The
group specimen sizes apply to all regions of the UK and Channel Islands. Our
aim is not to operate with minimum sizes that will be out of reach for the average
angler and the list below reflects this. We hope this will incorouge more anglers
to take part and feel that the specimen league is not only for the advanced
specimen hunter.

Specimen fish may be caught
and registered outside of group fixtures but must be photographed and have
one witness of capture and weight. Fish must be registered with the group
secretary within 30 days of capture. Specimen fish taken during group fixtures
can be weighed and witnessed on the venue so to allow the release of the fish.
