I think it is good. I am most pleased that he plead guilty, and didn't steal more of our money by pushing a trial and more tax dollars to prosecute. The important thing is, he will never fish competitively again. Copied the link below:

Robby Rose plead guilty today in the Texas cheating incident we have been following. His sentence will be:

5 years probation
15 days in jail
No fishing license for 5 years

Details to follow…

UPDATE: 4/13/2010, 1:35 PM

I just wanted to add that I have verified the above with a TPWD official and with the Rockwall County DA’s Office. Mr. Rose will pay a $3,000 fine and perform community service in addition to items listed above. I will post a full story this evening. Interview with Captain Garry Collins TPWD will be featured on our forthcoming podcast to be released soon. — Bo Crawford

I think the sentence was too light. Of course there is no way of knowing how much he stole from Texas fishermen. But I have a sneaking suspicion that it was more than the 3K he is ordered to pay, would have been more satisfied if it were 20K and more time behind bars. I do still feel bad for his family.

i cant believe that pos only got that sentence. He is a thief. Just as bad as someone who would break into a car and steal a radio. I think he should have all of his fingers cut off. that would teach him a lesson. and lets talk about the hundreds of thousands of dollars he stole from honest working fisherman….i am just thankful i never came in second to him…..
