Super User ww2farmer Posted February 3, 2016 Super User Posted February 3, 2016 None of them, famous bass fishermen don't impress me too much. I'd rather fish with guys from here, or my buddies. My dream day of bass fishing is when my kids get old enough/interested enough to want to spend the entire day fishing with their old man. At ages 6 and 11, I have learned to not push it much past the first few "daddy can we go now" , I don't want them to hate it. 9 Quote

He seems like he'd be a blast to hang out with for a day, and I loved his city limits show. He didn't state "pro" he actually said "famous". 2 Quote
Super User buzzed bait Posted February 3, 2016 Super User Posted February 3, 2016 I would have to say either Todd Faircloth to learn from or Andy Montgomery to talk trash with.... Quote

Fishin Ethan Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Monster Mike catch Peacock Bass. He always catchs huge Peacocks down in Flordia. Or Thefishwhisper1 (look him up on instagram) he has his personal pond with trained bass and he does sick tricks. Also of course the legend Bill Dance and fish one of his lakes with him. Or one the tour It would be Ish Monore and flip pads with him Quote
stkbassn Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 This is tough because there's so many different pro's that I'd like to go with for a particular technique they do well. But I would probably choose Tim Horton because he's such a darn nice dude and obviously an excellent angler. Brent Ehrler comes to mind because he seems to be a nice guy but more than that he's extremely impressive. He's a bad arse! Keith Watson just because he's so funny and I'd like him to show me how to whack em' with that spoon. Zona and Mercer I like too! Mercer is absolutely hooked up with gear....amazing amount of money on the deck of that boat at all times, not to mention his tackle. Impressive. Also, maybe the guy that owns Roman Made. He has a sick set up and amount of gear and tackle too. I need to learn how to catch em' on those big glides....language barrier might hurt the lesson a bit....LOL This is just too hard, I give up! lol ! Quote

Super User Team9nine Posted February 3, 2016 Super User Posted February 3, 2016 "Famous"....? Lots I'd really enjoy fishing with, but I guess I could narrow my top 3 or 4 to Buck Perry, Rick Clunn, Al Lindner and Bill Binkelman, in no particular order. -T9 3 Quote

LittleBob Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I'd have to say either Iaconelli or here lately I'd like to fish with Mark Daniels. Started watching him on circuit breaker and been following him on social media also, just seems like a real cool guy that would be fun to fish with. 2 Quote
Super User geo g Posted February 3, 2016 Super User Posted February 3, 2016 I too am old school when it comes to the pros. 1). Hank Parker, because he would keep you laughing while your learning. 2).Bill Dance, a good person, funny, and one of the best all around. 3). Jimmy Huston, funny and a great spinner bait guy. Funny, great sense of humor is an important factor. 2 Quote

In Megabucks tournaments the lake is divided into 10 sections, the top 10 qualifying anglers rotate through each section every 50 minutes. Larry Nixon won 4 times 2 Quote
Dtree11 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I am thinking a little out of the box here... Theodore Roosevelt. I know he was an avid fly fisher, but I think he would be the type of guys telling "dirty" stories while fishing. Quote
Ohio Dave Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I think it would be Bill Dance: I grew up watching him on TV and really fell in love with the sport because of him. I love that he puts all of those crazy bloopers of himself out ever so often. A lot of guys could really teach me a ton about fishing but few can tell a story like Dance. Jerry M would be in the top five as well. My first thought actually went to Mark Zona but I don't know what to make of his appearances like at the Detroit fishing show. One night only and one time only..... I have never met any of these guys so its really a crap shoot as to who would be the most fun to spend a day on the water with Quote
Derekbass02 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 A few Elite series guys I would want to fish with. My top choice definitely wouldn't be Aaron Martens or KVD Quote

GoCougs14 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Probably Brandon Palunik. His hometown is really close to me in northern Idaho, and I know hes spent alot of time fishing lake CDA, hayden, and pend oreille. Would be interesting to fish those waters with him. Quote

Evan K Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Patrick McManus. Maybe not famous for fishing, but how would that trip NOT be enjoyable? 1 Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted February 3, 2016 Super User Posted February 3, 2016 I only get to do it once a year, but these guys are a lot of fun to fish with: My daughter just started high school so I'm on borrowed time with here. This was 4 years ago. 4 Quote
