Does Charlie Moore Know How To Fish?

[stkbassn]

Anyone know if the guy is legit or just a loud mouth?

[airborne_angler]

I find him annoying

[Ima Bass Ninja]

If memory serves me correctly he has some experience But if you are asking he can stand with the big boys like KVD or IKE I would say probably not. I know one member here has fished with him before so maybe he would be a better source of info and hopefully will chime in.

Here's a link

Don't know, find him way to annoying to watch long enough to see if he has talent.

The bigger question is, who do you find more obnoxious, Charlie Moore, Ike, or Ish?

[aumdb487]

Charlie Moore is just loud and his "fishing" show is hardly fishing at all. I like Ike when he isn't breaking stuff and/or too emotional, I think he knows his stuff. Not sure I have seen or heard that much from Ish to know if I like him or not.

Ha! That's a funny one. Gotta say Charlie though.....

Ike is funny man, he gets all pumped up...throws his tantrums but I admire his passion. I haven't paid much attention to Ish, is he annoying as well?

[grimlin]

His show is not for me. Plain and simple.

I'm not gonna bad mouth the guy,I really don't know him too well. From what I have seen on TV he is loud.Show business you gotta keep things entertaining,he does seem to try and do that. It's a different crowd he is targeting through television. kinda seemed aimed more toward the classy fishermen.

I know that the fresh wave of "personalities" are more popular with the younger generation, but I just cannot stand the over the top pretentious attitudes that Ike and Ish have. I have always grown up being taught to be confident, but not cocky, and that is why both of these guys to me act like children.

[LgMouthGambler]

He is a different character to the fishing world. I think his show is pretty good, it mixes things up a bit. He came down here and fished with Shane for Snakeheads. My wife loves his show, she thinks hes a trip. As far as being a legit fisherman? Meh.

Obviously everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion, though forming it from watching folks on fishing shows only seems a bit narrow minded.

I have actually fished with Ish in an Open tournament and he is a professional and a gentleman. I have been around him many times since and he has always been unpretentious, respectful and friendly.

I have never fished with Ike but have attended Bass U. and was able to spend some time with him. He is either a very sincere unpretentious person or a fantastic actor.

I have seen the shows you refer to and really do not see the same qualities in these two that you do.

I have met and talked to Ike several times at bass tournaments and iCast, and can tell you the guy is a class act in his attitude towards fans,answering questions, and overall attitude. I have only briefly met Ish and have never met Charlie so I cannot speak about them, but if it were negative I would keep my mouth shut since it is hard to judge people in the public eye based on brief encounters

[J_Pearson]

If we're going to say we don't like someone because they're loud...I don't think I'd have many friends...

Let's pump on the brakes, my words are starting to get taken out of context.

Being from MN, I have not had the opportunity to meet these gentleman and so the opinions I have of them are SOLELY based off the impressions I have gathered from TV viewing. I never once said I did not like them as individuals, I just feel like they're over the top personalities ON TV, and that to me becomes obnoxious...I am sure they are great individuals when they are not being filmed, but again I cannot personally attest to that.

He fishes? I thought he just had that show to show off his rings, Hummer and wife....

[.Paxamus.]

He has a fishing show so I am happy that there are people out there trying to keep the sport and outdoors alive and interesting for kids. On the other hand his voice and his show is like nails on a chalkboard to me, the only one worse was that last (short run) show of Fish Fishburne (who I really like)

[stkbassn]

Fish Fishburne is a trip for sure! Charlie has done well for himself, I can't knock him for that at all. When I say he's loud I just meant that well, he's loud! HA! I've just never seen up get serious about fishing but maybe that's the point of his show....not to be so serious. If that's it, he definitely accomplished what he set out to do...

[scrutch]

I think I'd like Charlie a little more if he dumped the $400 designer jeans and the Miami nightlife look. Big O, send the man some camo shorts and send me the bill!

[Bluebasser86]

IMO, not really. I've watched his show several times and can't remember him catching anything other than dinks, even doing shows in Florida and other known big fish places.

[tomustang]

Watching some of the episodes it's seems like he's more interested in his boston sports teams than fishing..

[Diablos]

Being from Mass and working in the fishing industry since I was 16, I constantly hear rumors that Charlie Moore is a lousy self centered person.

He dropped a lawsuit on a tackle shop when they named themselves Mad Fish Outfitters and had to change their name to Bad Fish Outfitters.

I personally don't know the guy but I don't think he is funny at all. I just don't like loud, close-talkers aka the raincoats.

[clayton86]

haha yeah don't forget the food he spends more time talking bout his favorite eats then fishing.

[Ror Boy]

I cant stand charlie moore. I will leave it at that.

[LuckyHandsINC.]

I also can not stand him or is show.

I am with ya. That was what I was saying in my original post...I just didn't grow up surrounded by those types of people, so I cannot stand watching people act that way.
