If you had the chance to sit down with one professional angler 1 on 1 and honestly talk FISHING...

I'd pick Skeet Reese, Fish Fishburne or Gerald Swindle.

For local knowledge, I'd like to speed time picking RoLo's brain for fishing tips!

I would like to sit down with Charlie Moore and ask him how in the world he continues to have a show catching all those shorts and annoying all that watch.  Everytime I turn that show on, I have to turn it off before it's over.  He thinks he is a fisherman, comedian, actor etc.  To me, he's none of those.

KVD would be OK to talk to but I wouldn't want to fish with him. Same with some of the other guys. They are wired to be to intense on the water....

I still vote to sit down and talk, I would want to talk to Al Lindner. Really great guy, great in person, catches lots of fish of all types.

I'd talk faith (which honestly isn't my type of subject), and bass fishing small and largemouth, and musky fishing.

I'd rather sit down with someone like Glen Lau who has been studying bass behavior so I could ask questions about what bass are, what drives them, how they act, and therefore I could make better decisions when it comes to fishing. It's one thing to know where to find them on a body of water based on time of year and conditions, expecting bass to be where they are based on this.  I want to know WHY they are there, and where they would be if conditions weren't what they are for them to be there now. Once I know how they think and what drives them then I think I could catch them better.

I've had the opportunity to speak with Mike Mcclelland about what he looks for in deep structure. This was after the weigh in one day last year at the Old Hickory tournament.

He took me to his boat and pulled up the map of Kentucky Lake on his gps unit and showed what he looks for and what his strategy is during practice. Really awesome guy.

Another "pro" I would like to spend some time with is Kelley Jordon. Another deep structure guy that I wouldn't mind fishing with.

Would love to fish with Catt for a summer as well.

I agree with a lot of other people saying they would talk to a non-pro but i would have to say Bill Dance, he obviously has a huge database of wisdom behind his cries of SONNY JIM that nobody else can compete with.

Definatley, Ike.

Between the two of us catching fish we would probably wake the dead. After reading his book, the way we approach things and think are scary similar.

As far as the fishing "pros" go I would love to sit down with these three guys.

1.) Al Lindner

2.) Alton Jones

3.) Bill Siemantel

But most of all I would have loved to sit down with my late great uncle who taught my dad how to fish.  He could just flat out catch any fish, any time, any where.

Mike Iaconelli - I like his passion and his drive for fishing.  But to be honest, it would be even more cool to go partying that night!

I have been fortunate enough to have fished the California Delta with Dee Thomas, who is a master of the flipping technique, and is recognized as one of the originators of it. I have fished twice with him so far on two different trips to California.

On Lake Fork Texas, on two different trips down to there, I was able to fish Fork with Kelly Jordan, and had two awesome days of fishing with him, as well.

Both are tremendously knowledagle Bass anglers, and I learned much for both of them, despite having fished bass since 1960 myself.

Each of them was very willing to share many of thier secret tips with me.

good long talk with Bill Murphy...

also ask Ike why he is so obnoxious, screaming like a dang fool.  yeah yeah, I know, he is 'excited'.  I get excited too but don't scream like a 3 year old.

flame away, if you wish, it don't hurt me.

you can tell me how he gets kids into fishing, how he is such a great fisherman, how 'nice' he is in person, how he catches better fish than me, how he is living the life getting rich fishing and banging bass groupies, however, he is still a jerk in my book.   :)
