    Elite Angler DQ'd From The Last Open

    Anyone got the skinny on who it was? Apparently an Elite Series Angler was disqualified for unsportsmanlike behavior.

    Supposedly one angler was fishing for a bed fish. Couldnt catch it and left. The Elite guy pulls up tried to catch it also and can't, so he goes all over the bed with the trolling motor to blow it out. The if I can't catch it no one will approach

    How did they find out? Now I don’t know many of the rules and I wouldn’t do this. But what rule did he break ?

    I looked. They haven't updated it yet or I just missed it.

    An angler protested him.

    Might just be holding until they have a chance to look I to it and allow the angler to appeal if he did indeed get DQd.

    Thats what I figure. He did appeal it. Kinda sounds like he might have already lost it though.

    That schtick is past well done. I just feel like they should say the name if they are gonna report on it instead of this high school social media nonsense. If they can't say tge name then don't report on it.

    Not revealing the name right off gets them more clicks and keeps the people coming back to check for info. Social media....it's a sad state of affairs.

    Vague posts/comments are the most annoying part of social media.

    I agree. If you're gonna call someone out call em out.


    So many people on social media know an unamed pro that says this person cheats, or they've heard it from all their pro friends that this happened. Reveal your source if you're gonna say something, man up.

    I have not looked again at the results, but I don't remember there being too many Elite's in the tournament.
