Here's the link for the rules..
Not really sure what ur question is..
They do have to be weighed at a tackle shop that is listed as a tourney weigh station for the team points an individual honors/prizes.I they require a length as well as weight.An there is a form to fill out an sign.Nothing like the inquisition that u go thru to list a IGFA candidate.There are many weigh shops in each state an this yr will bring more on board, they are also listed on the site..They have a new catch an release format that is for the pins only.Which is good for some. Not sure I give much merit to a fish that does not hit the scale though..
