Damn, how did I miss the post that brought this on, sounds like a smack down is lurking.

I wonder if we could get Tim Hagen and Richard Mills to fish in the tournament too? I'll be there bright and early sat. see you all there. Remember the start time is 7:30, we backed it off to give everyone a little more time to get bait if needed. From the looks of it right now, I'll be using my snow blower to get out in the morning.

I've fished with and against josh in tournaments for four years and i've never seen him cheat for any reason what so ever.

I have fished partners with Josh for the past two years on the James, the Rapp, west point, mattaponi, the chick and the Potomac. We won the MD st. catfish championship together and the VA catfish assoc. angler of the year. I have never seen Josh at anytime do anything wrong. Josh is one of the best fisherman I've ever fished with. I caught my personal best fish while fishing with him on the James, 68.7 lbs. So I say to anyone that accuses Josh of cheating - "if you can't fish against the best, stay out of the tournaments and don't fish against the big boys."

I would like to know who this Josh is. Ive heard of a few Joshs on the river but not sure which one you guys are talking about. Ive had a JOSH pull 75 yards behind my anchored boat bellow sturgeon, one JOSH caught the Virgina/Maryland state record catfish, another JOSH told guys I called the Coast guard on people, one JOSH was seen recieveing a fish from another boat in a tounament, another JOSH has stolen other fishing spots to better him self for guiding, another JOSH is hitting the Crack pipe and the last JOSH i have heard of goes by RIVER KITTEN. I hope that its more than 1 JOSH because if not this is going to be one F**ked up guy.

To Mr. Fatcat and Kevin Salmon, This post is from Debbie Fitchett, Josh's wife. First off you better leave people out of your post if you dont know what you are talking about. You both are getting ready to get tangled up in something you cant get out of. It would be nice to see you both loose everything by running your mouths. As for Mr. Salmon, calling the Coasst Guard is something you did 2 years ago on two other guides and this is a fact. Havent seen the coast guard on the river this year.... As for smoking crack I think you better be able to back that up too. I live in the same household and certainly would know that and the drug test always come back clean. How about your random drug testing for the maritime consortium for your captains license....Are you enrolled? I was personally on the boat when the Md. State record fish was caught and yes it was in Md. not Virginia. We do not have to lie about where a fish is caught. No reason to lie. If you are good you are good.... I would like for you to prove to me who gave a fish to Josh in a tournament. Dont think you can back that one up either. The only F***ed up part about the claims you all keep posting that you dont fish the tournaments is because when you do you dont seem to bring back big fish. So I fished 2 years every single tournament with him in the VCA, Md. Catfish nation, JRCC tournaments that he fished and the big cat quest and I never saw him cheat and I damn sure dont cheat and there have been plenty of other people who have fished with him too. So you are calling me, and everyone else that has ever fished with him a cheater... You can kiss my a** and you better quit running your mouth if you cant back it up because you are headed for trouble and yes this is coming from me DEBBIE FITCHETT....
