Deshka....I think most tourneys are well managed...usually they don't have them during a spawn...if they do
...I would expect them to verify the fish and immediately release them to return to their beds...I'm not a fan of tourneys during a spawn...however...tourneys in general are pretty safe since the fish are kept safe in a functional live well and released after weigh in...my only concern is pulling fish off a bed and driving them all over the lake and releasing them miles from their bed...bad news there.
