Re: Fishermen/Tuesdays fishing report...

It's a grey area on alot of PB's. Sign may say bluefish but stripers, albies, bonita or even a small BFT can win. I even saw a snagged drum win once, that was weird. Or a mate hooking a fish and passing the rod to a customer that won with it. But that's a whole other can of worms. Agree with the guy who said it should be announced or maybe printed on the fare ticket as I've seen before.

Every party boat I've ever been on announced the species that count in the pool. And if not, I could see a possible problem.

If more than one species is used for the pool, usually a sign is posted and captain will announce on way out. When fishing multiple species at night all count and is announced at beginning of trip. When sign say Fluke, it's Fluke. When on a boat the captain is in charge. Two hooks in same fish, who's the winner.
The hook that's in the deepest that was ate first. Fifty plus years of fishing party boats and seen it all.:D:D:D:D

You know this "winner" was one of the "special" regulars on the boat. If you caught it blues wouldn't be in the pool.
