Highly publicized tournaments also raise awareness. People come to a competition or watch it on TV and they get to see how nifty sharks and other fish are. It may get them interested in conservation, or it could at least plant the seed in their minds that fish are out there, and that they're important. The spectacle of the tournaments probably interest alot of children in fishing or marine biology or some other fishy venture. They're great PR for fish. I think it would hurt aquatic life overall if tournaments were to be stopped.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.
