Yall want to see some cheating? Just head over to the kayak page and read the thread about Lake Decker.... Are you even sure that cutting a fish in half and using it to add length to a fish is against the rules? It can't be that big of a deal if only 4 game wardens were waiting to arrest you. The only time law enforcement cares about fishing tournament rules is if one of those rules also happens to be a state/federal law.

Based on what I saw.. he was violating the following rule:
Competitors may not shift a majority of their weight outside the boat and onto a dock or other object outside the boat for the purpose of landing a bass or accessing a fishing spot. I didn't see him land a fish from the dock or gain access to the spot from the dock

I live on Grand and have done the same thing many times, along w countless others.. Some dock owners will come unhinged if you touch their dam dock..Most don't care. One dockowner told me I was trespassing if I touch his cables..
As far as Wheeler...dont care...whatever.

IT'S ok to put one foot on the dock and the other in your boat Not if its my dock and I saw him doing that! Why, what's it hurting Nothing really... but for one, its My dock, not his.... number 2.. every fisherman should know not to step foot on someone elses dock before you get permission... period! I live on Fork and had a situation where 2 guys in a boat decided to pull in my dock to get out of the rain, which I have no problem with at all but they took it too far when they used my boat lift then started walking around my dock... needless to say, they wont do that again

I didn't see him land a fish from the dock or gain access to the spot from the dock Completely agree. The shifting of the weight is not an infraction. He was not landing a bass or gaining access to a fishing spot that he didnt already have access to.
