    BPT/MLF- Anyone else bored with them catching majority of fish in the 1lb range?

    Been watching for a half hour today - all 12-15" fish …….good numbers but catching small fish gets old ? I so prefer a 5 fish limit to watch during an event.

    As a tournament fisherman until you've actually fished this format, which I haven't, I think its not as compelling to watch live. This stuff is going to be edited down for a TV show later and thats where most of the eyes will see it, you put a bassmaster show and MLF show side by side to the average sports viewer they pick MLF and thats the point I guess.

    I enjoy catching sunfish when they are aggressive. But I don’t think anyone would want to watch me.

    Nope. Love seeing the best in the world adapt to changing conditions and finding ways to get bit . Pure fishing, as Bobby Lane catches a 4+ .

    Yep. My nephews, bil, dad, GF, all love MLF and watch it regularly. But turn on a Bassmaster show and they’re on their phones or out the door. Turn on a FLWho and they’ll fight you for the remote.....This format was never intended for us hardcore anglers, it was designed to catch those that don’t bass fish.

    Not bored at all. Been a great event. Beautiful lake, lots of fish & interesting to see variety of ways they're being caught.

    Seriously? I can't imagine forcing myself to watch a show I don't like, then go online and complain about it.

    The only thing that gets old is the number of threads that get started with this exact same topic.
