What A Crappie Thing To Do

Didn't learned a thing from the Walleye guys...


CNN —
Two fishermen who were accused of cheating during the Lake Erie Walleye Trail fishing tournament last September – after it was discovered their fish were stuffed with lead weights and fish fillets – will serve jail time for the crime, according to court documents from a Thursday sentencing hearing.

As part of an agreement reached in March, Jacob Runyan and Chase Comnisky pleaded guilty to charges of cheating and of unlawful ownership of wild animals. Additional charges of attempted grand theft and possessing criminal tools were dropped as part of the plea deal.

Runyan and Cominsky will each serve 10 days in jail and six months’ probation, according to court documents. They are required to forfeit their boat and trailer to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife.
