be different.
-The player with the most points at the end will win a prize. (Some flies and a fly fishing dvd)
-Your team must be chosen by 05/05/08 (No edits allowed on your team pick post after that date)
-You can pick yourself to be on your team, but will only receive half of designated points for your fish.
Rules
-If there are multiple photos of the same fish, only one can be counted for points
-The fish must be caught in between the designated time periods. ( no photos scans from the early 90's)
* Photos with just the fish solo, Example: in your hand, in the water or across the legs in a float tube will have to count for half points.
-The fish must be caught on Fly fishing gear.
-All fish must be mature (No Smolt photos for points)
-Fish must be alive and released unharmed. (Gilled or dead fish do not count.)
-In the event of a tie at the end of the game, the next player to have any of their members score points for them wins.
- Players must keep track of your own teams points. Points will be verified at the end of the game.
