Another angler and fisherman caught cheating with a sea bass stolen from a local aquarium? You have got to be kidding, but this is the true story of the events that happened in a local bass fishing tournament outside of the USA. You can’t make these things up, but the story is hilarious yet at the same time sad. Let’s talk about it.

BREAKING NEWS!!
What an idiot! How, just how do people come up with this stuff.
If you ain't cheatin you ain't tryin!

I don't think there is reason to cheat. Very lame punishment. But I sure wouldn't be doing all that for just $800.
That's crazy
Crazy stuff. Amazing what people will do.
…and he ended up killing the fish. What a douche.
I dislike people like this
Quite a story there Steve. Broke into his ex employer, steal a fish, and gets a slap on the wrist. Obviously the punishment doesn't fit the crime.

Dang, I'm gonna hit BPS tonight after closing.
He's not 'competitive' he's GREEDY.
And probably a lousy fisherman and that's why he has to cheat.
That is wild! What is the odds of 2nd place recognizing the fish.
Incredible. Humans are horrible people.
Hey, Steve. This is getting unreal.
I guess the Brits said "Hold my Guiness"
Nothing comes close to Mike Long raising bass in his garage aquarium, then fiberglassing secret livewells into his bass boat and bringing the homegrown fish to the tournament scales.
That guy is the worst of the worst.
Bringing this story up to 2025, here is my thought or two. 1. As money gets bigger, more and more people will be tempted to cheat. 2. Professional fishing leagues need officials in every boat. 3. Professional fishing leagues need smaller fields to accomplish need #2. MLF and BASS both seem to be heading in this direction, with BASS being slightly slower.
All that effort for 1 fish
what a bozo
Old news my man
That's nuts! The Sea bass was living the good life in the aquarium…What a bonehead! The penalties were far too light imo.
I loathe cheaters. I loathe even more "sportsman" who do not take care of their catch or in this case the fish he illegally captured. He got off easy? You can literally get thrown in jail and have your assets frozen for so called "hate speech" in that country. Stealing property and being cruel to an animal gets a small fine? I sincerely hope Karma is watching this a-hole.
Lame punishment. Stealing a fish to then injure it and sell it… for a tourney win!!?? That’s just… odd. What a maroon!!
