you hit it on the head with this statement as a "younger" angler bruoght into the game by older anglers I feel a need to keep some things the way they are RESPECT THE PAST learn from those who came before us. that being said I always carry a scale and only weigh afew fish that may be hard to guess their wieght.if its not #'s then it is a schoolie and a schoolie is a schoolie.
