After the bad press that got generated from the Triton Owners Tournament and the apparent bass kill just the week previous on Kentucky Lake related to that event (see this BassFan story), it didn't surprise me to see a final 'Live Blog' post this morning over on the Bassmaster BASSfest tourney coverage page announcing their safe release from this past week's Elite Series competition. I don't believe B.A.S.S. posts number of bass alive vs. dead any more, but a quick look at the numbers showed approx. 1401 bass weighed over the 4 days on Kentucky, which would ballpark them in the 96% live release range for this event (+/- 3% depending on actual number).
