The interactive maps can be zoomed in and individual catch return details by angler or team can be shown.

The information and interactive service FRCAS can offer will be of real benefit to competitions and would hugely increase the interest from non participating anglers and media (TV, online and print). Anglers would learn a great amount from that information.

Our competition service can be used by fisheries that are already members of Fishery Reports and by fisheries or waters that are not members. F.R.C.A.S. compliments Fishery Reports or can be a standalone service.
