# An angler can only enter the same species up to 3 times in the competition year

Wow, this makes it really interesting!!!! This little gem should test a few I reckon.

I can't wait for the Southerners to complain that we up here in Queensland have more potential target species to chase

ohh poor qld'ers can't decide which fish to enter to many choices, why not come down to NSW or VIC then you can enter bream, whiting, flathead, kingfish, jewfish, bass, trout, EP's, snapper, yellowbellies, leatherjacket, and Bonito. Theres one for every month so I can fish for a different species an never get bored catching the same old thing.
