Damn, had that happened at Barren in the 80's-90's, those dudes would have needed an ambulance.

Need to run metal detector over the fish at weigh in.

Exactly

Cut em open and remove all doubt.
Looks like the weigh in people could feel the weights inside the fish and I heard it was 8 pounds of lead balls.

Exactly

@bigbonner they had filets inside the fish I guess so they couldn’t feel the weights. 🤷‍♂️

Again, not sure how they aren’t being charged. I’m thinking at least Theft by Deception charges.

It wasn’t a little weight, I mean they went all in!!! Ive had my fish out ready to weigh and they pretend they don’t see me… drying out my fish. That made me mad enough to fight. This would have been a brawl.

It's all over Tiktok the past 24 hrs. I must have seen 40+ videos.

Their career is done

TikTok=Chinese spy


As far as the cheater goes….

Every cheater I ever saw in the westerns got a few holes in them….best I remember, never felt bad for the the cheater.

From the looks of their clothing, I wonder how many sponsors they had.
I bet they won't have anyone to sponsor them now.
Can you imagine going back to an actual job and having to face everyone and them knowing that you are a outright cheater.

When there's money involved someone will try to cheat!
Some people just can't help themselves their lives are nothing without it, like some people can't help but lie.
Just look at your everyday life close and you will be amazed at how many people you run into are trying to get one up on someone it's very sad, I don't think these guys life will ever be the same it's like the scarlet letter.

I see lawsuits coming.

We had a couple of guys banned from tournaments back then. Someone caught them sinking baskets of bass back in the standing timber.

It dont have to be for money. Look at how many poach a Buck just for BRAGGING RIGHTS.

 

[cedar creek]

how stupid can you be… like something boss Hogg would do to win a tournament lol,

 

[ribsplitter]

It's amazing what a few hundred dollars will do to someone. Most tournaments that I fish, I go into them knowing, I've got to beat the cheaters to win. Anyone who thinks it's uncommon is just lying to themselves.

 

[Redlined]

As long as there is competition for ANYTHING there will be people trying to game the system. Just look at the last presidential election 🙄

Makes you wonder how they justified it to themselves and slept at night.
I still don’t know how officials dont notice lead golfballs stuffed in fish. They had to have paid people off.
