Any word on next year?  If we catch fish on the first can we save the submissions?
Kayaking without wearing a PFD is like drunk driving.  You can get away with it for a while, but eventually someone dies.

Yes, save your submissions.    We'll get the Pay Pal link soon after the first of the year. 

In years past, as long as you payed your registration in January you were able to upload any of your January catches.   Unless one of the other AOTY admins objects, that will be the case again this year.

Sounds good to me. Also people are asking me about any rules/points changes for 2018, and I don't know what to tell them.

I think rainbow trout, Kokanee, and maybe halibut could use a points buff while yellow perch and panfish deserve a boost.  Or we leave it as is.

I’ve added brown trout this year.

The new AOTY site is up and running.

You’ll need to reset your password using your email address and the “forgot password?” Link on the sign in page.

The PayPal link is live on the NWKA page and at the bottom of the rules page.

Its harder to look at the overall points for each species under the new format, but I would pick a number, say the top 5% or 10% for each species and see how many are over 200 points.

Likely none of the panfish or yellow perch are even close, so they could use a bump.

Rainbow trout, kokanee and halibut have some high scores for the largest ones entered, but I would only drop their point value if a large enough percentage of the entries are well over 200 points.

Some of those giant trophies are legit outliers. Especially halibut which in 2A have seriously restricted openers for most of the fishery, and look to be even worse under the IPHC preliminary data for 2018. Maybe an Alaska adjustment is appropriate, maybe not.

Will there be a "most recent" again?  The Facebook page was good for that but not everybody uses that.

Other than that, bring it on!

Is there still a way to see all the entries for each species, like in the old format?  It's cool to see the all-time biggest fish for each category.

Or maybe it's right in front of me and I'm missing it  ???.

The site is a complete rebuild so some of the old features are still being rebuilt.  The priority was the log in/sign up, upload page, and leader boards.’uf The per species pages will eventually make it back.   As for the recent catches, I’m working on doing sort of a slide show page for that.  If anyone has an idea for a view of the data they’d like to see let me know.

Okay, I've added the species pages and "most recent" pages.

The species pages can be accessed from the "species" link in the menu or just click on any species icon on the site.  (if I missed a link to an icon let me know).

Thanks for your hard work on this Brian and whoever else is involved.

I really like the new pie graph for the species showing the percentage from each state and the bar graph showing the number caught my months

There are similar plots for each angler.  Click on the angler names listed in the detail section of the leader board.

That is so cool. I made myself a chart of my points, standing etc. It's definitely taking a lot more points now just to maintain a spot in the middle of the pack. Gotta catch more and bigger fish this year.
