My question is Apple app for Weighing Fish
We should be able to use one cell phone in boat . Use face time to record our catch let the fish go right after you catch it . To many fish are being caught off the beds and hauled 20 miles back to weigh in we lose the spawn eggs when this happens . The app should only allow taking a picture of the fish one time you take a picture of the fish .
I understand your concern Douglas. A lot of states protect the spawn by not allowing tournaments during the spawning season. My opinion is this-On the busiest of fishing days, around 5% of a population of fish are caught. That leaves most fish untouched to continue their spawn. I have seen studies that show fish returning exactly to where they were caught after being weighed in.
Our fisheries management over the years in addition to catch and release practices have lead to bass catches to be at their best. Record catches are being reported all over the country and Canada. As a fishing community we are doing an amazing job with bass.
