Skunkmaster-k Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 I read Tom’s replies and I think to myself “ dang self , I wish I could have listened to him at a seminar “ , and then it hit me. Why not get Glenn to do an interview with Tom ? That would be awesome. What do you think, would you like to listen to a master fisherman tell his story? 4

Super User slonezp Posted March 26, 2022 Super User Posted March 26, 2022 There's 10 years of Toms posts on BR. You want' it all spoon fed to you? No disrespect to Tom but he honed his skills on CA lakes that produce huge bass. Does that apply to all y'all? Probably not. I'll never be Tom. Chances are you'll never be Tom. Catt has a zillion pages here on fishing TB. I'll never be Catt and chances are, you'll never be Catt I won't even mention A-Jay and Lake Menderchuck. A 20 minute video with Glenn and Tom won't even touch the basics. Go back and read old threads from Tom and whoever else. There are plenty of old threads from guys that no longer post here that can be informative, if you can find them. 4 1

Happybeerbuzz Posted March 26, 2022 Posted March 26, 2022 I would love to hear how his personal pursuit of a world record bass evolved over the years with growth in knowledge about bass, changes in technology, and cultural changes of the sport. One of the main reasons I find Tom interesting is because of his commitment to a single goal. It is a devotion that I can not claim to have made about anything in my life beyond family. Even with family, it was not something that I started until my mid thirties, and it is more of a team activity. 1
Super User Hammer 4 Posted March 26, 2022 Super User Posted March 26, 2022 Regardless of all of Tom's post's, I for one would love to see Glenn interview Tom. I bought some of Tom's tackle awhile back, and just listening to the few minutes of him talking fishing was an experience, so yup, let it begin. 3
The Bassman Posted March 26, 2022 Posted March 26, 2022 Actually, I'd like to hear about his drag racing experiences. 1

Super User Jigfishn10 Posted March 26, 2022 Super User Posted March 26, 2022 Respect the fisherman but after recent support and thank you’s given publicly and privately that went without acknowledgment, I no longer respect the person. 1

What I'm saying is there are dozens of current and past BR members that are probably worthy of an interview but, how much information will you gather from a 15 minute video? The information already lies within the pages of this forum. It takes a special kind of person to dedicate their life to chasing the next world record. Tom is an accomplished angler and deserves credit for that. I'd much rather sit down and BS over a beer with WRB or catt or A-Jay or whomever, for that matter, than watch a video. 3
