Sure don't want to open Pandora's Box here.....BUT.....
IT BOGGLES MY MIND WHY SOMEONE WOULD DO THIS!!!

http://www.wired2fish.com/cheater-caught-at-bfl-on-wylie-over-weekend/

I don't know, Rob? I think of all of the teams in METRO and can't think of any team that would go to this length to win but reading this story you just never know who would make a horrible decision like this. I've heard of waving small metal detectors over the fish just to make sure everything is on the up and up.

This is not meant to offend anyone but I read this article and it made me furious. So I vent.

Thoughts....

Ian, I can't believe anyone

Permalink Submitted by Bstandiford on Fri, 06/28/2013 - 15:24.

Ian, I can't believe anyone in our club would resort to these lowly deeds. I do think it is good when cheaters get caught and it is publicized. These are the things that give our sport a bad rap. We all have to keep our eyes and ears open and not stick our heads in the sand. I know I have mentioned this before but one of the best things about the Metro is that competitors are willing to help each other and that forms a stronger bond of the club. On a lighter note I think someone is stuffing my bass with styrofoam LOL.

I don't get it at all.

I don't get it at all. Especially on a club level like our tournaments as to why someone would cheat. Sure, the money is nice but it is not enough to make a career out of bass fishing. To me it is about the social interaction and the competiveness and it is just fun!

I feel confident that we have

Permalink Submitted by wmarchant on Tue, 07/02/2013 - 07:24.

I am very confident that we have an honest group of anglers in MRA. If I didn't feel that way, I wouldn't be a member. I am happy that the FLW cheater was caught. In my opinion, this was a criminal act and should be punished as such. It is clearly fraud. Thanks for publishing the link Ian.
See you all on the water.
