Super User scaleface Posted October 30, 2021 Super User Posted October 30, 2021 He actually finished tied for tenth place . He lost out because the other guy had a heavier one day limit . Wouldnt that be a kick in the teeth . 1
Super User Tennessee Boy Posted October 30, 2021 Super User Posted October 30, 2021 His video where he tells the whole story of the tournament is worth watching. The guy was forced to just go fishing on water he had not prefished. As he put it, he was just junk fishing and he was doing it without livescope. He finished tied for tenth in the Toyota Series Championship doing that. We tend to think these guys are using their superior knowledge and expensive electronics to find the best spot on the lake. Most days they’re just like the rest of us and don’t find that spot. When that happens they just have to fish hard to catch the fish they do find. I think we spend to much time admiring their knowledge and their expensive electronics and not enough time admiring their skill when the rod is in their hand. 2 1

He's suggesting fishing companys will be moving sponsorship money away from pros without social media followers and by extension I'm taking away from this that professional tournament fishing may disappear. Not being a follower of pro fishing tournaments myself, I'm wondering what other's on this board think? oe I think some people take fishing, social media, forums, YouTube, pro fisherman and fishing personalities way to serious. Just remember, every penny that goes into these peoples hands comes from your pockets. One way or another we pay their salaries. Grow the sport my a**.
