Oh, yeah. A live fish you almost certainly caught that day during the tournament. A dead one? That could be some monster you caught two days ago and kept on ice.

Day two of the tournament, something shifted.

How did Chase and Jake do it? Again?

And would it ever run out? Not anytime soon, Chase and Jake left Rossford with a check for $10,000. And this is a twist. They're fish. This detail is important. At most tournaments, everyone donates their fish to a local soup kitchen or food pantry. No one wants good walleye to go to waste. The Rossford Roundup donated fish to Toledo's Helping Hands of St. Louis.

Definitely weird. But there was another weird thing, too. On the first day of the roundup, after their boat was inspected and their fish were counted in the live well, Chase and Jake took a wrong turn on their way in.

One, I've stayed at that hotel. There are no cooking facilities, nothing with which one could properly prepare a fish. Two, smuggling three extra fish under your boat is wildly against the rules.

And scene. Chase and Jake having those extra walleye, and then Chase and Jake winning? Not a good look. So a few days after the roundup, someone gave that dash cam video to the tournament director, who gave it to Mayor Neal, who gave it to Police Chief Todd.

At first blush, that might seem a bit overzealous, police investigating a fishing rules violation. But take a step back. Teams pay $500 a boat to enter. Corporations put their brands and their goods and their money behind it. Thousands of dollars are on the line.

It was thoroughly investigated. But violating a tournament rule is not the same as breaking the law. And no one had any evidence of that. Water under the bridge, so to speak.

That's a lot of pressure for the little city of Rossford.
