Being used is defined as having the bait/lure in the water, whether or not the Angler is holding the rod. e) The first Angler at a location has the right of way; other Anglers should stay at least 50 feet away for safety and courtesy.

However, it may not be broken, snapped, or cut apart and then reassembled at any point between the two ends. A crack that does not separate the measuring board into pieces and does not affect the measuring board’s accuracy may be repaired and reinforced for use. Violation will result in denial of photo. j) Each Angler must have a mobile phone with camera or a digital camera with memory card and download cable to submit digital photographs to the Tourney-X® app. k) Grippers (e.g., Fish Grip, Boga-Grip) may be used for landing bass during Event competition, but grippers must not remain attached to the fish in photos. l) If a Angler breaks their line while setting the hook or retrieving a fish, they are allowed to make an attempt with the rod being used or by hand to secure the line and land the fish to be counted as legal...
