FM Online fishing contest?

[vook]

Please forgive me if this already exists... I think it would be a good idea to have a yearly fishing contest that all FM members could participate in online.

I invision having 3 places for each selected fish category... How would this work you ask? Well, all you would need is a camera and a tape measure. Length would have to be the standard because weight would be too hard to document.

So, take a picture of your fish with a tape measure next to it displaying it's length and in a "natural" setting.

To enter the contest you would have to register for each category and have a tag (from FM) with the species name and year printed on it. The tag would have to be original so it could not be duplicated. I've seen this done in other forums and it seems to be popular! Any lake, any state... Thoughts???

A number of forums do on and off secret words or like competitions throughout the year.

The species specific forums I mean. Unless you like the word subforum better.
