Put the tape measure and fish nose against your jet sled. Throw a flat piece of wood in the sled. Use a flat tackle box. It doesn't have to be a bumper board just needs to be bumped against something flat. Will make judging the fish easier

Why would i want to be like saxmatt.... last time i checked he finished 2nd two years in a row lol

Since the deadline to enter is closing in...if you gave each participant a unique random 4 digit number instead of a 'token' to display in the fish pic that would allow people to sign up later without being able to cheat. You wouldn't receive your unique random number until you paid up and then that number (printed or written on a piece of paper) would take the place of the usual 'token' and be mandatory in all pictures.

It would also eliminate people forgetting their token when going fishing as they could just write their unique number on a scrap piece of paper or something.

Just a thought.

Tell me I'm a butthole if i am missing something here, but is Chrisper's suggestion allowing anyone to get in this contest anytime they want, or will there be a dead line?

I have a deadline of January 9th 12am. But even if there wasn't a deadline, they don't get there 4 digit number till they pay. I will give everyone there own personal 4 digit number December 31st or when they pay up till the dead line. They can catch as many contest winning fish as they want before they pay but no way to take a picture with a ruler having their 4 digit number if they don't know their four digit number will be.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Looks like we have some colder weather heading this way the week following the New Year! Hopefully it's enough to lock everything up! Let's see what happens! On that note......................
WHO's IN???

C'mon guys! This is a contest where all participants have a chance to win! Don't be bashful! Go to the bank and get that crispy 20 dollar bill and send it over to Delaware River! What do you have to lose? Who doesn't love a little extra pocket change for catching a big fish? Let's do this girls!!!
