[QUOTE="Bauer, post: 226141, member: 775"] You had to escort your fish to the scale, all fish were in one basket on one scale as I watched several come through the line. The baskets were all numbered for the scale so 1 went to scale 1 and so on. I can 100% agree on the confusion, they need to load everyone, take em to a different area away from the ramp, park em, and have them carry their fish up, going to 1 scale in the process. Figuring out a way for the bad apples to keep from digging into someone elses fish is a whole new story at that point. I have been in 3 tournaments between indian hills and van hook in the last month and fish are running on the light side. August 5th, I had a 27 3/4" fish that went for 6#6oz, another in the same tourament had a 24 that went 3#9oz. I know of friends in the women on the water that would have given anything to have been fishing lake fish rather than river fish. All that current stretched em out and thinned em down. The EMS officials took a pretty good list of suggestions home with them so im sure there will be adjustments next year. While I cant say that there werent discrepancies with the scales, I would think we would be talking ounces not pounds. [/QUOTE]
