This morning me and Dave "what time is it" V went out to catch a few LM, all in all a good few hours out we boated and released 8 nice bass in preperation for this Saturdays team tourney. Including a nice 4+ pound bass that crushed a buzzbait right before sunlight. That fish has a dead catfish hanging out of it's mouth. Dave pulled the catfish out and it was close to a pound in it's half digested state.

Question: During a tourney if the fish is placed in the livewell and doesn't spit up the catfish would it be included with the weight at weigh in? Or would it be taken out? Should the dead fish be removed prior to putting it in the livewell? Just wondering
