That is a question of ethics. Cheaters always cheat. It is not only a matter of ethics for the fisherman but also with regards to the weigh station for holding the slip and swapping it out. You speak of this happening like you know for sure. If you know of this for a fact, call them out. Tell OTW and tell us who!
There's an easy way to stop that. Either you don't allow an official weigh-in station that's also sponsoring a club to weigh its own members' fish, or you sequentially number the weigh-in slips and make the station account for all of the "missing" slips

In other words, 3 copies of every weigh-in slip, sequentially numbered. One slip to the angler, one to OTW and the weigh-in station keeps the originals. The station has to send in the originals at the end, and they're compared to the slips received by OTW.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
