1. His Basstrix scam he pulled a few years ago where he had the balls to tell us fisherman he was doing us a favor by forcing us to buy matching product and then personally attacking me for calling him on it.

2. After purchasing a Rod off of his website last year, I had to call these folks over and over to be finally told 1.5 months later that the rod was backordered. I then had to call repeatably to get my refund which took 2 more weeks to arrive. Here is the kicker, when I finally got my refund THE CHECK BOUNCED!!! Another bunch of phone calls later and some lame excuse that they accidently wrote the check from the wrong account the refund was finally resolved.

3. Finally last year about 3 weeks after WCB post thier schedule, out comes the AC schedule that put's every one of thier events on top of WCB events. There really is no problem with this other then him coming on here and screaming up and down that this was not done on purpose. Please did he really think we were that stupid??

There is much more and I won't even go into the lame excuses he gave for years as to why BassWest (or should I say BassEast as it is now) was months and months late. How about the tackle shop fiasco in Clearlake.

Karma is a bitch and it seems to me that this unethical CHEATER is getting what he deserved.

Never having fished an AC tournament, I have no idea how they handle this type of issue.

I can tell you that, during the ABA championship last year, when Andy and I rolled into the marina late and weren't sure how the penalty was handled Andy took the fish to the scales. They did not weigh the fish, nor did we get a weigh slip for the day. Realizing that being late is different than having six fish, I'm still figuring that a DQ would be handled the same regardless of the reason? Perhaps AC handles things differently?

And if you were agreeing with me, why didn't you just say so instead of implying I don't follow rules, I was talking about changing "stupid rules"

Nothing anonymous here dude, everyone in here that knows me, knows my screen name, I've signed my name at the bottom of it before but nice try.
And I've never had an axe to grind with you Cooch.
I just disagree with you sometimes and voice my opinion, I know it's hard for you to except but you're not the last word on bass fishing my friend.

If my other thread is so dumb, lets see you get on it tell everyone you've never broke a rule in a tournament!

If it's so laughable Mike, why are ya still posting and reading it? Seriously, a Disqualification occurred in an event. In light of what happened at the US Open, although a different issue where a guy got caught cheating red handed, the angling community has the right here to inquire. Much to my surprise, we got more than we bargined for as various parties began to jump in and explain their experiences, along with what the organization did as a final result. It has also brought up discussion regarding DFG fish limit regulations, as well as how some anglers percieve those rules by the orgs interact. Therefor, this moderator believes there's valuable content in all of that. Quite honestly, there's plenty of information in this thread about this incident, for the readers to make up their own minds, on what they choose to believe is right or not. That's why it's still here, regardless of what you or I believe, be it indifferent or not.

Please feel free to explain where in my original post, I accused or implimented that you do not follow the rules? My post plainly states I too think there are dumb rules, But no matter how dumb you or I think those rules are, if they are written, we must follow them.
2ndsuks wrote:Nothing anonymous here dude, everyone in here that knows me, knows my screen name, I've signed my name at the bottom of it before but nice try.
Well, I didn't until I looked to see that ya have used yer wife's e-mail as yer contact here. Last I looked, there were over 8800 registered Users here, and the nonregistered could be greater than that, my bet is, less than .25%(222) know how Mike Tobey is, much less associate that with yer screen name. Far from everyone in here as stated.

Well Mike, with statements like the highlighted above, and you telling me to git off my high horse, leads me and many more, not to believe this statement. I believe you can search thru many years of postings in here on my name, and find this to be an inaccurate statement about me. It's perfectly fine to disagree, but persanal statements like that, typically stem from something other than two people agreeing to disagree.
2ndsuks wrote:If my other thread is so dumb, lets see you get on it tell everyone you've never broke a rule in a tournament!
Because that myfriend, would be very dumb by me and I have no reason to nor the ignorance to post in that thread and get caughht in a lie. I have been DQ, three times actually. Once for casting into a no fishing area, I misinterpreted the rule, my boat was 20 feet away and made a 40 foot cast while sitting next to the SS Minnow at Big Break. I also once DQ'd my self, as I was ticketed for not stopping soon enough entering a 5 mph zone. yet I can admit, in my own egotistical competative way, I've made that mistake and NOT gotten caught too. And if'n ya read Roger Nelson's previous post here, he told everyone about our disqualification at the ABA championship last year up at Clearlake.

It's all good by me brother, I'm outa here and off to go chase some full moon evening stripers out west! Toodle loooooo!

Time's are tough right now but they will get better. I for one dont understand why you guy's dont put this much effort into forming your own Circuit. If you just try it I think you might be suprised but yet it's pretty clear that will never happen.

You have to many choices and you are reluctent to let someone make a profit off of you. Your not going to grow at your current mindset and you need to change.

It will work if you work together I assure you.

I agree with that Cooch... I think Mark made a mistake (it happens), and it was right for him to be DQ'd (even tho the rule should only impose a penalty and not a DQ)... But isn't there another rule being overlooked here? one that pitchin1 touched on...

Long Nguyen should have been DQ'd as well (involuntarily from the looks of it)... I don't care if Long claims he had witnesses.. He illegally boarded another vessel during the tournament. And he blatantly admits it. Being a tattle tale is fine... But illegally boarding Mark's boat without permission was illegal and should result in an automatic DQ. According to the rules, the Donger should have submitted a protest along with $50.00 to the TD.

Not trying to yanky your wanky Long, but if I caught you on my boat I would mop the dock with yer sorry butt. Devil's advocate dude... How does anyone know you didn't plant the 6th fish and had your buddies bear false witness? The only people other than Mark and co-angler allowed on Marks boat were staff. You tainted the crime scene dude.


If I'm fishing a tourney and I catch a keeper striper or salmon late in the day, I'll throw it in one of the live wells until the tourney is over. After the tourney, I kill and clean the fish and take it home and pop it on the grill. So yeah, someone might hear a fish flopping in one of my live wells. But that doesn't give them the right to illegally board my vessel and rifle through the hatches. If I caught them in the act of it, I would knock the friggin' snot out of them. Think about that next time you get yer panties in a bunch.

Ok Cooch, perhaps I misunderstood the intent of your first comment, I had a call from a buddy saying you took a shot at me, maybe I got a little wound up about it but if say you were agreeing with me I'll take you at your word.

Go ahead and look back through the forum, I haven't said a word to you for a couple of years until you quoted me.

And my apologies for thinking you guys left the thread up to trash Mark Mendez, my bad! :roll:

Read a little more carefully, I said, everyone in here that knows me, knows my screen name. Hey if 222 people in here know me that's way more than I thought but I'm not looking for fame.

Lets just agree to disagree.

Since this is the second time it's come up I'd like you to point out anywhere in the USAC Pro Am rules that states this is a rule infraction. It's not there. It's not a rule. You use the word illegal twice and I'm trying to figure out how so. A California law perhaps? Never heard of it.

What's interesting is I can't find anything in the rules that says any thing about the "6th" fish in the boat it just addresses what you actually bring to the scales, here's the rule:

15) SCORING FISH: a tournament boat (Pro and Am) may weigh-in five (5) fish per day, a minimum of 13 inches in length, unless state or lake limits are greater, measured on a flat board with mouth closed and tail compressed. Any team weighing-in a fish shorter than the legal tournament length will be assessed a one-1 lb. penalty plus the loss of the short fish. Any angler bringing more than five (5) fish to the scales will be disqualified. A penalty of .20 lbs. per dead fish will be deducted from the total weight. A penalty of 1.00 lbs per short fish will be deducted from the total weight with the short fish not being counted in the total weight. The weighmaster and/or tournament director will be the sole judge on making the decision as to whether or not a fish is considered as dead or short. Only Largemouth, Smallmouth and Spotted Bass will be scored. Any team returning to the checkpoint late will be disqualified for that day and forfeit their catch. The official measuring board of U.S. Angler's Choice is "The Judge" by Lakeborne Tackle.

Am I missing something?

16) CULLING FISH: It is the responsibility of each Pro/Am to keep no more than a maximum of five (5) fish in a live well. If more than five fish are present in the live well during the event you will be subject to disqualification. No culling is allowed in the host marina. No culling of dead fish is allowed.

Same mindset as the folks a Clear Lake who threaten to call the sheriff if you rest your hand on one of their dock pilings...

Personally, I wouldn't recommend "beating the snot" out of anyone for merely stepping in your boat, unless you have the next 90 days off from work... :twisted:

WOW,

Is this positive exposure for the sport we claim to love so much?

You aren’t kidding about exposure. I have been fishing all of my life and was thinking of doing tournaments. Now I don’t know I am pretty turned off by the whole thing. I don’t know what I think is worse that someone actually had to question if the owner of a tournament trail was cheating or that it seems half the people on this thread are ok with it if he was. Or maybe it’s worse that some of you think that the person that called him out is wrong for doing so. So is fishing the don’t ask don’t tell sport? Cause it’s all good as long as you don’t get caught. Seriously can someone explain I just want to know what I am in for. Hmm maybe golf is better.

Big Rye, your concerns are right on and I believe many have the same questions that you do.

I say go for it. If anything this and other threads recently have done is really make it clear that if you do cheat and get caught you will be called on it publicly no matter who you are! Based on this would you want to be the next person caught??? I really believe these posts will make people think twice and three times before they do something stupid such as cheat.

Good Luck in whatever you decide.
