Title: 'Mako Mania' NJ shark tournament winner in dispute"
Post by: njbob49 on July 20, 2018, 08:18:55 PM

I just saw this in the paper.  Looks like another tournament needs to have LAWYERS involved. 

For the more experienced out there, what is the proper procedure to measure the length of a Mako shark?

I would think how the fish is going to be measured would come up in the captains meeting or tournament rules
