Walleye cheaters
GWP:
How many private lawsuits will follow? Some of the second place finishers lost a bunch.

It was a boat they “won” by cheating. Very soft sentence IMO.

:yeah: The boat was from a previous deal to and if they can take that back I would think they could also do that for the winning of other cash and prizes.
Who knows but with as much as they won probably doing the same shady stuff as all the other guys were saying in the videos. It’s crazy light sentences.

I think the difference with the boat vs other gear is that they used the boat in commission of the crime. If they won a bunch of rods, reels, tackle, a trolling motor, depth finders, etc. that were at home in the garage they can't really go after that without proof that those were ill gotten.
