"Worth" is what a catch of that species is worth before any of your own skill counts — higher means harder to find and harder to beat.

02Trophy Score

What is a Trophy Score?

Every catch is scored against the IGFA all-tackle world record for its species. A 1.4 kg perch at 80% of the record still beats a 90 kg tuna at 15%. It means every species is worth chasing — and every angler has a shot at the top of the board.

Atlantic Blue Marlin 1,011 lb / 1,404 lb 72.0% Trophy

Atlantic Bluefin Tuna 269 lb / 1,496 lb 18.0% Logged
