I agree. I don't fish on many party boats anymore but I have heard of shady things going on with sinkers and other random things stuffed in fish to win. I have even seen mates open the bellies of pool fish to show what's inside at times of disbelief before paying the winner. (probably the most extreme thing I've seen)

Every boat is different but you have the right to ask them to switch the sides the fish hang and hope the other fisherman is honest.
