If its belly up and not breathing its not considered live. If it is looking ill and doesn't swim off after being revived you don't get the bonus. Weight master will determine. All rulings are final

Doesn't make any since, if it's alive it's alive it should be like major bass tournaments u get 30 sec for the fish to move it's gills. Who says a trout that swims off is in any better condition than one that still breathing belly up?

Look man, its weight masters choice I'm just saying how I think it will work considering I ran this tournamentast year and am on committee again.

And I don't know about the 30 second rule I don't let my fish get to that point
