Greedy dummies...

Most fishermen have likely seen a big fish spit up a stomach-full of smaller fish as it's being brought towards the boat. I don't have any interest in competitive fishing...an oxymoron, IMHO...but whenever I see that I wonder how a competitive angler would feel watching this happen, knowing it could cost him the competition. I always assumed that some of those guys would cheat by stuffing a few small fish into the big fish's gut before bringing it to the weigh-in...but, jeez, fillets??? And when they mentioned lead weights, my first thought was a couple small fishing sinkers; but check out those weights they used!

The more people I meet...the more I love my dog...

Natural for anyone to be disgusted. I agree. Me too. Yet...

The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.

You who are without sin, throw your first stone at her.

***BTW there are cheaters and liers in every sport and in every walk and nook of life. I've done it and ashamed. The big question is where do you go from here? Up, down, or keep level?
