I voted 12" and here's why. The more folks that you can have bring fish to the weigh in the more fun it will be forveryone. Plus it's a 12" minimum on the Ohio River, I need all the chances I can get LOL

Heck with it, split the difference and go 13. That way the ones pulling 12 will have to work harder and those pullin 14 will possibly have it good.

the minimum is 15" in most of Kentucky, some places 20" and I believe some are a little less, so hey they're all good to me. I'll vote for 12 though because if you're catching 14's, you're still probably gonna outweigh the guy catching 12's. Just like lizards said, 12 allows more people to have weight.

I say 12 inches. This is a CPR tourney, so there are no legal restraints with how small the size limit may be. And for the reasons already stated, it will make for a full feild with hopefully more limits.

Well, guys, as you can see it is a dead even tie. I'll wait until 9:00 Eastern and see if anyone else votes. If not, I'll make an "executive decision " that won't make anybody mad.

Guess I'm off the hook-12 inch minimum it is! Since this a CPR (catch, photograph and release) tourney, there shouldn't be any problems if someone has a 14 inch minimum in order for it to be legal to keep it.
