The aim of the species hunt is to catch as many different species of sea fish as possible during the competition, regardless of the size or weight of the fish.
The MMBFC Species Hunt will run from the 1st July2024 to the 30th June 2025
Only fish caught within tidal, saltwater in UK & Ireland waters can be entered into the species hunt. This includes the open sea, estuaries harbours and any other saltwater water body that is subject to tidal movements.
We expect all entrants to submit their entries as soon as possible after capture. The competition is not based on fish sizes so there is no reason that species cannot be entered as they are caught.
