YES from day one just to stir it up .....Do you really think a derby who has a board with measurement and then weighed is going to cheat out say the 75 to 150 guys by saying the fish wasnt legal??. this whole thread is to put one fisherman against another nothing more, and should have never been allowed to even be posted....
Lol pot meet kettle. Stirring a pot and putting fishermen against one another lol. Nope but maybe take a look in the mirror yourself there Wolf. Shall I post up a link to all kinds of comments and threads you have tried to stir pots on and which result in multiple members fighting against one another whether it be fish politics, regs, etc.. Give me a break.
This thread was to have some fun and find out if there are real 20 lb 80cm fish out there. I'm sure as most others can see and are trying to catch one to win free money why wouldn't they. I could care less if one fisherman likes another.
As for derby's which one are you referring to? If that derby had the same rules I have in effect and practiced them and I speak with the person that weighed and gutted the fish, and I compare my calibrated scale to theirs and they are both the same then I would honor the $ payment. That is fine with me. But if it's the derby I'm thinking about I'm pretty sure they don't gut the fish after weighing but lets find out.
I don't enter derby's for a couple reasons first off I think it takes something away from the peacefulness of being out there fishing for the fun of it and for other reasons that I have experienced a couple times long ago with how derby's are ran and the rules that are in place to ensure ALL fishermen are honest.
That being said It's easy to see that there are fishermen on this forum that enjoy derbies and competition. So this is here for them to have yet another way to win a derby/competition.
So if you or others are so sure there are 20lb 80 cm Springs out there then go catch one and get some free $ while your at it. Ya that sure sounds like a conspiracy to me.
Let's get the thread back on track for those that want to be in this 20# derby. If you don't want to be or you don't agree with this thread then you need not be apart of it.
The rules are simple, clear and easy to comprehend. Good luck!!
