Vote #259

The following question was presented:

Well, the end of the holiday is here and it's time to start making my way back State side. To top off the fishing holiday (something I didn't know before I came), Sky Sports show the Fish O Mania competition on tv - a two day course fishing festival. In the team competition there was a little bit of controversy as Lee Edwards of Wales had a carp over 4 kilos disallowed as it caught the line of one of the other competitors whilst he was playing it. Do you think Lee's carp should have been disallowed or not?

Results:

Yes - it's in the international rules and should be disallowed and I don't care and I've had enough of these fishing questions tied with 40% of the votes each from the following selection:

  • Yes - it's in the international rules and should be disallowed (40%)
  • No - it wasn't intentional and should have been allowed (20%)
  • I don't care and I've had enough of these fishing questions (40%)

Analysis:

An odd mix of voting! I was really expecting the majority of votes to come down on the side of wanting the end of the fishing questions. Well, I guess that was where the joint winner in the vote questions, but not unanimously. The good news is that the fishing questions will likely stop for a while as I get back into the routine of work and all that good stuff now that my vacation is over. Regarding the question, it's a bit of an irrelevant point, it's in the international rules, it was an international match and therefore the fish doesn't count. End of story. I have to say, as sad as it may sound, I really enjoyed watching the match and the commentary that Sky TV put on.
