BTL - BASS TALK LIVE JUNE 19th, 2019

TOS-Matt

10:01

Chernobyl was excellent

Dave in AL

10:00

that'll be cool to have Matt at the "Con"!

9:57

Chad, think this years redcrest will not be anything super spectacular. The following year will prolly be the real deal.

TOS-Matt

9:54

Should MLF operate/be managed as a nonprofit org a la NFL?

ChadInCanada

9:54

Boyd better bring the MLF A-Game to the Red Crest... They've really hyped it up.

Dave in AL

9:54

part of the state tourism budget.

ABT is getting over 200k

9:53

Jim, gotta have the TV stuff to go after the audience that they really want to get to "grow the sport" they already have the hardcore segment captivated

Philmanchu

The Toho guides and the FWC have been butting heads for years.

9:53

We have had a lot of rains like you guys, there are algae blooms in multiple lakes.

Dave in AL

9:53

Matt, The core won't leave unless it's really really dramatic.

TOS-Matt

9:53

is the ICAST if bowling called IFLING? IROLL?

duckettank, NC

9:53

MLF Anglers Association will be headquartered in Guntersville and the state of Alabama is simply helping fund it through their tourism allotment.

Jim in Indiana

9:43

the MLF originally intended to do all in the dark, but they had to do the BPT in order to lock up the guys with 3 year contracts .... heck with the TV stuff ...I want to see what is going on weekly!

Dave in AL

9:43

yep....

Jake in Ohio

9:43

MLF needs to "activate" to sell some more Kool-Aid!

Dave in AL

9:40

MLF will evolve along the way some, but BASS and FLW are the ones that are going to have to modify the most to stay competitive IMO.

Andy-IN

9:40

Hell the FLW and BASS haven't fishing a big tournament in 1.5 months.

9:39

The guys in the FLW will be done soon if they don't qualify for the Forrest Wood Cup.

Jake in Ohio

9:38

This is hysterical!! I wish I could post GIF's lol

Dave in AL

9:37

Botton Line Drama and controversy makes good TV nowadays.

Andy-IN

9:37

They could start airing the shows in the fall but the ratings would suffer with football and hunting. Also, annual fishing burnout.

Dave SC

9:35

It takes weeks to show a cup event so it will all get mixed together anyway

Andy-IN

9:35

I disagree Mark. 1 cup event takes 6 weeks to air. 12 hours of TV

G Man in Dakotas

9:34

Its so confusing, I dont even try to follow it

Andy-IN

Dennis, that's why there needs to be an Urban IL and a southern IL. Indiana trailer, 3000lb $44.35

MLF isn't that confusing but maybe bring on another MLF guest. I usually like Boyd coming on but the last time he was full of double talk and BS.

9:34

Don't give it away Matt. I haven't watched the Championship yet!

Mark from Illinois

9:34

He won the Cup from 2018

Andy-IN

9:34

The fishing network is like Nick at Night. Old events.

Dave in AL

9:34

I think MLF has intentionally done this. The controlled chaos is by design. Just look at the discussion that is being generated.

Jake in Ohio

9:34

Mark I bet they're worried that if the "casual fan" that they're working so hard to lock up won't care if it's an "old" event.

Jim in Indiana

9:34

I think they want the viewers to think they are recent or live

BRIAN IN CA

9:28

Enjoy the beers Matt pour them in a chilled pint glass.

Dennis in IL

9:26

What do you guys pay for your boat trailer plates ? In Illinois they were 18.00 but they planning on raising them to 118.00 !

Andy-IN

9:26

I think Cup points only count towards the World Championship Event. Made for TV stuff looks to be semi-independent from the BPT, except for the top 30 qualification.

David - WI

9:25

I think Cup points count for the "World Championship" unless that no longer exists going forward

ChadInCanada

9:24

Andy, when you say to 30 average, is that the same as top 30 in AOY points after two events to qualify for the Cups?

Dave in AL

9:24

Congrats Matt on the finish....So would you agree that the info at these levels Costa's etc. are just part of the "Game"? With that said if MLF ends up buying FLW or a portion of them, do you think this will change?

ChadInCanada

9:24

I think we need Boyd on JUST for the purpose of season format/qualification clarity.
