What makes it even worse is...does anyone believe this was his first time trying to cheat? The tournament directors obviously had their suspicions already. Absolutely disgusting behavior.
2.5lbs worth of lead weights..... He's obviously not good at cheating! 😂😂
I would never put weights in my fish but especially when stone cold Steve Austin is the director of the tournament
🤣 Right! I think the video cut off abruptly before he busted a couple beers over his head.😂
lol yes
Yea that would be bad lol !
😂😂 MY GAWD, 😊STUNNER! STUNNER!!!!
@@adamschronk3620😂😂😂😂 thanks Adam. 😂😂😂😂😂 🍺
Sadly it's not limited to big tournaments. I found a barrel sunk in the lake when I snagged the rope throwing a crankbait. When we pulled the barrel up, there 3, 5 pound+ bass in it. We released the bass and reported it to the tournament director. Showed him the video of the entire incident
Oh my god. That's shady as shit!
Cheater used his FFS to find the rope and pull the barrel up.
@@dmrduke22 gotta give them points for creativity!
Throw the book at him. Cheating is bad enough. Stealing from others by cheating is bad enough but hurting the resources (fish) by abusing them by stuffing them is unforgiveable. Jail Time.
Catch, Photograph and release, or referees. The ONLY way forward!
Steve Austin was explaining the rules like he is cutting a promo. 😂
😂😂😂😂 Hell Yeah!!!
And that’s the bottom line! (Breaking glass)
Cheater - "I didn't stuff lead in that fish!!"
Director - "What?"
If money is involved. Cheaters are there
Thats my take too.... 😕
Yep
Yup…
People like that should never be allowed to fish anywhere ever again there's no sense in someone doing something like that
Not just FFS and bed fishing, but the conduct of so many pro anglers arguing with locals as if they own the waters.
I Fished this event. The sealy outdoors crew did an amazing job handling the situation. Fact is money is the root of all evil. Its crazy how money can change a person especially a greedy person.
Money is not the root of all evil; rather, money is used for evil purposes by us who have evil in our hearts.
If y’all are quoting the Bible y’all all got it wrong.
Look it up.
$$$ alone does not make people evil.
The love of money is the root of evil, and its so sad that we live in a world like this
The love of money is the root of all evil. That reveals what’s going on in a persons heart.
I fished it also. I placed 5th in the 11 to 12 hour on Sunday.
Where money is involved you can expect Cheaters will be too!
Bass tournaments are kind of a joke these days. From entry fees, cheaters, shitty payouts and water camo sun shirts.
You know them two anglers that stuffed weights in the walleyes got off with just a slap on the wrists. If it were me being the judge in court, I would ban them two for life for holding a fishing license forever. And I would fine them thousands of dollars for doing a stupid, outrageous thing. There are many anglers who are honest and trustworthy out there, it just takes one or two bad apples to spoil the whole barrel. That being said, moving forward, there needs to be stricter guidelines and rules for competitive fishing tournaments in general, such as metal detectors or maybe an on-sight X-RAY machine. I really don't blame the people who break protocol and stoup to a precarious level, instead, I blame our soceity in general for putting up with bad-behavior. Look at our politicians and our C.E.O.'s of major corporations who get caught. With one who gets caught, how many more are doing it that hasent Been caught. In our soceity there is a lack of accountability. That's my take on it. Tell me what you think.
I agree and with lack of correct punishment it will never end regardless of what it pertains to.
Jail time, huge, fine, and lifetime ban
One of those idiots got busted again for poaching I believe…🤬
@@bruuuce78 WOW, they never learn, do they.
so you gonna blame everyone else but the offender? well you blaming yourself too then. What you gonna do about these offenders?
It’s just another case of wanting something and not willing to put in the effort to get it. Sad sad situation!!!
Should be banned from fishing for a minimum of 10 years, fined 5x the maximum prize, and charged with larceny , serving time in prison so that the perpetrator will have to think twice about ever trying such nonsense ever again.
in my area they pre fish and put the big fish they catch in a holding cage until the tournament day.tournaments need to be outlawed during spawning season for all fising tournaments
Guy was using FFS as well as stuffing lead. 🤣 What a surprise.
We had a local Chicagoland bass tournament angler busted for rigging a stringer of above average bass in his secret spot. Little did Mr Cheater know that an eagle eyed tugboat captain raised suspicion and video recorded it. The next move was like a Boss! He alerted the local conservation officer and the trap was set. The CO was able to obtain his own video evidence and the tugboat captain's. He was DQ'd, banned from future tournaments and is now facing legal action from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. As reported in the Chicago Sun Times. The quote "I don't do cheating and cheaters".
I’m almost to the point that ALL tournaments ( any species ) should be banned. Money 💰 is killing the sport and so is forward looking sonar.
One can dream. The boaters in the small tournaments around me are obnoxious. They think they can drive 20 ft past you on plane when you’re fishing because they are going to the big bad weigh in.
@Jon45678 Buy a spool of monel wire and attach it to a float within 20 ft of your boat. Let them unwind 200 yards of that on their prop as it comes to a halt. Just a catfish line. Chuckle chuckle.
This is right up there with the guy who weighed in a freezer burnt bass in Texas. Brilliant!
Sadly....the integrity of the sport is now gone.....😢
I read an article about the situation and it said he actually trimmed the tail of a fish so it fit in the slot limit. Not sure if that was it or if he stuffed weights as well. Either way he should be banned for life and made an example of. I hate cheaters!
Wow!!!! Maybe the walleye guys decided to start bass fishing?.. Lol Nah not funny! WTF is wrong with some people?!! Get good and fish legit!!! I fished local bass tourneys for years and only one time saw cheaters! Their was a boat that built a seperate livewell hidden on their boat and covered their livewell with towels. They got caught anyways and drummed out of the local tourneys for life!! Its not worth it!! Its very unsportsman like and as you said it adds another black eye to the sport of bass fishing!! Glad to hear they were caught!! Also makes you wonder how many guys fished that lake within the 90 day period??.. Strange rule but rules are rules and they need to be followed! Stay safe all. God bless!! Fish on!!!
Another one CAUGHT, many more are doing this crap and getting away with it!
No amount of money is worth your reputation.
This is America. Money matters more than reputation, life, happiness etc...
@@huntforagefish4730I agree with you, reputation doesn’t mean much anymore, instead it’s all about the bag
It's getting bad when a fishing tournament needs a metal detector as part of its qualifying fish. To many don't know Jesus.
Who is that?
@@stevefisher2553who are you?
@@crumbopulis the king
@@stevefisher2553 who is that?
If you get caught doing this, you should never be able to get a fishing license for the rest of your life.
Odd, the first thing that comes to MY mind in this situation (including the Walleye stunt) is it's nothing but a humiliation ritual so the fool can go up in degree(s). 🤫👌
Most people have no idea what you’re talking about.
@@Jon45678 Agreed, but in the same way someone had mentioned a symbol on a building to me and it piqued my interest and I paid more attention, my hope is it will do the same to another.
Plus it really makes Masons uncomfortable; if it's something to be so proud of, why hide it? (Rhetorical question)
Glad they arrested these sickos. What is wrong with people?
To be fair as a casual fisherman… you pro sports guys are definitely pulling a number on the sport
Walmart is making a KILLING on fluorescent casters though
It's so heartbreaking & aggravating hear that there are people behaving like this.
I am so happy to see you share how these men are addressing this issue this way.
My parents sold outdoor sporting equipment, motorcycles, boats, campers, etc... We supported many different teams for racing & on land ^ water. Sport fishing was in its infancy back then.
From events on our own teams, I know it was often the sponsors who caught their own team members cheating. In a sense we kept them honest by firing them publicly & demanding reimbursement for their equipment.
Sadly, If even one person on a team is cheating, it destroys the whole team & the sponsors too. That not only hurts the other fishermen, racers and events, but it will quickly destroy the livelihoods of the people who are employed by them. Every part of a team becomes tainted & it is incredibly destructive to everyone around them.
Unless the authorities really crackdown on cheaters, it'll just keep happening. Need the throw the book at cheaters, big fines, jail time and a permanent ban on any future events.
Closest I've ever gotten to weighting a fish was fighting a blue cat from a pier against a heavy current. It first weighed just over 25lb. But then a whole bunch of water came out of its mouth and it then weighed 22.5lb. I felt bad for that fish but it was delicious either way.
Spotlighting with FFS, stuffing weights in fish, poaching private property for deer…….its all the same to me.
And also if you dont hunt with a blindfold on!
@@cichlid43 ?
@@jackhand3429 Looking at what you're hunting is cheating!
Bass tournaments used to be based on integrity, but there’s not much of that going around anymore. Not worth the gamble these days!
So if you catch a fish on an 1/8oz shaky head and it’s gut hooked bad and you have to leave it in, do you weigh the fish and take an 1/8oz off? What’s the rule one something like that?
To help cut the cheating down. Put a weigh person in every boat then put the fish back in Lake. The person needs to be a certified official with a certified scale. Also have a live camera on board to
To many anglers in these tournaments, and the entry fees and pay outs make people do things they Normally don't do
He probably used FFS to catch them, too.
it should a life ban from all events. Its so pathetic.
The big bass bash will ruin LOZ ..this year it was on the weekend that all the bass were up on the beds. This years spawn is decimated for that lake.
This is absolutely ridiculous I thought they learned after last years lead debacle.
Obviously the punishment wasn't severe enough to send that message, maybe they'll get more serious with this guy...
Yes beded bass fishing on my home lake has messed up this lake so bad 700 boats cystic fibrosis, and the Bass cat tournament on Lake Norfork in the middle of the spawn has literally ruined this lake for Bass
The only thing that should be allowed… if you want to know the best,….ditch the technology!
How did he think , (or didn't) that he wouldn't get caught ?
Unbelievable.
Probably has been cheating for years and getting away with it. He felt emboldened.
There was a guy caught cheating in some of our local stuff here in lake Barkley and Kentucky lake. The wardens were told and they watched him found his cage room the fish clipped the fins of the fish. Idk what else took place just know I've not seen him fishing tournaments the last 5 to 10 yrs
This is sickening to me. This is a prime example of money is more important than cheating or killing fish. Sad what this sport is coming to.
Keep up the good work Randy! Keep fight to keep the super electronics out of tournaments ! It is supposed to be skill not about BIG MONEY AND WIN AT ANY COST WITH BIG MONEY PRODUCT SPONSERS !
Liars, cheats, thieves and anti-social behaviors are more prevalent than ever. I don't see that changing. More and more, people see others as "less than". That's why few use turn signals, more people run red lights, cut you off by pulling out in front of you on the road, pass stopped school buses & on and on. If they get away with those things, they feel validated in their actions.
Some guy from Indiana was caught pulling fish from a stringer, during a tournament last week as well. I believe he was fishing a tournament in Illinois, just don't have the info in front of me.
Pro fishing is a train wreck glad to have money in a pot with guys you can trust
Problem about cheaters is that "time" is their friend. Once the furror subsides and folks forget the name/s or they move, no one knows who they were? Need a blacklist?
What a POS. Now how many bass have died by his hands because of him doing this in other tournaments.
Stop all tournaments. They serve no purpose at all. Name one positive on tournament angling? There isn’t one
it would be a very simple thing for a tournament organization to pass all bags of fish thru a metal detector, but they really don't care!
I once caught a striper and when I brought it home to clean it there was a rock the size of my fist in it's gut. Lol swear to god. Glad I'm not a tourney guy, no one would believe me. 😂
fished a lot of tournaments...we always talked about those that cheat...my buddy Pete used to say "if youre a really good angler...ya dont need to cheat"
Every bass tourny aiut there has cheaters! My suggestion.....stop fishing tournys, its a 💯 complete way of money!!!!! I now have a kayak for my wife and i & we hit all the creeks and rivers around and have a blast, catching all kinds of fish!
We have the same problem in politics. To much money involved and people want to lie and cheat to win or stay in power.
Randy...check out cal sag bass anglers...more cheating last week
Yep, got caught by a barge worker the day before a tournament tying bass off. Caught red handed coming back the next morning. DNR police met them at the weigh in with the video evidence.
It’s a lack of respect for the sport. All these amateur tours should be shut down. Between the mortality rate of the fish the risky boating and the lack of respect from anglers, they aren’t doing anyone any good.
ALL tournament fishing should be banned everywhere.
That should be jail time, a huge fine and lifetime ban from any hunting or fishing
The person maybe putting lead in fish that he could do that. Thinking how forward radar is cheating .how would you like to be out swimming As a bass and cameras can locate you anywhere you. Is that really fishing? The person who loaded the bass needs the book
It's like when the wife makes you load life 360 on your phone!!
I'm far from a boyscout but I don't even cheat myself playing golf
Fishing and fish are a gift from our creator. When we abuse that gift by turning it into a contest for money, self pride, fame, and other worldly reasons, we have already crossed the line.
Yes Mother Nature!
a guy did it at the sucker festival in omer michigan.
Forgive me for my lack of knowledge but I don't understand, why are people doing this if they check for it? Doesn't make sense. Do they sometimes check and sometimes not or what? Seems silly, I would check every single fish.
Big money involved, so they take the risk. This is the biggest amateur tournament in the country
Easy solution: Garrett makes a handheld pinpointer used in metal detecting that costs about $100 that would instantly detect any metal in a bass without hurting it.
@@brian9670 right but if they check this every single time it's hard to imagine anyone would do it knowing 100% they are getting caught. So I'm guessing sometimes if there is no suspicion they must not cut the fish open and check? Or maybe just started doing it more recently since the big scandal a year or so ago? Taking a risk is one thing but knowing no matter what you're going to get caught would be a big deterrent.
WOW! Sport of bass fishing is getting like the rest of sports fishing, basketball, baseball, football they're all dirty no good🤔🤔
You have the cutest little boy. Off the subject by the way. ❤️
Until the fines are increased and prison is enforced, this will continue to happen,
You got that right!👍
Are the forward radar frowned upon? Or straight up against the rules. Or do the rules change depending on the particular tournament/event?
Oh hell, yeah!!! That’s the bottom line!
Cheating been going on since tournaments began. Took along time to do something about it.
Just tried the link in your description. It says it's not in service, but I can get on without your link. May want to check on that.
Why did the clip cut?
those darn round bill baseball hat wearers strike again! cheatin phonies, all of em, and hulk hogan called form 1991, he wants his moustache back
As if Livescope isn't CHEATING enough.... Damn!
Unbelievable...I'm not sure if it's greed or what it could be.. I guess ill never understand why someone would do something like this....just stupid..
How do you alter the length of a fish?
How many cheaters are out there? Just saw a fishermen's post apologizing for tying bass to a dock before their tournament from Grumpy Ole Men Tournament. Looks like this guy got called out during their tournament day.
the cheaters were lucky the authorities were called. the other competitors should have taken care of it themselves.
Can’t imagine cheating in a Bob Sealy tournament. That guy is (Bob) is legit. He is the standard of character and honesty.
??? Who edited that inserted clip at the end? Feel like I missed something.
At this rate fishing tournament is a joke to the fishing industry; this why i don't watch fishing tournament
Thanks for making us aware.
How do we know that someone was not fishing for this bass previously using live bait and lead weight sinkers and the bass simply gobbled up several casts with such lead weight sinkers and the rigs were lost to that fish?
Does he truly believe he is Stone Cold Steve Austin? Bro, calm down. Fishing is so dramatic.
I definitely do not condone cheating, but show me the proof how exactly do they come to know the fish has a lead weights in it are they scanning it with a wand is that now protocol to scan every fish with a wand? Also, the fact that the fish was held because somebody recognized a particular fish man Toledo Bend is a gigantic reservoir. How does one recognize a particular fish? What is it tagged? What is it in coded? Did it have a special clipping on one of its fins? I would like to know the details if you’re going to continue to spread this news, give us details show us proof not just hearsay, you wonder why I want to know because this is very good information to have so that I can spot it myself.
I just don’t get it, the money they are cheating for is easily made with a decent job of any kind, I’m still trying to figure out if it’s a pride thing or just desperation
We got weights in fish!!!!! I say it every time something is shady. It’s fun and you should have fun too.
Both criminal and civil prosecution apply and should be followed through.
We need ethical anglers that don't stuff weights. ANGLERS LIKE Mike Long!!!!
Bwahahaha!🤣🤣🤣
And that is the Short of it - Long!!!
Man that dude is a bad apple- rumors about him for years. Good day when that SDFish article came out. Long looked at Mike Hart and said "Hold my beer"
Nothing is done to anyone who cheats. They all talk a big game, yet they hand them a slap on the wrist.
The two guys that cheated on the walleye tournament lost their boat which they had won and had to spend a weekend in jail as well as some fines. Nothing compares to their winnings.
Hell. They were going to
Let a known cheater fish the Classic years ago and finally denied him the opportunity, but let him keep his winnings.
Probably goes on a bunch everywhere. Must be a whole level of suck to want to do that. Lot more fulfilling winning a few tourneys with hard earned practice and education.
Outlaw tournament, Fishing
Not real surprised. I'm sure stuff like this happens all the time across all levels of tournaments.
Cheating has been going on for a long time. These guys just got caught.
Cheating is lame. If I can't win for real I don't want the prize.
He is a thief, plain and simple. And there is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, that is lower than a thief. Send him to prison, the end.
They learned it from the Federal Reserve.
Do you wear your tinfoil hat to the weigh ins? HAHAHAHA! Everyone is laughing at you.🤣🤣🤣🤣 R E T A R D
@@huntforagefish4730 Do you get paid per tweet or by the hour. Are you a (((Media Matters worker)))?
