Sobbering weigh-in TNT
The TNT Extended season for 11/15/09 was held on Dukes Bridge and the West Lakes chain of lakes....... The winning weight was impressive for a tough day of fishing for the rest of the field. But more impressive for the day was the fisherman that weighed his fish that was big enough to win 2nd place honors and a paycheck but refused to let the weigh-master count it because it was a foul hooked fish, he stated he only wanted to see what it weighed and with that, released the fish...... That shows the integrity of the type fishermen we have fishing the TNT Tournament and as Director my hat comes off to John Grimm ....... John gain alot of respect of fishermen today.

Snagging Fish
It is illegal to snag fish from public waters in Indiana, including the Ohio River. Foul-hooked fish (fish not caught in the mouth) must be released to the water and not kept. Snagging is the practice of dragging or jerking a hook (or hooks), baited or unbaited, through the water with the intention of snagging a fish on contact.
