Still need a location and weigh master.

HAHAHAHAHA dont flatter ya self lil man, but i do speak good about ya . . . . . . . . . . . from time to time:p

W you scared of them waders huh. Lol.

No just wade fishing you can spread wide and cover what it takes two drifts in a boat to cover..... Reason why its never used in any kind of tournament

Drift between the teams.

So will the tail be pinched for measurement?

I don't think so. It will make it hard for everyone to check their fish and have the same measurement at the weigh station. It all depends on how it is pinched. If no pinching, everything is even.
How does that sound??? Subject to change if majority wants pinched.
Just trying to keep it simple and easy.
