There has been lots of discussion about using the Weakapaug Tackle Shop as the only weighin station. I was on the committee but we met last winter and I cannot for the life of me remember why we didn't have Wildwood or someone else.
I also am an advocate of a 24 hour weigh in. Doesn't seem like such a great inconvenience to stay open all night. I'm certain there would be sales of eels and tackle made.
I had someone call me yesterday and suggest that we have several tackle shops as weigh in site. With the proliferation of cell phones a code system could be set up so the Tackle shops have a special code and could call in a verified weight of a fish. It could later be certified or whatever. Also since this is almost 2007, how about using the computer? Take a picture at the tackle shop, upload it with the weight and, again with a special code to prevent fraud, send it to the primary weigh in spot.
Hopefully I will be back in the surf next year and fish this most worthy cause.
