It's sad when winning a fishing tournament is more important than your reputation. I would rather loose every tournament I fish in than cheat and win. Just my two cents.

I agree with you guys, I can't believe someone would cheat. I have fished tournaments on lake cumberland since I was 5 yearold with my dad and I love fishing tournaments and I love the competition part of it. I run a division of the usa bassin here on cumberland and I would love to know who there name is so I can keep my eyes out. That really takes the fun out of it when you here this crap going on.

It's sad guys but I have believed for a very long time this goes on way more than people want to think. Whenever money is involved there are going to be people do the wrong thing.
This world is full and I mean full of low life scumbags. People who cheat are the same thing as thieves that steal. If you catch them ban them from tournaments the rest of their life and let every guy in the parking lot bust him in the mouth at least once.

All posts accusing someone of cheating will be deleted unless you post your name, address, phone number at the bottom of the post, which will be verified. Be aware that you can be sued for making public accusations without proof. I certainly do not condone cheating in any form..but this site will not tolerate someone's reputation being dragged thru the mud until they have been charged and convicted of a crime.

What does my name, address, and phone number have to do with this guy cheating? You must be a liberal. I would hate to be afraid to hurt someones feelings by not being politically correct. Someone needed to beat his butt. No one in the crowd that would have stoned him to death would have been sued for liable, and you are afraid this site will be held responsible. Makes me ashamed to be affiliated with this site. What a joke!!!

Was there an article in any media about this? I would like to know the name of this guy myself.

THEN LEAVE.
Those have been the rules forever.............
If you're going to drag someone, ANYONE through the mud........cheater or NOT, you should be required to IDENTIFY who you are....PERIOD.
Sitting behind a keyboard and slamming or slandering someone is just that SLANDER. You legitimize your post by putting your Name and Contact info at the bottom of the post.
If I said so and so Marina on Whatever Lake was a piece of garbage because they did "bla, bla, bla" to my boat.........and left it at that.........I'm leaving myself and this site open to potential liability issues.
Dave's post above has nothing to do with politics.........Rather, it is a legal issue.
Personally, With regards to the cheating.........It is Disgusting, and those involved should serve jail time.

If you are going to drop blame on a man for accusations that you yourself can or can't verify then you should be held responsible for YOUR actions, and I think if you stone a man to death? my friend.... someone surely would be held responsible. The "team" as I understand it has done a very despicable act that any tx fisher finds irreprehensible and should be deemed done in the tournament fishing industry.... period,
and, Dave is very literal and plain speaking - he said if you are going to name and accuse someone "post your info" as so if there are grounds for slander you are man enough to stand up for what you are saying, not that the site was being held responsible YOU YOURSELF. It's the rules and always have been, as well as speaking ill of this site and or it's moderators.
