Craig,
I don't doubt the 28 length at all, I mean it's less than a 1/16" short, and I'd accept the witness statement as well, but I think we have the rules set up to say, "What the pictures show is what we score" This puts the burden on the fisherman to verify the photos were good before you release the fish, and I'm terrible at doing that myself but I think this is how we stay consistent in our scoring and don't get into the gray area of what we accept for one we don't for another... I'm not too strict on scoring, so I can be swayed by a public outcry, but I'm just trying to keep a method and stick with it the best I can... Hope everyone is okay with this... Thanks Jeff
