Fly Fishing Tournament Ideas

I am thinking about organizing a fly fishing tournament on the Cornwallis river. I would like to call it either the "Nova Scotia Two Fly Contest" or the "Nova Scotia Wet and Dry Tournament" something like that.. I see a setup something like this:

Show up in the morning and register. In your registration pack you will have a standard measuring tape and a unique "token". Each fish caught must be photographed with both the token and the measuring tape in the photo.

"OR"

Each angler must also register a partner to land, measure, and photo each fish. If this was the case we could also weight them.

A part of the river will be divided into section and marked off with caution tape. Section A,B,C,D,E after registration all anglers names will be drawn for a section and time. Every 1/2 hour section will be rotated through.

Scoring will be done by points, 100 points to every eligible fish, and 20 points per centimeter of length of each eligible fish.

Prizes will depend on sponsors and number of entries

1st Place Cash and Prize
2nd Place Cash and Prize
3rd Place (entry fee)

Largest Fish Prize


What do you guys think, what parts of this will work and what won't? Ideas, complete changes, one fly, two flies???
