I grew up watching him and always enjoyed his shows. He was by far my favorite as a 10yr old kid

I don't understand how that has anything to do with FLW next year. Other than he won't be there

He's 74 now, probably nothing to do with FLW.

I remember when he first started catching everybodys attention. He made underhand casting popular, I do not remember the numbers. But he had calculated how many more cast per day that you could make using the under hand cast. When fishing a crankbait or spinnerbait,it was critical because the number was a few hundred more cast. Im pretty sure it was 76 or 77 when he started making noise and drawing attention nationally.

Moving spots without completely fastening his life jacket(8:00 minute mark of video)? Kids these days! Disqualification? JK. Gets around and sounds pretty dang good for competing @ 74! Gives me hope! GOAT? I don�t know about that but definitely one of the greats!

Someone bought me his book years ago and I still refer to it often.
Anyone who has won multiple AOYs is an all-time great. I'm proud of winning AOY in my bass club. LOL.

Always enjoy his shows and a great guy to talk with in person and a master at the underhand cast. When they had fishing shows at Big Town Mall, at his seminars he would be talking and flick a spinner bait out and drop it in some ones lap. You couldn't even see the motion it was so quick.

One of the nicest guys in the fishing industry and the greatest laugh for sure.

I saw that when it came out. I think Jimmy is just telling his fans that he will be making a life change before long.
