Crazy Happenings in Bass Fishing
I was all prepared and inspired to document all the things happening in bass fishing right now, but then the guys at Wired2Fish did such a damn good job , I am going to give you a link there , do a little summary and get to bed early! So read W2F's blog and see my editorials below:
Triton, Stratos & Ranger boats all under same roof and ownership, good or bad, too ealry to tell. I see it can go 2 ways, either they use their clout and huge market share to control the price and make bass boats even more expensive for all of us or they use their economies of scale and give us all better products for a better price. Also, interesting to see what changes they make to Pro-Staff and tournament circuits they sponsor.
KVD is a beast, but I cannot yet dieceide if I like the Post-Seaon format or not, what do you think? Leave a comment, I think I kind of feel for Skeet.
I think McKInnis leading BASS forward will be a pretty good thing for all bass anglers, it will be great to have the right passion and knowledge leading the organization going forward.
I look for Bryan Thrift or Brent Ehrler to put the crown jewel on one of their awesome seasons!
Good night and see you on Tonka this weekend!

Mc Kinnis and BASS are a very good fit. Need to move back to club level involvement and target recruiting and teaching new anglers the sport we love and enjoy without the win at all cost mentality that permeates our society. No future if we do not educate.
Skeet Reese got hosed.

I think AOY should be based on a years worth of fishing, not just a couple of weekends. I like KVD but Skeet beat the pants off the field this year. Stan got it right: Skeet got hosed.

Sorry about the double comment.. But that being said, I could support a post-season of two (or more) events with the limited field if the points system was changed to place more emphasis on the regular season standings as well.

I'm not a fan of the post season format. I think that Skeet should have walked away with it, after the year he had. Granted, KVD came from behind, but I think he was Angler of the Month, not AOY.

It does seem among the fans that care to voice their opinion, post-season is not a huge hit. Maybe if they unweighted the points a little, they could still have some drama, but not make it so lopsided
