Seems like a LOT of people are cheats these days. I wonder how many other tournaments these clowns pulled this stunt..

other coaches were cheating for my sons 3rd grade baseball tournament. You let the left take God out of our society and schools, and now here we are folks.

#1: "Seems like a LOT of people are cheats these days."

Where is the joy in that? Someone must be a real retard if they get pleasure out of cheating: "Hey, I cheated, but I won!" No you didn't win. Jeez.

A few years ago, a couple of geniuses went down to Florida and caught a couple of largemouth bass and then transported them alive to a bass fishing tournament being held in Oklahoma. (The fresh-water fish grow bigger the further south one gets, because it DOESN’T GET COLD THERE. /Sam Kinison voice.)

BIG prize money involved.

It took the wildlife biologist on hand about a minute to determine that “these fish are not from around here...”

Another example to tell your kids, “Don’t be that guy.”

Professional SPORTS fishermen which is mostly an oxymoron to begin with. If there is a lake with just one fish of a vanishing species, some professional SPORTS fishermen will go there and take it. Story was recounted in a long gone Sport fishing magazine from the 60s.

By Carl Hiaasen, Double Whammy, the Book, the best lure and the hilarious true fictional story of how to cheat in fishing tournaments, land development and murder.
A must read for serious laughers.

Cheat in a fishing tournament - Outrage.
Cheat in a Presidential election - No problemo.

Trump policies forced the fish to eat lead weights to survive.

Behold The Fisherman

He ariseth early and disturbeth the whole household

He maketh mighty preparations and fareth forth full of hope.

He returneth late smelling of strong drink, and the truth is not in him.

Stupidly greedy.
Probably been getting away with this for years.
Since they were never previously caught they felt secure in upping their advantage to the point of becoming obvious.
Since it is clear fraud and significant money I agree there should be prosecution and restitution.
Also strike their names from any record books.

A relative of mine tried his hand at professional bass fishing many years ago. From his descriptions, sounded to me like everyone cheats to some degree.

I would never lie like that.

Here is a Walleye I caught in Mille Lacs near Garrison, Minnesota.
I would like to thank the people of the town for mounting one of my smaller fish I caught that day
