I just got off the phone with a friend of mine who was telling me about some crazy mess that happened @ the Rock the Riviera Redfish Tournament in Texas on South Padre Island this past weekend. The leaders at the end of the day had some nice fish, and would have won a brand new Dargel boat, but someone must have smelled something fishy & their fish were inspected and found to have huge lead weights inside of them. I was told that the weights were 6 oz. lead balls, 1 in each fish. I can't confirm this & nothing has been posted on the TRS website about it as of yet. The police were called, and the tournament organizers said they were pressing charges for attempted theft.
I don't know the names of the folks that got busted but I'll post more info as it becomes available.
