Ebi, it is fast. Fish are not carried all day in live wells. Heaviest five fish on card count. I DO know that the general public likes the idea of that many fish being returned to the water. Varies on the size of tourney boundries.
All weigh boats are volunteers but recruited by tournament directors.
About a million - have you ever seen how big Ft. Tourney boats come to weigh boats Steve. Depends on how far they want to travel to find a weigh boat. Please answer that for me Bobber Dave. Once caught and measured, most fish aren't going to bite again for awhile.
