    All because of Ben and his horizontal transducer on a stick.

    Only people ruining the sport are the ones who constantly bitch & whine about how ffs is ruining the sport. I'll be embarrassed by NOT catching a bass WAY WAY more than i will ever be by catching a bass using ffs.

    good point. I just watched that idiot Randy bitching about spotlighting bass. He has a real hatred for ffs. Meanwhile this kid just did something Randy never has; winning the classic!

    Wonder if the used Bass boat market suddenly get flooded with boats full of tackle.

    Don't really give 2 shits... what the 402 fan base thinks... The dude could care less about you or his fans. Don't believe me get out on the water and boat ramp and watch him personally. I don't have to be a key board warrior.. I will just let his actions speak for him. I can promise you if you said no FFS for the rest of the year he would not make the classic next year. It is what it is and technology will and has changed bass tourney fishing. However don't tell me it's skill... It may be skill to look at a screen but without that and when it does not work you become nothing.

    Not crying... Being honest to tell others. You can take that how you want. The Marshall program is a joke and I expect that if an organization says hey it will be done this way it is done that way. Not hey we will take your money and do what we want and who cares what others think. So if you say it is crying.. So be it...

    You're an angry man, aren't you BillDance?

    I get that way, too when I have a boat ride that gets cancelled.

    Not angry.. just honest. Something a lot of folks are afraid of these days.

    Didn't say you weren't honest.

    However, there's a difference between being truthful and being honest.

    Truthful and honest are the same in my boat... Your truthful and honest or you are not.

    He was killing it long before FFS and it shows you're just speaking with emotions.

    Funny how many complaints about FFS but when you look at the profile pages on them and their post most are using newer line, reels, rods, batteries, trolling motors and better electronics, if you don’t approve of FFS don’t use other “new” technology. It’s not going away maybe a limit on graphs but make sure if it’s ruining the sport you go back to a pond boat and a paddle, hard to say one technology is bad but not the other improvements are not, everything gets better, I understand that FFS is controversial but it doesn’t make you load the boat.

    I have heard the exact opposite from another guy who marshalled for Milliken.

    With the amount of negative posts from you, you might be the common denominator.

    It occurs to me that FFS has created a situation where people that never had a chance at winning a tournament but didn't know it, are now upset because they now realize that they never have a chance at winning a tournament.

    Other than the knowledge that they aren't capable of winning, absolutely nothing has changed.

    Dear "BillDance" ... please don't stop. Never stop hating. This is so good! I can feel your anger, stupidity, and absolute lack of FFS knowledge with everyone of your keystrokes. Appreciate the entertainment.

    P.S. Not a huge Milliken fan here. But he did make a classic. I would be your fan, but I'm not sure you have accomplished anything remotely close to what he has. Don't be a stranger, keep in touch.
