Really kind of a version of hole sitting. His brother C blocked the leader. When these tourneys come down to ounces if his brother catches just one that G would have caught then his brother wins.

Sucks for us the drama is over until next year! Now what are we to watch while at work? Guess a few Opens left but coverage sucks on those. I'm sure there will be plenty of drama videos to watch.

Chris J made this spot famous a couple of years ago. It's since become a community hole nick named "Bassmaster spot". The Rookies found it by watching previous tournaments. Chris had been there every day but couldn't get on his spot, I think it was a boat number deal but could be wrong. Gee had no other spots. Chris had several that he ran around too since Gee was camping on it.
I'm fine with how they worked out.

Gee should have told him to fish the Canadian side of the river and get the F outta here.

I'm fine with how they worked out. Not totally disagreeing with you but heres another perspective. Where does the sportsmanship rule come into play if the Johnstons worked together to screw Gee by doing what Chris did? I would think if that was the plan, and i do think thats what they planned, that there has to be a line drawn at some point. Is this that point, im not sure but they just dropped the bar real low and next season it will only keep getting worse

The Johnstons wouldn't be in the Elites it it wasn't for MLF and the Bass Pro Tour poaching all the anglers.
They were roster fillers. They are very good anglers, but still fillers.
