5355, Man caught cheating in Bass Tournament Posted by xcellentfx, Tue Aug-20-02 12:14 PM
Danny Engleking of Brookston, Indiana, won $300 at the Tippecanoe Valley Angler's Tournament, but he was later fined $10,000 for theft after authorities learned that he had cheated.
Engleking was caught on videotape loading five bass into his livewell from an underwater cage along the shoreline of Lake Shafer.
Authorities set up the video camera, acting on a tip from a bystander who had noticed the underwater cage before the tournament began.
