Sucker fishing event in Michigan disqualifies contending fish during weigh-in
An angler at the Omer Suckerfest was caught cheating by stuffing his fish with lead weights, according to event organizers.
Every spring, thousands of suckers swim inland from Lake Huron up Michigan rivers to spawn. Taking advantage of this migration, the Omer Suckerfest hosts anglers from all over Michigan in a 10-day event to catch the heaviest sucker.
