They only pay Skeeter bonus. Phoenix pays it directly for that trail.

On that day splitting it was what I would have done

If I only had one keeper all day and it was an over I would be fighting for the chance to split the money. Had I caught 5 unders might had been a different story. Regardless the weather sucked and I�m sure the fishing sucked for both teams so splitting the money makes since to me.

Same.

since the weather was really bad I'd go with the decision they made.

Very tough day for most teams. Win it pays 20k, second 5k. Split it paid 12.5k. They probably made a sound decision. For me, it would depend on what part of the lake i'd been fishing and if I had the 5 fish limit or the over. 1 hour isn't much time if i was fishing the North end of the East arm all day. If I was fishing mid lake i'd probably have rolled the dice. I'm sure all that played into the decision for the team with the limit .
