BassStriker101 Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Ok so my sister is buying me a hat for my birthday and I have 2 choices, a hat signed by Edwin Evers or a hat signed by Roland Martin. Which one do you think is better and more known so I know which one to choose. Quote
derekxec Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 more known i think roland martin but you should get who you prefer because its yours 1 Quote
Kevin22 Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Get what you want. Sounds almost as if you plan to sell it? Quote
MrSwimJig Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 E2 Edwin Evers.... more then likely the 2013 angler of the year. He has been on it this year. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted July 3, 2013 Global Moderator Posted July 3, 2013 Not a fan of Roland at all. His show is a 30 minute commercial disguised as a fishing show and I've heard he's a real jerk in person. I like Evers. Great fisherman and was really nice to all the fans I saw him talking to at the Classic. 5 Quote

Hyrule Bass Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 i have a roland martin autographed hat i got him to sign at BPS over a year ago in MD, the hat cost like $5, the sig was free. Quote
200racing Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 you would to have to wear a roland martin hat. EE all the way. Quote
Super User South FLA Posted July 9, 2013 Super User Posted July 9, 2013 Evers or Roland Martin, as far as fishing history goes, one is in the fishing hall of fame the other isn't! So if it were based on some type of potential monetary or historical value in the long run I would go with Martin and I bet Evers would too! As far as personality and judgment of character that is a tough call and it is up to the individual to decide. Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted July 9, 2013 Super User Posted July 9, 2013 Roland Martin was a pioneer in the sport and i know a few people who have talked to him and they said he was the nicest guy and gave them some pointers too. Bottom line is who cares really......get them both Quote
Super User AK-Jax86 Posted July 9, 2013 Super User Posted July 9, 2013 Evers it's about the young blood leave them old heads alone lol Quote

stkbassn Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Yeah, get them both if you can. I used to love Roland , Bill, Jimmy, and all of the old guys that were icons when I was first getting into fishing. I tend to favor the new guys of the sport now for whatever reason. I prefer Scott Martin over Roland but that's me They're all amazing fisherman! Quote
tholmes Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 The hat that fits. ^ This. It's not like you're gonna marry one of 'em. Tom Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted July 10, 2013 Global Moderator Posted July 10, 2013 a hat signed by Bluebasser86. better story for people on the street. Ha! I doubt anyone would listen to that story Quote
FrogFreak Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 I know a buddy of mine who was fishing close to Roland up here in Minnesota one day and he was catching while Roland wasn't. Roland was trying to get some footage for his show and he kept looking over at my buddy netting fish after fish so he finally came over and asked him what he was throwing. I don't remember what magic lure my buddy was using but when Roland asked, my buddy, who's quite the smart ass, just looked at him and said, "You're Roland Martin, you tell me." Roland just looked at him for a second with a frown and then started laughing. No idea which hat you should get, my rule of thumb is if your decision won't effect your life 5 years down the road, don't worry about it too much. How about eeny meeny minnie mo? 1 Quote
