On Randy Flower's facebook. Definitely appears he snagged a bed fish. What are your thoughts?

So did Jeff Sprague this year. Both tried to play it off. Both had cameras in boat. Both still likely them. Both should been DQ’d on that violation

Randy Flowers. It was laughable for a little while. Not as much anymore

I wasn’t there to see it in person and the video quality is bad. Hook could have been inside the mouth and the bait could have slid up the line. It’s weak claim at best.

When the bait slides up my line, the fish doesn't normally come to me tail first. The only other scenario possible is the line somehow wrapped around the tail.

Was Soukups tail hooked, I can’t see crud in the video. If it was tail hooked, then no excuse for sure.

If he kept the fish it's a problem, if he released it no problem. The video doesn't show what he does with the fish. Click bait?

According to those who watched the full video before he deleted it, he talked about how that fish was crucial to his limit.
