We had to DQ a team in the Thursday night dog fight this past week 7/2/12. They had been spotted throwing the A/T rig during the dog fight. It was brought to our attention that it may had possibly been the 5 wire 5 bait rig. Our rules, are that you may use ONLY a 3 wire rig during our events. We approached and ask the team before they got their fish out of the live well. This was done so that it was understood no matter what they had for fish, it was not going to interfere with a possible DQ. When the team was questioned about throwing the A/T rig, they admitted to throwing the 5 wire 5 bait rig. They were DQ, and we explained this situation. Not sure if it was intentional or on purpose, but we have give them the benefit of the doubt, and they were invited back. After looking at their fish, they would probably finished 2nd in that event worth $70.00. Please make sure you know the law and our rules on this rig before you use it in one of our events. Our general rules are posted on the TVBC home page under the by-laws icon.
Thank you
