lol this is still going strong... go look on all the pictures on facebook and instagram every company that has posted a picture of him with their products are getting blasted with some pretty crazy comments... even on of mike longs friends is asking people to pray for him.... pretty crazy how that video hasn't been used as evidence against him.

He�s more famous now than before all this came out.

Don't think much can be done unless there is video of him cheating in a tournament. The rest is just a guy snagging bass. Video is pretty recent too. No evidence of the last 20 years on video. He's just gonna have to fade away like Robby rose

To the people he fished with that didnt have the moral courage to say anything this is on them as much as anyone.
Protecting the field goes beyond being someones partner. As of now he hasnt been DQ�d for cheating as Jarrett said, he is just a snagger of bass.

I agree. The article was as much an indictment of the sources as it was Mike Long. It appears that most of them fished with him again even after they knew he'd cheated. And John Kerr has zero credibility. Scared for his son's safety yet moved in with Long when their house was in danger of burning. To boot, his son pulls a weasel move and goes after ML again while they're staying with him. ML sounds like a bad guy who probably deserves everything that's coming to him, but any of his accusers who cashed a check are every bit as guilty and have no business trashing him.

Funniest thing to me about this cover is the title underneath the ML one- "Fishing with Snakes"... SO APPROPIATE!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. The people who should have known, or did know, don�t look good in all of this either. Absurd from many angles.

snagger might be moving to Texas lol

That article on SDFish is wild... unfortunately by describing the methods that Mike used, I'm afraid it's gonna give other cheaters more ideas

Makes me wonder about another big bass legend from California who fishes "big swimbaits" in the clear lakes of San Diego County. By himself. And posts videos of himself releasing 65# stringers. Hmmm.

I was thinking those lakes are going to get hammered... I already know of one texan who travels there to fish a few of those lakes every year... now he wont be alone!

except he's got cast to catch on 95% of his videos....

This is a bad deal all around. The only winners are the current tournament fishermen. I had a total flashback to the Robbie Rose escapades. Long was very fortunate that polygraphs were hardly used. My big problem is with his partners that let him get away with the fish he caught on the rear of the boat. How on Gods green earth do you not catch what he was doing.

Let's do one thing here though. We do not have proof of others doing this.so lets leave any others out. There are some truly great fisherman that will never be looked at the same because of this. Let's take the high road and dont make accusations without proof

I listened to Bass Talk Live podcast the other day, Ken Duke was a guest. He was saying that in California, if you catch a big fish, the cheater mantra comes out instantly. He said those guys a cut throat brutal to each other.

Pretty good show if none of you guys have ever listened to it.

Hey Fouz,
Who�s that referring to? I know a lot of those guys, I�m just curious
