I have seen a cheater get caught at one of the old Crappiethon tourneys at Reelfoot one year. They they failed the voice stress test over the phone, but they still paid them because the legal fees would have been outrageous to fight it, and a polygraph doesn't hold water in court, but they permanently terminated the teams membership for future events. That's been 30+ years ago tho.

The fish they weighed didn't have hook marks in their lips, and the fish looked like they had net marks on them. That's back when it was legal to net crappie commercially on Reelfoot.
