Party Boat pool "irregularity"?

I've followed this thread for days before posting and from what I read, you believe your fish was bigger than another, but the other fish beat yours in the pool. There are no FACTS, other than your opinion, to support this. Instead of addressing it immediately, you wait weeks and post your gripes here, which causes others to pile on and speculate and wonder what boat would do such a horrible thing, even though there is NO PROOF that anything inappropriate occurred. You are also now boycotting a boat that you were otherwise happy with, because you lost a pool where you think your fish looked bigger than another (again, no proof that your fish actually weighed more).

I have probably weighed a thousand or more pools in my days working deck and countless times the fish that looked bigger did not weigh more and lost. It happens. I'm not so naive to think that shenanigans never happen, but you have provided no evidence other than "my fish looked bigger" to show that you were cheated. I do respect your decision to not name the boat because there are some sheep here who would follow blindly in your boycott, hurting someone's business when they probably did nothing wrong.
