I've been laid up recovering from foot surgery for 9 days now so I've watched more fishing than usual. I miss the old days of the Bassmasters and the FLW Tour. I still love the Bassmaster format, but most of the guys I like to watch have retired or went to MLF. And I despise MLF. Watching elite level pros beat the banks trying to catch 50 dinks is not interesting to me. Having multiple "championship" rounds a week plus all the other championships they have going on is silly. And finally, the new team events where 3 guys are on a team talking to each other on headsets is utterly stupid. After 15 minutes I had heard enough of the "Come on boys! Let's go!!!" to last a dozen lifetimes. I guess it's like nascar and everything else. "Progress" keeps moving leaving us old timers in the past.
