So in your opinion there isn't any new & upcoming anglers in the world? I guess Elite level anglers are cloned from KVD!

Tournaments you have no choice but to go, Toledo Bend & Rayburn will beat you to death. Days I wanna go they tell me it's off limits. Got tired of that & decided to pick my days.

Wasn't what I had in mind but 👌 Pros come from the amateur levels, if you can't compete on the amateur level don’t even think about Pro level. Lot of talk about sponsorships, I can tell ya this much, it doesn't matter how slick a talker you are, ya gotta be able to catch em first. Straight up talent wise, there's quite a few that can compete but simply choose not to for whatever reason. There are members here who are or have been guides, & I have friends who guide. In my personal opinion these anglers are better than Pros, they have to be on em everyday.

Y'all need to re-read 😉 Where y'all think Pros come from?

@Lottabass Sensitivity has 4 elements: Line, rod, hands, & brain. The absolute most essential element is the brain, interpretation of what's going on with our lure

7.5:1 - 31" per turn Why? Cause I like it 😉

I was lucky enough to have grown up around Toledo/Rayburn with that level of anglers as my teachers.

I hand typed these, notice the dates.

When FFS took the industry by storm it was said to have changed the way we fished. Damiki Rigs & Jerkbaits was what you had to throw. Well come to find out we are still catching them with FFS using Carolina Rigs, Deep Diving Crankbaits, Alabama Rigs, Jig-n-Craws, Flutter Spoons. We also learned you don't have to follow schools, you can still find them holding on structure.

Being a guide in my opinion is the most difficult aspect of fishing. It takes a level of commitment above tournament fishing. Staying on active fish for a multiple day tournament is hard, try doing it daily & year round. @F14A-B mentioned having a "network", it is very helpful at shorting the learning curve. Couldn't disagree more 😉 Different Era, with more advanced tools, the good ole days are now.

Richard @LovestoFish & I has been carrying on a discussion in messages since February 5, 2015. Lots of others to

That's a fact Jack! 😉 Fishing "coaches" that get paid are called guides
