Is anyone concerned at all about the Fish Care for the Classic.. Am I over thinking this? We have rising water temps, fish already stressed out from post spawn, ride in a live well all day then drive 1 hr to FT Worth wait in line to weigh in.. After Weigh in these fish get to go for another drive for 1 hr back to the lake.. I'm sure BASS has the best resources as possible for fish care but it seems like there will be a greater death rate than normal..

Not concerned at all. BASS has been doing this a long time and do a great job at it. They coordinate locally for additional resources. This ain't a Saturday working man's event where just getting guys to follow basic fish care efforts can be difficult. It's gonna go just fine. They are good at it and will take good care of the fish.
Realistically with only 50 guys fishing for 2 days then only 25 guys fishing on Day 3 there will be less than 600 fish total weighed in. Probably a lot less than that.

So for the guys that haven't been to a classic. When it was on Grand lake it was over a hour back to Tulsa, when it was at Guntersville over a hour to weight in sight Lake Conroe over a hour to Houston. Bass knows what they are doing. Also the Anglers will not just be leaving on there own to head to Fort Worth they will more than likely have police escort like they have at other classics

With the policy escort it will be 49 minutes and 55 seconds to Ft. Worth!!
These fish will be "legal" fish as defined by TP&W laws. If a few die put them on ice and donate to a charity.

Does BASS ever report on Mortality Rate? I don't recall ever seeing how may total fish are caught and released?
