No. There are probably at least 50, maybe closer to 100, OTW weigh stations, and as far as I know, none of them would have the slightest interest in opening a fish. They're local bait and tackle shops trying to make a living, and their time is pretty valuable to them. They weigh the fish, have the angler sign the slip, and send the slips in once or twice a week, depending on the shop. There's no one central OTW operated weigh station, like there is for the MV Derby. The OTW runs from Maine to NJ.
