How do tournament weigh-ins affect bass survival compared to catch-and-release on the spot? In this episode of The Bass Hole Podcast, we break down real studies on bass mortality, reveal survival rates after weigh-ins vs immediate release, and look at why Major League Fishing (MLF) and kayak CPR tournaments are changing the future of competitive bass fishing.

If you’ve ever wondered whether weigh-ins hurt bass populations, or if spot-release formats really save more fish, this episode is for you.
