They needed to beat 16.89 total pounds to claim Team of the Year honors and $30,000 in various prizes. People get murdered for $50.

Wait, so now Dominion is rigging fishing tourneys?
To: Steely Tom
As an avid recreational angler these clowns should be banned from ever competing in any fishing tournament for the rest of their lives.

Which is why bass tournaments require live catches at weigh in....makes cheating that much more difficult.

There was a similar cheating attempt at the Destin Fishing Rodeo several years back.
The cheaters tried to bring in a previously frozen fish that they had caught months before.......
Now officials use a special meter that tests the fish flesh for firmness.
Previously froze fish is not as firm as fresh.................

With the way they overstuffed their fish with lead weights, you'd almost think that they
wanted to get caught.
They can't be stupid enough to think that fish weighing twice their normal weight wouldn't be noticed...

"The walleye that swim in the cold, murky depths of Lake Erie are the waters’ apex predator..." The muskellunge community takes exception with that remark.
To: Red Badger
I’m not much into fishing. A fishing judge should be able to eyeball the size of a fish and know about how much the fish should weigh. Fish do not take steroids and work out. When size vs. weight is way out of proportion, investigation should begin. These guys should have been caught a long time ago.
To: Red Badger
Fraudsters Runyan and Cominsky are the “Biden and Harris” of the fishing tournament world.
The fish stuffed with lead weights are the equivalent of voting machines stuffed with 80 million votes.
