As the weigh master for the Jack and Jill tourney I will tell ya'll there was not a single fish that measured in the slot for redfish or trout that had any evidence of being tampered with. So we had no cheaters or DQ's. There was one trout that could possably have been guestionable, but it measured 21" and not a legal fish for the slot weight. This fish was guestionable by my judgement only and was disreguarded once the fish did'nt fit in the slot length, cause if you were gonna trim you would,nt trim it an inch to long.

Appreciate the clarification. Hope to be able to fish the next one.

Nothing was said here about the Jack and Jill.
JnJ was not the only tournament this weekend or last.
Day 2 & we're waiting.......
