Yes, 2 fish under 27" . Pinched tail, on the line at 27 is good, over the line . Fish is DQ. Must be alive.
A word of advice, buy a chek it stik measuring board. This is what they will be measuring fish with at the tourney. Not all boards are created equal

Why not measure fish as it lays? ....I see the point but as the fish lays should be under or over 27,,,Not how the tail pinch is....

I think every fish is measured like that, the tail pinch. If you look at the LDWF handbook, it shows the same method.

LA Saltwater series will deduct 1/2 for each dead fish. In a tight tournament it will hurt you more then help you.
