Sabotaged two Russian boats on last day - few fish died - in result second place.
Just for information - maybe it helps you prevent some "troubles" in future on FIPS (http://www.fips-ed.com/index_eng.php) tournaments ...

Yes, "unpleasant" situation for the fishing sport and every fisherman in general.
FIPS rejected two complaints under various silly reasons, the video found inconclusive.
Money from sponsors were more important than sports for FIPS (IMO).

But all the same guys took second place in the competition despite the loss and the fact that the bass is not usual in Russia ....

I am glad that a few teams in support of our guys refused to attend the formal evening after the competition (Latvia and Croatia). Others supported the moral - no one was indifferent.
Italian guys who have worked with a team organized an alternative party, they just were themselves shocked by what is happening ...

From what I understand, someone put dish detergent (?) or some other cleaner in the livewells?

Not alla the Italians are alike.

But in this case , shame on us.

I agree with you.

And there weren't any Euros as a prize.

Only for the glory.
