Nobody gets convicted on Suspicions......If a guy wants to cheat he's gonna cheat....whether this rule is here or not.

Do you really think that there would be a different perception if a Known Boat "High-Liner" registered for Shore Now as opposed to before.....Same percepetion either way.

Do you think this rule change makes an honest guy all of a sudden say "Cool, now I can cheat." Nope....he'll still play by the rules.

Again....Rules are for Honest People.

it's true, cheaters will be cheaters.... maybe OTW should launch an extensive investigation into all fish over 50 before awarding the truck!
they could get the guys from Law and Order Criminal Intent

You're right. They should also make it catch and release.

I see your point here, but yes, I think more people are prone to cheat if they are registered in both categories. If you had no intention of cheating when you registered in both shore and boat at the beginning, then your team really needed to the shore multiplier to beat team S-B, you have an open window here to cheat now and call a boat fish a shore fish! Before, you wouldn't have had that choice if you were honest at the beginning and registered in the boat division.
