Golden Rule Weightmaster.. was it worth the 20 bucks

A lot of the tournaments here require one during the "catch and immediate release" season as the "weights" are determined by that. I don't think that they are very accurate, especially since a lot of the fish around here are smallmouth and that season is during the spawn so the fish are much heavier.
If you are not using it for that, but only to see if you have legal length fish, I think that any of the bump boards would be fine.

I found a flexible plastic ruler at Academy Sport for literally $1, and a digital scale for I think $15.
Just my $.02
