  2. Just a comment from someone who has been knocked out of places a few times two of which were by 1/100 th of a pound.- Put the fish immediately on ice or a livewell and head for the weight station if you think it is a money fish. They do lose weight soon after dying especially if they dehydrate and after they poop or spit up bait etc and it can make all the difference sometimes. I had an additional unsettling episode at last year's Canandaigua Lake Trout Derby. I caught my derby winning fish at about 6 AM and the weigh station didn't open until 8 AM sowe were stuck keeping it on ice and waiting  until the guy came and opened the weigh station and the guy couldn't understand why I might be a bit uptight about it[emoji38] You also may not want them real lively and flopping around on the scale either as the weight measurement may be inaccurate (been there too).

    Ive been bumped out of spots in the seneca derby many of times and the canandaigua one once. I wondered if it did make a difference that i waited a litttle bit instead of picking up and running in immediatly

  3. I have been fishing trout tournaments for a while now. I have had Some success in placing in tournaments and a whole bunch of near misses. I have always tried to keep the fish alive as long as possible and if im hitting fish i keep fishing. When i get to a point where the bite slows or dies i usually will run in and weigh the fish. Of course at some of these points the trout has died. With some of these situations ive had fish weigh a bit less then when i weighed them after first being caught. #1 I was wondering whats everyones take on leaving your spot running the fish in immediatly after being caught or wait till your morning trip is over. #2 any information on how much or how fast fish may loose weight if it does die. #3. Whats the best way to keep a fish to avoid any or minimal weightloss over time untill you can get to a tournament scale

  4. Was just wondering if anyone has used the Diabolical Meat Rigs..... also what their reviews were on them before i order up a couple. What colors and if not these cut bait heads which ones you would recomend and color. Going to try stepping up meat game this year as not much success with it last year.

     

    Thanks for the input in advance

  5. I was lucky enough to hear the horror stories before placing an order with him. So i cant really say I've personally lost anything but seems lots of guys i talked to have, i hope they see this post. I work for the court system in ny and idk if they can have him arrested as from what i hear these were agreements made with people he never followed through on..... nothing criminal really. (unless theres more details i haven't heard of) but im sure people can take him to small claims court to take action. Depending on the amount of people and amount of $ he has boned people out of maybe a class action suit against him may be the way to go, due to it being people from multiple people over multiple states. Either way .....shady business from this guy. Good luck to everyone.
