A Houston area man has been indicted by the Wood County grand jury for cheating during a fishing tournament at Lake Fork. David Neal Pricket of Katy was charged with Fraud in a Fishing Tournament with Prize Greater than $10,000. Thats a third degree felony. http://easttexasradio.com/man-indicted-for-cheating-at-fishing-tournament/

looks like the indictment was around 10/15 so it would be within a few weeks of that I guess. I guess that could've been McDonalds..

I have a chapter in my new book The Journey of an Old Big Bass Fisherman dedicated to a gang of bass tournament cheaters that stole around a million dollars in bass tournaments in the 70s &80s before most of them were caught. One was from Texas and was working with law enforcement to testify against the others. His name was Davis and he was murdered 2 weeks before the trial. I personally disqualified one of them in April 1980. He won the battle of the lakes big bass tournament 3 weeks later (60,000 dollars). He blindsided me that night with a sucker punch! I had a maxillary facial blowout as a result. He was murdered in prison a few years after they were convicted. You can read all about it in my new book. See my post: My 2 cents from an old Big Bass Fisherman here on TTF.

It was in the fall last year on Sunday the last hour when he tried to do it. I am not going to say the name but it was one of the two big bass tournaments that was there last fall.
