Need citation help?

When it comes to trophy fish, if there is a weight and length listed for a particular species; does the fish have to meet both criteria? Or is it one or the other. I caught a crappie that weighed enough but is an inch short? I caught a 14 inch crappie that weighs over two pounds. Which is over the trophy weight.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As Courage stated, it only has to meet one of the criteria. You can get a citation for the weight alone. The thing is that you it says it has to be on a calibrated scale. I usually take my weight citations to the store to make it official. If you did not, I believe you can still get the citation if you have a witness or photo.

Congrats bro!
