"Big Bass Guru" Mike Long exposed as a fraud
Admittedly until yesterday I had never heard of Mike Long. He is known as the best big bass fisherman in the world and is from the San Diego area. I stumbled across an article about him and how he has tricked the bass world for decades. He has cheated his way to earning hundreds of thousands of dollars in bass tournaments in California and big bass championships. If you google Mike Long article, the article featured on SDFish.com will come up. It is a very long but fascinating article that exposes this man as a fraud. The stories range from snagging fish off beds, to hiding fish in his boat to weigh in tournaments, to using fish that other people caught to claim lake records for himself. It also talks about him transporting fish from one lake to another to claim lake records. If you have the time, I would highly suggest reading the article. I started reading it and couldn't stop and it took a while to read it all but it's fascinating.
