They are currently airing the Florida Harris chain shows and man listening to Boyd Duckett whine and make excuses just kills me. VanDam struggled and said the fish didn't do what he thought they would. Ike struggled and said hey this happens in fishing and is part of why I love the sport. Boyd Struggles and all he can say is if he was from Florida like shaw he'd be catching 7lbers too. He also said bring this tournament to alabama and I'll go out in the first period. I like Boyd, he can fish, but he came across like an arrogant whiner to me. Btw, Gary klien is from TEXAS boyd, and he did just fine.

I can't stand Duckett. His rods are junk, his reels are junk, he conducts himself like an arrogant *ick. And that's my personal opinion from being around him numerous times.

I agree. Haha. He had an excuse for everything that happens.

didn't they change up the whole qualifying system this year...last year they got a big round sumthin'...this year they had to fight thru qualifying rounds to the final 6...am i right or lost???

I don't wish him any bad luck and he hasn't personally done anything to me
But.... just something there that I don't care for
I still wish the best for him though

crapyetr- from what I understand there are like a certain number(20) of guys who are "locked" into the MLF Challenge Cup events and the Selects are those that haven't qualified to be on the Challenge side or have lost too many points to stay up there and need to make it back. They keep showing the Points during the MLF shows I'm currently watching(and what I am assuming is current??- Harris chain) and there are def anglers that need to re-qualify to be "in" the upper league.

I think its like soccer overseas where they have the Premiere League and teams can be "relegated" to the lower leagues and have to gain enough points to make it back.

probably the only time I have ever compared bass fishing to soccer!! guess being stationed over there for 3 years I picked up on some stuff.

Gary Klein is from California. He started fishing BASS in '79 but didn't move to Texas (Weatherford) until 1988.

Yeah, whining like a little kid who had their toy taken from them. Bad thing is, if he had tried in the first quarter he might have qualified.


Now someone will come along and say "well, he has a bassmaster classic trophy and y'all don't". Yep and he's also rich, so why the crying...

Must have forgot his Bent Pole Binoculars at the house. Figure it is just a matter of time before someone posts the picture of them...lol.

I agree, just something there very different, I was watching bass dr last night and he was the guest, had to change it! Lol

Thank you for saying it.

Bunch of spoiled cry babies!

"Bring this thing to Guntersville and let's see what happens."

He did exactly what he was trying to do...he got ya'll talking about MLF.

Didn't he come up with the concept, get ball rolling on starting the show and shares some ownership?
