People have been cheating in fishing contests ever since there were fishing contests.

“Fishing” and “Contests” should be an oxymoron! Some things should just not be competitive, fishing is one of them!

Did you see the size of those lead weights they cut out of the fish? Anyone who has gone fishing knows how much they would weigh. Instead of padding the weight of the fish by ounces and getting away with it, they padded the weight by pounds and didn't get away with it. One even wonders if they didn't go down to a fish market and buy the fish.

Cheating! That's un-American, isn't it?

I was surprised to watch local fishermen about to weigh their fish. They all scooped up as much water as they could from a tank as they could to make them weigh more. Ridiculous.
