That's pretty presumptuous thinking that tourney fisherman catch that many fish in a lake. I believe raincheck's point is to continue catch & release, just not in the manner of dramatically increasing the risk of mortality by beating them around in your livewell during a days worth of fishing. Take a picture, let it go...I totally agree...
