  REMEMBER - all these points are calculated for you by the Georec website - no mathematical abilities required !!
   
  So Steve wins the FLURE Challenge with 526.9 points. Not only were several of his fish species larger than the other anglers, he managed to catch a pickerel, which nobody else caught, giving him the extra 100 points. Jenny and Bob both caught 3 species each, but Jenny's fish were consitently bigger, giving her the edge.
   
  As this example shows catching as many species as possible is the first step to success. But if your opponents catch the same number of species, you had better make sure you got some big ones to increase your species points.
   
  The Average SP (Species Points) is a competitor's total divided by the number of species they caught in the challenge. This is an indication of whether they consitently catch bigger (>100) or smaller (<100) fish than the average. A challenge loser may take comfort in the fact that they have a higher SP than the others, as is the case with Jenny.
             
             
 
   
 
There are two types of fisherman - those who fish for sport and those who fish for fish.
