Fishing two different baits on a community hole, should have been able to work it out like Men.

Sounds and looks too me like he's ready to retire from fishing.

Randy seems like a good guy. Clearly he is probably more of an old school fisherman, but it is pretty cut and dry he acted like a child on this one. Why in the world, would you get up and leave because of this? Surely he had more spots on this lake if he is the "ledge hand" he is supposed to be. The thing that stands out to me is Lambert drove by on day 2, saw Haynes there and kept on going. Gave the spot to Haynes on day 2. With the boat draw system on days 1 and 2 there will be this whole thing of not fishing holes at the same time on days 1 and 2. I remember the FLW event on Kentucky lake a few years back. You had Mark Rose, JT Kenney, Chad Grigsby and Casey Martin all on a spot and fishing together on a school and they were very close to each-other. They even let another angler, maybe Scott Centerbury come in later and get a limit. It can be done, you just have to sack up and quit being a baby about it and deal.

I think Haynes should be embarrassed, if he couldn't get the spot first he shouldn't have pulled on top of Lambert. I liked it when he decided to leave the spot but to quit? He should have finished the day and then quit if he wanted. Probably the worst thing about tourneys is this chippy stuff that happens every day.

Y'all keep making it about the spot. It's beyond that for Randy at this point. For someone to put it on the trailer that early mentally he was over it all.

With all due respect Jaret, I think you're missing the point. Randy got there 2nd. He lost. He is the guy that should have said "you got here first Jason, my bad. I lose out. Mind if I fish it with you?"..... or go fish another spot. Lambert was totally within his rights to do what he did and seemed to handle it pretty well and sounded like he would have been fine with Haynes fishing it with him. Haynes did not handle it well and seems to struggle with change. Seems pretty cut and dry to me.

So does Haynes walk away from a 100k flooring job cause another contractor is placing s bid or working next door!? Thats just bad business and no competitor or business man would do that. IMO its something bigger than he has a regular job and is old school. Old school guys dont give up. Thats for these gen x kids these days. Most of us fish tourney because we love to fish and we are competitive. Seems a little chicken [censored] to me. No way in hell im walking away from 100k if Im in contention for the win. If hes the best ledge guy then he should have more than 1 spot on Kentucky lake. Oh well I guess. Congrats to lambert for staying focused and not letting his head get in the way!! +1

I think the thought was probably he was leading and the rest should yield to that if they knew that was his water. I think there was a time that ettiquite dictated that.

Ahhh, I must have misunderstood. I thought Lambert had taken the lead after day 2. I thought that is what was said on FLW live. My misunderstanding. Then I see why he was frustrated. That's how I always understood it too. If a guy is leading, you don't fish his hole. My bad, I misunderstood.

It would have been funny if a few locals were sitting on that community hole on the last day.
"Professional Anglers" sitting on community holes......sounds like the bent pole pattern too.
What a joke!

I dont understand the people calling the man a baby.
Never saw where he complained, whined, or fussed.
He simply left.
Other fishermen would have fished and then complained on the water and cried about why they lost.
He said nothing and made a big statement IMO.

Wow... I'm sure there is a bit more to it but this is what has been reported. Lambert started on the hole on day one. Haynes started on the hole day 2. They both raced to the hole this morning and Lambert barely beat him there. Very small spot/cast specific.
Interesting excerpt from the rules: Contestants are expected to compete every day for which they are qualified; failure to do so may result in ineligibility to compete in future FLW tournaments. That is never upheld. I was in the Open at Red River when Biffle didn't like the fishery so he pulled out just before the rules meeting and went to fish a Costa on his home lake instead. Nothing happened. That's a completely different situation, has nothing to do with this rule violation. Biffle didn't break any rule.
