I fully agree with the catch, measure, weigh, photograph and release. Keep a digital scale in the boat and report the weight on this board.
Support net fishermen and buy your fish at Kroger.

Guys the drive is about a mile. IF the fish is put in a cooler with plenty of water you can make the trip. IT would be much less stress than I see put on fish at weigh ins, where they are in bags of just enough water to hold them. Guys standing in line for 20 to 30 minutes at the weigh in.. you can be up to the tackle store and back in that time just about and the fish is in more water. Add in some of that magic stuff you guys put in your livewells and the fish may just be better off waiting in the cooler getting a good dose of oxygen to lower the lactic acid and antibiotics than if he was weighed and released in a tournament.
The first fish was released with out any problems.
