What do you think the truth is??!?

If there going to fish this tournament they should know they have to use the circle hooks and not risk a winning fish by cheating.

while on the subject, how many WM do you think are gaffed & boated for measurement during the OCWMO then tossed back overboard if they measure short? As a strong believer in not killing a billfish for any amount I have always believed that this occurs frequently under the current rules, sorry to say. I am not attempting to start any BS here nor accuse anyone in particuliar, but let's not kid ourselves that is a common occurance.

no need to gaff, slide alongside the boat and measure, once you got a hold of him hebecomes quite docile, besides a gaff hole looses weight!
