There’s another thread where Keith Poche’s DQ in the Toledo Bend Bassmaster Open was/is being discussed.   I’m not trying to start another thread on subject but wanted to take a poll to see where folks stand on the issue.

      I cannot possibly have an opinion either way.  The reason being. I was not present when the alleged infraction occurred, was not part of the tournament committee that reviewed the infraction, and have no first hand knowledge of what transpired.  I can watch a thousand You Tube Videos, from other people that have limited to no first hand knowledge, but like a trail, unless I am on the Jury I try my best not to form an opinion.  I will say I hope all involved learned from what ever mistakes were made, and try their best to always improve the public image of the sport.

     Forever fighting over the disqualification, will not help anyone or the sport.   It may increase viewership on some videos, but so will footage of giant bass hitting poppers.  I for one would like to see more giant bass hitting poppers on video and less arguing.

I believe it's simply attention seeking behavior.  He didn't have a snowballs chance in the tournament, even with fishing out of tournament waters.  He's got way more views in his antics than any fish he's every caught.
