Kenny, I've seen pictures where it looks legit, and pictures where it looked 50-ish, depending on the camera angle and how it was held. All I know it that there are multiple reports of it being weighed on a certified scale in front of a lot of people. I don't know the guy. I don't know your friends, and I don't post on or read the bass barn. I know you catch a lot of fish every year, and I know that I've looked at pictures, called BS, and was proven wrong before. The bottom line for me is, some guy is putting his business reputation on the line by attesting to and submitting weigh slips for this guy, and with the prizes that are at stake in the Striper Cup, falsifying those could be a felony in many states, and would be one in Massachusetts. I have to think that a tackle shop owner would be very reluctant to do that for me, not matter how good a friend I was or how much coin I dropped in there every year.
I'll try to give you a call tonight after dinner. If not then, tomorrow afternoon.
