2006 Slot Values

During the Off Season the Tournament Office established a special commision to investigate the color-to-fish value of the measuring devices used as part of the scoring system and recommend changes to the system for 2006. As you may recall, the 2005 Tournament resulted in a tremendous number of fish in the White and Black categories. The chart above shows the spread.


The special commission on fish value report contained the following comments and recommendations:

1. The Tournament Office is a well run, world class orginazation;
2. The Commissioner is fair minded and just;
3. The color-to-slot values should be adjusted slightly to accomodate conditions.

Based on the input of the special commission the following is a comparison of the 2005 and 2006 values
