Don’t say fishing is boring because these guys were ready to riot.

Major drama in the pro fishing tournament world where multiple time winners were caught stuffing their keepers with lead weighs and other fish filets @StoolOutdoors pic.twitter.com/2cTxKQJwya

There hasn’t been much written on this scandal, but according to Reddit (so take this information with a grain of salt), the team who was caught cheating won over $300k in tournament prize money last season.

Y’all know I like fishing, well…this pisses me off!

Meet Jake Runyan and Chase Cominsky, AKA big cheaters.

They recently were caught cheating in the last tournament of the year of a major walleye fishing tournament trail.

They were even going to be crowned team of the year. pic.twitter.com/Bw7hf96q4z

I’m not sure what team of the year brings, but people are pissed. I wonder if they claim innocence and blame it on ringworm or bad advice from a nutritionist.

Regardless, I doubt these guys will show their faces at any tournament soon. Let’s also not gloss over the fact that while the one guy was being swarmed, it appears his partner hightailed it out of there because he was nowhere to be seen.
