How it works
This fishing tournament score sheet is one weigh-in table in a browser tab: a row for each angler or boat, a weight, a penalty that comes off and a total. No sign-up, no entry list, nothing shown on other phones.

Score a weigh-in: weight, penalty, total
Type each angler's or boat's name over Angler 1, then the weight as the scale reads it, in pounds or kilograms: 12.34. Penalty takes off whatever your event deducts, and Tot is what is left. The heaviest total is marked Leading. Big fish keeps each entry's heaviest single fish beside its total.
A scale that reads pounds and ounces
Switch to Pounds and ounces and type 12 lb 5 oz as 12 and 5. The sheet adds whole ounces, so nobody converts by hand and two equal catches always tie. Fish by fish takes up to five weights, or five lengths for a catch, photo and release event, and picks out the biggest.
Questions and answers
How do you score a fishing tournament?
By total weight or by length. In a weight event anglers compete on the total weight of a given species caught within a set time. Other events are scored purely on length, the longest fish or the total length, each fish photographed and released.
How do you convert ounces to decimal pounds?
Divide the ounces by 16, the number of ounces in a pound: 5 oz is 0.3125 lb, so 12 lb 5 oz is 12.31 to two decimals. The Pounds and ounces sheet does that division once, after adding in whole ounces.
What is a dead fish penalty?
A penalty an event sets for a fish brought to the weigh-in dead. In bass fishing competitors are penalized for dead fish, and in some events a dead fish is not weighed. Where your event takes weight off, type the amount under Penalty.
Can I print a blank fishing tournament score sheet?
Yes. Print blank sheet prints the open sheet with its rows empty: ten to start, or up to 24 on one Letter or A4 page once you press Add an angler. After typing, Print this weigh-in prints the names and weights.
