Why would you think fishing is any different than everyday life. Lots of people cheating out there in every aspect of life. Hell I cheated at monopoly last nite with my 7 year old daughter but I spilled the beans right after as I couldn't stand the guilt. If the winner had to be given a lie detector then I would probably never enter again, not that anyone would give a crap if I didn't enter.. Isn't the whole idea of this type of thing to be good clean honest fun and not life and death, cut throat. Hell I like to win but cheating at fishing just doesn't seem to be worth it. Now monopoly that's a whole different ball game.

cheaters never prosper, and
losers NEVER win!!

old addage that still rings true for iffin they CHEAT
to win, have they sincerely WON anything???

and Fish MOJO has a sneaky waaaay of catching up to folks.
it's a shame that there is an element of anglers out there that will
attempt to WIN at all costs ~~even at the sake of their once Good Name.

i have nothing against lie detectors if the powers that be deem them necessary.
while it does seem invasive, if you have nothing to hide,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,then why not?

between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Cheating....

I am 100% in favor of a Lie detector test given to the winner of a tourney.

Whats to prevent someone stuffing frozen Mackeral into a big striped bass to make it weigh more?
