At first blush that seems terribly obvious. The problem is reality. Fish eat all sorts of things, and it's not that unusual to find old hooks/metal beads/etc. inside a fish's guts.
And also I think a big party of it is just that fishing tournaments to a large extent operate on the honor system. At least they used to 30 years ago when I used to enter them.
