Wow that is bad. Makes you wonder how often this happens without the person getting caught.

 

[LA man]

im glad he got BUSTED

 

[Baxter83]

It happens ALL THE TIME around here! That's why I don't care for tournament fishing unless it's with friends that I can trust. Too many greedy loser's out there.

I'm glad he got busted, but also glad he realized how crappy of a thing it was to do. Maybe the pecker head learned a lesson!

 

[tophat]

Sad for sure.

I think it was BSK or buckwild that said any time you make killing a contest you are asking for trouble.
I guess that goes along these lines as well.

Any time you have humans, money and competition (of any kind) you are asking for it.

Very very sad deal.

I bet he caught the fish in someone elses spot too.

 

[Gray Ghost]

Wow I hate that website. Talk about hard to read.

 

[Kirk]

You know something, that kind of person would cheat at anything they do, not just fishing. Cards, income tax, bingo, golf, tennis
and just about anything you can think of.

 

[RUGER]

Very true Kirk.

I imagine(more than imagine, but I'll leave it at there) that certain fishing shows feature the host catching fish that were caught be someone else earlier. Also hunting, if you can believe Will Primos' statement, "this aint' Hollywood!"
Ego and money is a two headed monster.

I truly believe I've been in tourneys were cheating has gone on. I can't prove it, but I believe it.

 

[Kirk]

Unfortunately, no matter how many rules, checks and balances you have in place to prevent cheating, someone will cheat. (or at least try to cheat) Apparently the tournament this guy cheated in allowed dead fish and just deducted weight as a penalty.


The easiest rule to enforce is a NO DEAD FISH rule. If it's dead at weigh in it can't be wieghed.

 

[Football Hunter]

glad he got caught too

 

[7mm08]

bet that goes on more in these local every week wildcat tourneys!

 

[tickweed]

Not the first time! Very Sad!

 

[Coach]

As a rule, I think all would agree, what goes around comes around. Taking a shortcut to accomplish anything seems to always have it's repercusions. I've fished two tourneys this year where the weights didn't add up but there is little that can be done.
