That is because people will kill a smaller fish hoping to find a bigger one as the day goes on. It not only is against tournament rules, but what a waste if they do get bigger one and dump the smaller fish. hence why I would say have a6-61/2 foot size limit for makos or 200lbs for all sharks. hand out weight to length tables at captains meeting and take away tag and release points for those missing weight by over 10% or 20lbs. The whole tag and release is BS too. Some people are definately calling in fish they never caught to keep up. No class. Should have to have photo evidence with time in shot. At least it would help even though they would figure out way to fudge that too.
