cwen Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 Not sure if it is good for fishing, but I love that KVD is so dominant. To me it solidifies that fishing is not just something where you drop your lure in the water and wait. His consistency exemplifies that bass fishing is based on skill and not dumb luck. My 2 cents.

Super User Shane J Posted February 20, 2011 Super User Posted February 20, 2011 I agree. He's been fishing right along side other boats, and smokin' 'em. The guy is a fishing machine, simple as that. Quote
Super User Sam Posted February 20, 2011 Super User Posted February 20, 2011 Its great! Can't wait to read what he threw, etc. Outstanding show. Quote
airborne_angler Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 Its great! Can't wait to read what he threw, etc. Outstanding show. Been following several updates and one them said he was throwing a Charteuse SK Pro Model Spinnerbait and a 1.5 and 2.5 crankbait. Of course this is heresay at this point. Quote

What ever it turns out to be - once word gets out, they will be FLYING off the shelves in whole sale fashion. A-Jay Quote
WdyCrankbait Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 Not sure, but he is like the Dale Earnhardt Jr. of BASS fishing. So, popular and so much pressure and he keeps on finding a way to catch fish. Quote

As a second thought, I would say no, it is not good because whatever KVD wins on will be flying off the shelf! So, instead of people actually learning about fishing, they will say KVD caught fish on this and won so I should at least catch something. It is the "Kool-Aid," effect people will just drink the KA and become lazy. Quote
TimJ Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 it's like being Phil Mickelson with Tiger around...up until recently anyways...or being Brad Park with Bobby Orr around (hey, I'm Canadian), or anyone else with Gretzky around. nothing wrong with someone dominating. if they are good enough to be the man, they deserve everything they earn...just kind of sucks if you end up #2 often during their reign.

Super User NorcalBassin Posted February 21, 2011 Super User Posted February 21, 2011 It's good... sort of like Michael Jordan. Just brings more attention to the sport (and sponsors). Quote
ChiCityBasser Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 I would say it's a good thing when any person can be on a consistent roll and figure out ways to win each and every year. He is fishing with some of the best anglers in the world and manages to come out on top. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted February 21, 2011 Super User Posted February 21, 2011 If everyone else can't keep up, sucks to be them. Quote
SWMIBASSER Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Sponsor money enables more and more skilled guys to make their way into the Classic. Technology, and information has enabled the development of skills. I think someone who dominates in this day and age would make the guys who were good 20+ years ago look down right foolish. I hope to never see any sort of "greatest" tag ever applied to Rick Clunn again. Quote
flippin and pitchin Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 The man did it in shared water. Enough said. Quote
Kevinator1 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 KVD is unbelievable. Come on guys, we all know it isn't as easy as he makes it look. He is the best period. He is crazy good. Quote
MFBAB Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 I can't wait to watch it. A 10lb margin in shared water is pretty strong, it will be interesting to see whether there was any tension b/w the guys sharing that little patch of water and also whether they were using different techniques. Quote
Getfished Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 It's good that he dominates. Even though we might not be able to see it precisely, he makes many of the other pros better. He use his head for something besides a hat rack. Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted February 21, 2011 Super User Posted February 21, 2011 Every sport needs that seemingly unbeatable person/team to measure up to. Quote
zero Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 kvd winning is good but bad for us because the fishing classic will be at feb 25 for basspro massive sale and what lure he used will be out already because red eye shad and kvd spinnerbait is one of lures he used so i would maybe not get those bec they are on sale Quote
