Good News Bad News - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

What I heard from an OTW staffer was that they were going to require him to submit to a polygraph exam. I'm guessing he decided to withdraw on his own. He is really concerned about the hit his reputation took---probably more concerned with that than with winning a new truck.

And as far as can be determined, he was never issued a citation for the violation. Which is what put OTW between a rock and a hard place.

I agree 100 percent.Said it all along.com or not he got his fish..I feel he was being unfairly scrutinized.

I liked your 1st response better

You charmer you

I think many people did care because of the tourney. The guy can catch fish is for sure.

Doesnt matter he caught large with a hook and line..........everyone wants to jump all over everyone else....jealousy and a sick need to see the guy tossed under the bus..until something happens to them...what comes around goes around, I would hate to have anyone here on my jury....seems most here love to see there fellow man "caught" or nailed or whatever..Mistakes happen people are human, what he did was no big deal. His fish should count.

what I said before was what I will say again, to many of you are wayyyyyyyyyy to wraped up in this tourney and so worried about what the "other" guys is doing.....Who the %$%$%$%$ cares........

Many people care Bill.... would you want to play poker with someone for money that you know cheats? The guy is an awesome fisherman but how he got to that level matters to many of us.

To each his own.

A place I will probably never step foot in, it is always good to see you team win. we don't have a meeting house so where ever the captain puts it is ok with me.

Bill - why is it that half the time when you see something you don't agree on you call it jealousy? You think people are jealous of Major?

The guy allegedly had 6 bass in his boat when he could legally have two - where is the jealousy?

"Mistakes happen people are human, what he did was no big deal. His fish should count."

How is having 6 fish in a boat a mistake? What he did is a big deal. If this is not true his fish should not count.

Doesn't work that way. Only the top 10 fish from each club count towards your point total. Our bottom two fish are 35 pounders. Two 40s are only going to add 10 or so points to our total.

We'd have to average close to 47 pounds among our top 10 fish to take the lead.
