Born Hunter 17,956 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Seen that last week. Surprised they didn't get lynched. It'd be pretty easy to catch cheaters tbf, just keep records of fish weights and sizes and you'll spot trends of certain people having unrealistically heavy fish. Then spot check them in future comps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shovel leaner 7,650 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 The problem with stupid people is they think everyone else is stupid. I had a Saturday job on a market when I was a kid and I could tell the weight of fruit and veg before I put it on the scale. And if you are used to weighing fish you would have a good idea what weight to expect. So when the fish were 8lb !!!!!! over what was expected, is it any wonder questions were asked ? Like i said “ stupid “. A couple of dumb, greedy “mutha f@ckers” who are going to be looking at maybe paying back some of their previous prize money hopefully. And probably on the receiving end of a few good old fashioned American “ ass whooping’s “. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 32,206 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 It used to be eels inside of pole sections over here, I also used to make some tidy pocket money selling little roach and skimmers to match men, no morals no scruples and only interested in money look at all the shit they leave behind after a match, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they had just cut while they were ahead, then this wouldn’t have happened . But they were greedy , and ultimately stupid . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
