If he is going to be deceitful with something as simple as a lure, then what else is he deceitful of? Do you not question a person's character when lied to?

Oh my gosh, he's just scum of the earth now because he didn't name the other crankbait he was using since he's sponsored by Rapala. I'm going to go burn my Fieder jersey right now.

...you have a Fieder jersey?


When I am not fishing I am thinking about fishing. And mostly what I should have done differently my last trip!

Then you don’t know it, but you just lost respect for 90% of them.

Fiedler threw the DT on day 1.


That's the sad reality of it and it's wrong.




I agree with you, but too them it’s just business. None of them will name drop if they aren’t receiving any compensation from the bait co. Live coverage has myth busted many claimed winning lures.

cheers

I don't think they lie so much as not tell the whole truth. Like you said, they are not going to name a company that doesn't sponsor them. This is why I personally don't put a lot of credence into what the pro's are are peddling. It's a business to them.

You must really hate Randy Howell for lying to the masses when he won the classic on a Rapala but then tied on a Livingston and caught a few for the camera. You need to ease up on these guys. If it bothers you that much I'm surprised you even enjoy following the pros on tour.

Yeah that was also deceitful of Randy. I enjoy fishing, regardless of what lure they use, but I don't agree with lying and deceiving fishing fans and audiences.

There are many of us that follow the same approach to what the pro's are peddling. There are a lot more though that don't.

Decrivings audience and fans. Lmao. The true fans of the sport know it doesnt make a [censored] what bait they are throwing 99% of the time. I could care less what they throw or how.

I agree I don't think they flat out lie they just don't promote a company that's not paying them.

I understand why you see it as deceitful, but it is the nature of the beast. There is not a guy out there that does not own a SK 5XD. Boyd Duckett is a Yamamoto guy and used a $4 bag of Zoom Ultravibe speed worms to a Top 3 at Conroe this season. Now he said unamed in his case, but the point is, the guys have to use what works best in a given situation. And throughout the course of the day chances are they do throw their own products, catch fish, maybe not weigh those fish etc.

Stating it as an unnamed bait is a bit different because they are not giving credit to another lure that clearly wasn't what they were using.

It also raises the question of why aren't they using the baits that they are sponsored by? Don't believe in the companies product? In his case, why was he throwing a competitors crankbait instead of a DT series? Are DT series crankbaits junk? When it comes to lures, it's okay to use a different company than your sponsor. What about boats or motors? Why can't someone run a nitro, yet be sponsored by skeeter or someone else? Are boat manufacturers more cut and dry than lure manufacturers?
