Title: FLW walleye tour
Post by: stackenem on January 07, 2007, 03:00:37 PM
Watching the FLW walleye tour this AM and noticed that during their weigh in a lot of the fish were belly up in the water weigh in tank. Do they release these or do they keep their fish?

I beleive they kep them, clean them, and donate the fillets to a local food bank.  I seem to remember seeing this at one of the Ohio eerie tourneys some time ago, but it may have been a competing PWT tour.
They had something like 6000 lbs of fish in a walk in cooler to be cleaned and distributed.

I do believe they release all the live fish.  And the dead fish get cleaned and donated.
