Would it make sense to change winning criteria to total length of fish rather than weight?

It will never end till tournaments stop people cheat even when there's no tournament either there over the limit cheating or they bs you about how big this monster fish was and the lie grows every year it's the one upper types.

So long as you have tournaments, you will have cheaters. It's all about the bragging rights and money. It's no longer a sporting event, but rather a money event.  It's time we enjoy the sport and take the money out of it. Give the fish a brake.

Aim has been doing it for years. Photo of fish on bump board, they have preweights  set based off of length of fish.

Could definitely see it; however, I'd think it would require digitally calibrated and verifiable measurements.
