Didn't he come up with the concept, get ball rolling on starting the show and shares some ownership? Yes, along with Klein, VanDam, Jordon, Horton and a couple more.

They're smart, create controversy and rivalries and get the fans talking. Remember Hack and Kelly Jordon going at it a year or two ago on MLF when Jordon showed up while Hack was whackin em? But that seemed manufactured. Those guys are very good businessmen too. There is an element of WWE to bass fishing that can be exploited for $.

Talking about people only noticing the drama. Did anyone else catch how good KVD spoke about Ike in that round. He was complimenting him and speaking of him in a positive light yet so many seem to only recall the "community" hole comment of a couple of years back in an Elite event that KVD made towards Ike.
I am betting a lot of these dustups that we as fans blow out of proportion are probably sqaushed the same day they happen over a cold bee and a few minutes of discussing.

it's like the WWE...they all share the same dressing room and come up with ideas of how the day plays out

Wow, you mean it's kinda Fake? I remember back when I was about 7 years old and I saw Wahoo McDaniel get whooped up on in some wrestling match and I cried. My dad told me right then that it was fake. I quit watching it.

I agree that "some" of the drama on MLF, along with Duckett's "whining", could be simple publicity. Found an article from 2011 that pretty much admits to that point. Like he says in this article, MLF's goal is to attract "non-endemic" sponsors. This is Duckett in 2011: http://www.bassfan.com/news_article/4030#.V2Ank7srJQI

at least 15 years ago before he was fishing any high flauten trail a bunch of us bass junkies from all over the country went to Wheeler for an internet rally.
It was supposed to be no pro's and a few locals. At the time he had a big reputation in the Alabama area as up and coming professional and somehow wangled an invitation to this deal. And won it. Except that the 2nd place angler from a far off state asked that question of the promoters and they ended up giving him the trophy instead.
