I posted about this kinda thing awhile back. A well known striper guide and smallmouth guide told me about it. This is dead on track to what he told me was going on. He also told me they were doing this heavy on Dale and that he had tried several times to turn them in. Don't know if this is the exact same fellas but it sure matches the MO to a Tee.

I hope they lay the hammer on them. When I posted alot of guys on here and laughed and said fellas couldn't catch that many smallmouth, well Huh, with livebait maybe they can.....................
