I’m sure I’m in the minority here but I couldn’t care less if there ever was a Ray Scott or a Johnny Morris! As for tournament fishing I see it. But for bass fishing in general people was catching them long before they ever came on the seen. JMO.

I would think if you didn't truly care then you would not give it a second thought. If yiu are enjoying fishing your way then how does what they do affect you?
Certainly Ray Scott "was" but thankfully Johnny Morris is still alive and well hoping to sell you some fishing or other sort of outdoor gear. And he probably could care less about your personal JMO.
Like I said just my opinion! Just feel at times bass has been over commercialized and over exploited. Just like grow the the sport does it really need more pressure. And since you are a tournament angler I can see why you see it differently!Originally Posted by Mark Perry
Sucky job but somebody had to do it I guess. I'd worry myself to death trying to figure out where to store all of that damn money that came along with it, huge PITA I'm sure.
I'm not a big tournament guy, but anyone that pays attention realizes the value of tournament fishing, particularly bass, walleye and crappie tournament fishing.
Placing money and prestige on the winning of competitions has led to so many innovations and improvements in lures, rods, reels, boats, line, hooks, and every other product used or invented, that fishermen use.
I am a fisherman first....tournament angler second. While I truly enjoy fishing tournaments I would be fine with never fishing another. I will never stop fishing though.
Yea well just like he’s in the process of screwing up Welaka Florida a town of 700 people to put in a resort. I think something’s or better left alone!Certainly Ray Scott "was" but thankfully Johnny Morris is still alive and well hoping to sell you some fishing or other sort of outdoor gear.

Ray Scott did more for conserving bass and bass fishing than anyone before him and probably after him at this point. There was more to the man than running tournaments.
Geeezzzzz....

Johnny Morris and his Capital One sponsored CLUB points have paid for all of my fishing gear for the last 7 years. Trying to save up my points to get a boat next.
I will never stop fishing! But just like some guys on here that get hung up on what some of the pros do it has no effect on my life.just saying I was enjoying fishing long before Scott and Morris came on the seen.
It sure looks like it affects ya a little.

Cool story bro. You used the correct form of “ couldn’t care less” so you got that going for you.

I don’t know I’ll think about tomorrow when I’m out fishing!
At that time, shouldn't you be concentrating on looking at your screens?I don’t know I’ll think about tomorrow when I’m out fishing!
