OK what do you think of this tourny format..

[Captmikestarrett]

128 meg SD cards are used by pretty much every camera. They are 5 bucks each (less than a fish bag)

Each person at checkin in the morning gets a zip lock bag with a measure tape / ID number card laminated / an SD 128 meg card with the same number written on it / a score sheet

Five fish get photos and that is your limit. No cull rule so the fishing gets tricky. You need to lay the tape across the fish and photo it with the ID card also... And also the particapant can take photos of him or her holding the fish as well...(in fact encourage those photos too) Each fish is verified by the other fisherman and signed on the score sheet.

At weigh in you sit down in a cool area anounce the winner based on total length and play the pictures on a laptop or TV. All cards are collected and all photos stored on a safe drive. Cards are wiped for next tourny..

I have done these with striper tourney's and they are fun. My suggestion is too change the measuring tapes up now and then.

If only one angler has a camera they can swap the SD cards for each pic if needed.

Just an idea..
