Texas bass tournament cheater gets jail time!

[craigdritchie]

I just read that some dude who got caught stuffing a lead weight down the throat of a bass he weighed in to a Texas bass tournament got sentenced to 15 days in jail, five years probation, a $3,000 fine and suspension of his fishing license.

 

Turns out this bozo stuffed a one pound lead weight into his fish, which promptly sank to the bottom of the "lunker tank" where it lay on its side and was obviously having a hard time righting itself in the water. So the organizers scooped it out and found the weight.

 

You can read the newspaper story on it here.

 

Amazingly, he still swears he "wasn't cheating" when he stuffed the lead weight down his fish's gullet.

 

What a buffoon. They're going to love him in prison.
