They are working on removing dams currently, so I don't see many being built any time soon. All the lakes are dropping, we haven't had any s...

Re: The price of cheating in tourneys...

Mike Hart was another cheater that got caught in the US Open putting lead weights in the belly of bass.
His fish would sink and some would be dead when he weighed them, they cut open a dead fish and it had
