This team later weighed in a won the tournament with a fish weighing 4.8 in their bag. KY Fish and wildlife were notified and the men were identified. I just heard that the prosecution declined to file charges. The basis for this is that while they might have received fish from a 3rd party there was no proof that they actually weighed those same fish. The team refused the polygraph test that they had previous agreed to by registering in the tournament. The prosecutor could have at least presented it to the grand jury …I would hope that by refusing the polygraph , they were disqualified as the winners . — Ive done my share of being a tournament director , in events that paid from near nothing ( club stuff ) , to a couple of grand to win ( bass-o-thon ) , and believe you me , if anyone gets caught cheating theyre DONE fishing any events in the area !!!!!
