RE: Anybody interested in a bass tournament..
Date in pic sounds good
How about best two fish, that way a 10 lb fish cant just mop up the tourney.
What about laying the fish on a ruler for size comparison too?

RE: Anybody interested in a bass tournament..
I like the ruler idea..but it has some problems
Problem is..it's very hard to ..
get a 24inch fish completely in the pic..
AND a 24" fish can very from 5 - 18 pounds..
Chreck out the Texas state record..[:-][:-]18 pounds ..25 1/2 inchs
Also..we need to think about the fish I don't like keeping her out too long..sometimes they don't recover..
I'm open to the feedbackby the others..my vote is no ruler..too much time out of the water and too hard to get a 24-26 inch fish on there..Crappie are tough enough.
I like the 2 fish idea..
Waiting to here from others
Also..I need to know how you all feel about live bait..I will go with the concensus of the group.

RE: Anybody interested in a bass tournament..
I'm in on the tourney.
Some of my ideas:
[ul][*]Largest two fish of the season should be calculated together to get a final weight for the tournament[*]Possibly different species divisions (ie. Largemouth, Smallmouth, Striper?) [Do this because a big Small Mouth will get no recognition aganist a Largemouth??] (just an idea?)[*]Keep the North/South Divisions[*]Date must be in the picture some way or another[*]No need for a ruler IMO, judging Bass weight isn't that difficult and if someone is that hard up to lie for a "Just for fun online tourney", well, let them win. As long as the picture has some sort of object to judge size against you can differentiate a 3 and 5 pound fish.[*]All hook and line techniques (excluding snagging)[*]All bait (live and artificial)[/ul]

Some of my ideas:
[ul][*]Largest two fish of the season should be calculated together to get a final weight for the tournament[*]Yes sir..Oneshot7 suggested this early..We will go with each individuals 2 best fish
[*]Possibly different species divisions (ie. Largemouth, Smallmouth, Striper?) [Do this because a big Small Mouth will get no recognition aganist a Largemouth??] (just an idea?)[*]Probably stay with just smallmouth and largemouth
[*]Keep the North/South Divisions[*]yes sir..and like Josh said if your in VA..you may opt to sign in north..Those states can not compare to Texas and Fl.
[*]Date must be in the picture some way or another[*]AMEN..we will stick with that rule religiously..[*]no mercy on the date
[*]No need for a ruler IMO, judging Bass weight isn't that difficult and if someone is that hard up to lie for a "Just for fun online tourney", well, let them win.10-4 too much time for fish to be out of the water As long as the picture has some sort of object to judge size against you can differentiate a 3 and 5 pound fish.[*]I may use a ruler anyway { When I can}because I plan to get a 10 pounder this year.in which I will mount..[*]All hook and line techniques (excluding snagging) yep
[*]All bait (live and artificial)The local tackle shop will love me..I'm out for the double digit this year..[/ul]
