... I'm just telling you what the guy (Trip Weldon) said when Fish ask him how he found out that Ike was OB. Said an assistant had called him (and told him he thought Mike was OB), and then he called Ike. I thought all that happened after Mike was already at the weigh-in area and stopped fishing. The first call from Mike was while he was fishing. But I was not there, only saw it on TV. Ronnie http://fishing.about.com I agree, the TV made it look like Ike called to inquire about the OB area while fishing it, but Trip said he was alerted to the situation and he then called Ike. Ya got me as to what really happened. Maybe he (Trip) did call, missed him (or something) and then Ike called him back. :shrugs: I dunno. Didn't amount to anything anyway, a little extra something to talk about during the weigh-in and the "TV commerical" pauses during it I guess. All I know is that Michael took responsibility for the action though he did say on-stage that OB areas are typically marked and they weren't in this case. But he pretty much left it with an "I made a mistake" and put it on himself. I thought that was the right thing to do. I don't tourney fish, but IMO it's up to the anglers to know and stay within the rules, so kudos to Ike for taking his lumps and moving on with little fuss. |
