Mike_Cus from NY

hockey superstition is you don't touch it until you win it! I will never touch it when I have been around it! don't want to jinx the family.

Tough feedback moderation today. I had 2 comments rejected!!!! Gonna need my own show I guess. - MARK.... I JUST MISSED IT SORRY. MULTITASKING....

Matt: Pennsylvania does have good smallmouth fishing among other species - think Susquehanna, Juniata rivers, Lake Erie.

Philmanchu

9:49

Wow. What a thought: the Classic disappoints this year.

ChadInCanada

9:47

Evolution can be painful, especially if you resist and want to stay a Neanderthal...

Basszilla

9:44

ID rather watch Darcie Izzle than MLF. For obvious reasons too.

ChadInCanada

9:43

The new anglers who only follow BPT at this point will see why immediate catch-weigh-release is better.

Dennis in IL

9:43

NASCAR is losing their fan base !

Jason in IA

9:43

they BPT and BASS need to get the feed fixed before even considering taking money for it

Philmanchu

9:43

First league to air their content on ROKU wins. YouTube channels don't cut it with sporting events.

Will IN

9:41

The market is not going to be the people watching live yet.

9:39

I'd pay if I could listen to the anglers instead of the commentators! on MLF

9:38

not paying

duckettank, NC

Discovery Channel, CBS network. Definitely a different audience.

David - WI

9:37

I think $10/month is too high for such limited content. It would have to be way better than what I pay extra to the cable guys to have Outdoor Channel in my package.

Mike_Cus from NY

9:37

Chad: I know BASS and Ray history pretty darn well, been a BASS member since 1978. Heck man, I even ran one of the largest BASS Federations in the nation for 4 years. My opinion you are over glorifying him as someone who wasn't out to make a profit. He could of increased payout/reduced entry fees long ago. Especially when he was the only game in town with sponsor money rolling in for Bassmaster.

bars and resturants are not showing fishing

ChadInCanada

9:34

Ya, I agree with Dennis. Get Ray on here!

Dennis in IL

9:33

Ray Scott has been pretty silent ! Would like to know how he feels about what is going on !

Jake in Ohio

9:33

Shouldn't be...

ChadInCanada

I'm glad BassFan could figure out a way to rank BPT finishes. I'm still confused on how the points will work...

9:32

But, how do you rank the first two out of the top 20 from Group A and B?

finger hooked

9:32

wrong matt

Jake in Ohio

9:32

It's match play vs stroke play, guys..

ChadInCanada

9:30

Jerry McKinnis knew it was coming... Anglers can't keep a secret like the BPT formation. There were rumours for sure.

finger hooked

9:26

vexsus boats are coming into the market it will be interesting to see their cost i

ChadInCanada

9:26

For the newer anglers/bassfans, who don't know the history of competitive bass fishing, read BASS BOSS (book) and search YouTube for BASS Legends & Lore videos. That will tell you the way it all came to be.

PA Crankbait

9:26

Philmanchu I agree with you. Best people manager I worked for had a favorite saying - behavior is caused. Treat a person in a certain way and their behavior will be caused by how they perceive the treatment. BASS management was asleep at the switch or too greedy.

ChadInCanada

9:26

Philmanchu, BASS wasn't asleep. I don't think Jerry McKinnis leaving BASS prior to the BPT being announced is a coincidence. They knew...

9:26

Mark ask Matt what he thinks the winning weight will be on Grand for the BFL will be.

finger hooked

9:24

how about the judges not being paid the website shows that their expenses are paid no other pay so should nfl nba and mlb all go to that format as well

Philmanchu

9:17

I think the exodus was more due to BASS being asleep at the wheel and the anglers were looking to leave.

ChadInCanada

9:14

Mike_Cus, if anything Ray is under "glorified" these days. He started it all. He reduced the limit from a 15-bass kill limit to a 5-bass limit. He instituted "Don't Kill Your Catch" and made livewells mandatory. He made kill switches mandatory. He made BASS evolve for the betterment of the sport.

Philmanchu

9:13

Good one "j" !
