The sea hunter - Rules and information
New in 2024
- Only one catch per species can be registered.
2nd place: Gift card NOK 1,500
3rd place: Gift card NOK 500
Each species gives 1 point per registration , and weight has nothing to do with this competition! A 50 kilo halibut therefore counts as much as a 900 gram plaice, or a scallop for that matter. There is a maximum of one valid fish/shellfish per species so you can get a maximum of one points during the year for each species. All catching must take place by underwater hunting (freediving) in Norwegian waters.
- If someone gets a new species approved on the Norwegian record list, this will give two bonus points, in addition to one point for the fish.
- If a new Norwegian record is taken, this will also give two bonus points, in addition to one point for the fish. If the diver has already caught two fish of the species for which the record is being taken, the diver will still be able to get two bonus points for having broken a Norwegian record.
- All catches must be reported no later than 7 days after the date of catch.
- You can register two plastic collections with 1kg of plastic. Each registration gives 1 point.
- All catches that are registered must be registered with the species name, and a photo that clearly shows the catch.
- All catch must be eaten, as with everything else taken during hunting 😋
