Whats the best way do do weigh ins when fishing from shore with 10-20 high schoolers? I started the club and need to find a way to do this efficently and make sure the bass are not harmed. I was thinking of doing a paper tournament where each kid has a ruler, measures the fish on the ruler and take a picture of it and include its length... any other ideas? I have a teacher who volunteered, but he wants to fish as well

i would have two or three scales spread out and each time a student catches a keeper bass weigh it immediately and keep records... that way you got an accurate wieght and the bass is able to be released quick and unharmed

yep i would also recommend getting a few scales and spreading them around if possible. if your fishing lakes and everyone is spread out over a few miles then have everyone get the same model of scale, it should be close enough for your use
