Aquatori, so your saying the other fish looks bigger than YOURS and you feel that fish should be re-benched before they even got to judging those fish? I feel they should if they haven't started yet. Just keeps everything fair for everybody in that size class.

I agree with Nancy, more likely you were there when your fish was benched, and know what size category your in. But to know that your fish is competing in a category where your fish IS at a better advantage because of size you should be honorable and let officials know. You want a trophy that bad just go buy one yourself for yourself.

Very honorable Frank and Nancy!
