This is my thought too... not much into freshwater fishing..
So it would take me out of the running if i relyed on salt only?

Or is there seperate comps for that?

depends on how big the fish you catch are. with the addition of gummies and kings you'd be doing pretty well

and just look at abzz, you don't need to have experience at something going in to the comp just a willingness to try something new.

The idea behind the comp is to give you the motivation to try something new. Get your salt numbers up and you'll be in a position where you'll want to go catch a few trout or get a carp. You'll be hooked before you know it.

I'm more of the opposite to Chris, I mainly fish fresh, only very rarely fish salt, but it's a challenge and a good excuse to try something new to me.

For me it wasn't that I wasn't willing to try, it was just a lack of either time or money... seems like having both at the same time is hard to manage.

Amen to that. Plenty of work means no time to fish. No work means no cash to fish. Haha.
