I'm waiting for one of them to come on here and try to claim they didn't have a dead fish. It miraculously came back to life. My guess is they won't have video of that. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/04/full-52768-92961-6405c79b_5986_4c16_9937_77b5acc63581.png) How big a boy are ya?

Where does the line start to call them cheaters to their face? I figure it’s gonna be a long one.

I don't think most these kids know what a Rolodex is.

They definitely did something against the rules. Did they cheat? BC rules say you get a 1 lb penalty for bringing in a dead fish. Did they cull with a 6 lb or heavier fish to replace the 7 lb fish? That would be cheating no doubt. I think they broke a rule and got penalized. Don't hang them yet. Hopefully they learned a valuable lesson. Time will tell. What? Not only did they knowingly do it, which is obvious from the whispering on the video. They purposely broke a state law. There is no doubt they blatantly cheated. Your attempt to find a grey area in the rules means you would try to do something shady yourself if you thought you could get away with it. I said they "definitely did something against the rules". I don't know these guys and really don't care. Im not defending them. I was merely trying to state that if they cheated to gain an advantage then I wasn't sure if they did by culling a dead 7 lb fish. The advantage would be if they culled a dead 7 lb fish with a heavier fish or one that was more than 6 lbs to offset the 1 lb penalty. Not trying to find a grey area in the rules. They broke a rule and got penalized. Im sure Chad has dealt with plenty of dishonest people over the years fishing Bass Champs and he knows how to handle the punishment without the guys on the TFF's help. Sorry I hit a nerve with some of you guys! No need for anyone to attack me personally. Why are you saying the dead fish was 7 pounds?

I don’t understand something, if the fish was alive and they didn’t break any rules than what did they admit to Bass Champs and why did they get DQ’d after that conversation?

Well there's that, but more over I would think Crankin' Craig's natural response to Rooster's whisper would be a resounding "Oh it ain't dead!" or " No no, it's doing better with some C&R " or some natural reply other that what we saw which was more along the lines of "uhhhh huuhhh" as to confirm Rooster's concern about the deceased bass. not that I am a detective, but I am not buying Crankin's explanation above for a second.

Actualy he said "yeah I know, I know." Now they want people to believe it was alive. Lmao

If they had a valid reason that could not be verified, I am sure they would have let them take a polygraph. They still use them don't they? My guess is under questioning they left no doubt.

Not to mention, his defense in the message is no better. His defense is literally "my partner just thought it was dead so he INTENDED to cheat, but since it wasn't actually dead, we didn't actually cheat." [censored] is hilarious. Sign me up for the line.
