Cleveland fishermen admit to cheating in walleye tournament.

Two amateur fishermen pleaded guilty to cheating and unlawful possession of wild animals in a Cleveland walleye fishing tournament scandal. They agreed to a three-year suspension of their fishing licenses and forfeited a $100,000 boat. Prosecutors dropped felony charges of attempted theft and possession of criminal tools. The men face up to one year in prison or county jail, but prosecutors recommended six months of probation. The $28,000 grand prize represented a significant amount of money to other anglers, many of whom worked blue-collar jobs.
