Look at Bernie's stats. 30+ years on tour and 1.2 Million in winnings. sounds like a lot, and it is a lot more than I will ever earn, but I ain't a pro. Far from it. However, I think he has fished 361 events and has checked 184 times. that's a bit upside down. He's had 20 top 10s. Sounds good but do the math and it's horrible. Can he fish? yeh, he's a middle of the pack guy at best on a very difficult tour. How he manages to keep getting the invite baffles me. What I know is this, what he did was uncalled for even if he's right, it is not a good look.
