Pro Fishing Repeat champions accused of stuffing walleye with weights

Problems on the Ohio waterfront: Two fishermen have been accused of cheating to make their catch look heavier than it was...and the video evidence is overwhelming.

Chase Cominsky and Jake Runyon - both locals - were apparently caught stuffing their walleye with weights and other debris...things came to a head on Friday as their fish were weighed and then cut to expose the truth about Lake Erie.

As you can see, tournament officials have started removing those little metal balls from inside the fish that Cominsky and Runyon had considered - some say they're lead, but anyway ...they look like they've been blocked off for extra weight.

There are also slices of what some claim are fish fillets -- in other words, these guys would have cut off pieces of other fish and stuffed them inside as well, surreptitiously.< /p>

Some outlets are reporting that these two guys were actually favorites for this tournament - dubbed the Lake Erie Walleye Trail in Cleveland's Gordon Park - but that obviously came to a screeching halt when everyone got wind of it. what had happened.< /p>

You can hear the utter outrage from the people on the ground...they were yelling at these guys, demanding answers and even threatening to call the police. Runyon was asked on camera if he had something to say for himself, but he remained silent and just watched.

There are reports that the fisherman has won other competitions in and around the area - and now all the accolades...
