punch Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 Man.. Elam wins the final Bass tournament of the year, quits 2 weeks later. Crazy stuff. Quote

punch Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 This is the worst possible situation for Bass, their roster has been totally decimated. This is a dark week for them. Quote

punch Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 Fred jumped and there's a rumor going around that Lucas is going also. Quote
Super User Gundog Posted September 28, 2018 Super User Posted September 28, 2018 Still not seeing that one name we are all wondering about. If KVD doesn't jump he'll have a big career in BASS. I can see him winning 5 plus tourneys. Quote
Super User NorcalBassin Posted September 28, 2018 Super User Posted September 28, 2018 Can't imagine KVD not going since he's been with MLF since the beginning and been one of their most successful fishermen with multiple wins. Plus it seems like catching a lot of fish in a hurry suits his style perfectly. Quote

He was so nervous to tell everyone he was leaving bass. It's like a sad breakup message to his girlfriend. He is a huge talent for sure, but I have never seen an public figure who more seems like they just hate every second of being on camera.  Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted September 28, 2018 Super User Posted September 28, 2018 KVD may be the one angler that could make his own rule. Sort of like ~ "Ya - I'm fishing both derbies. Anyone got a problem with that ?" A-Jay  4 Quote
punch Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 I think it's obvious KVD will be in MLF. Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted September 28, 2018 Super User Posted September 28, 2018 A-Mart looked like he was actually in pain in that clip. Really feel for the guy, had to be an agonizing decision. Bet each group will feel a whole lot better once this deal is done & over with and they can get back to fishing. A-Jay 2 Quote
