Well I think it is simple, the $40 one is giving away Free Van Stalls and the other is asking for $2500 - you figure it out

In all seriousness, I dunno. I used to play competitive darts. I was not good enough to play for a living but in my best year I made some money for the good. I like to compete. But, when you are standing at the line throwing three darts and you step back and your competitor goes to the line and gets three darts, it is damned hard to cheat. With a fishing tournament, especially a high $$ tourney. Some people DO cheat and others rightly or wrongly state that others cheated.

With fishing, short of putting an official into every boat to make sure the rules are absolutely adhered to there is little to guarantee that no cheating has taken place.

Now I do not mean to imply that OTW or FLW would condone cheating nor do imply that they would not be able to root out cheating but I fear it could happen as cheating does occur in fishing tourneys - not often certainly, but sadly it does happen.

Sadly the cheating or the accusations of cheating marr the "honor" of competing.

Is the ASA still even a factor??
