Seems like I might have heard this one before ....

They angled for a $28,000 payout. After viral video, 2 fishermen were charged (indicted for those of you in Rio Linda) with cheating.

Sounds like “The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County”, except the frog was fed buckshot by a competitor so it would lose.

A bunch of years ago a winning angler was busted for putting weights in his fish. I'm surprised the tournament circuit never implemented procedures such as using metal detectors on all fish to hopefully deter the competitors from this kind of cheating.

With that being said, when there is a will, there is a way.

Hopefully these guys will be ostracized and banned from the sport. Maybe even sued....
