Something fishy is going on in competitive fishing. The would-be winners of a tournament were disqualified after fish were found stuffed with weights.
The would-be winners of almost $29,000 at an Ohio fishing tournament were disqualified on Friday after it was discovered their fish were stuffed with lead weights and fish filets.
"I thought, there's just no way," he said."I could also hear the crowd grumbling, like 'no way, there's no way.'" Runyan and his teammate, Chase Cominsky, were set to win a $28,760 prize, Fischer told CNN. The prize money at each tournament he hosts comes from the entry fee each angler pays to compete.
"As this is an open investigation, we have no further comment at this time," she wrote in an email to CNN.
