At this rate, there won’t be any 2019 top 10 anglers left in the FLW pro tour. This one has fished FLW his whole career, so what would make someone want to walk away from something he devoted all of his time to? All is not well at MLFLW - so don’t let others with a protective agenda misdirect you Into looking at their distractive shiny objects. Lots more bad news for MLF will be coming out in the days to come. The flood gates are starting to open now.

Big O, you obviously have an ax to grind. How about you tell us who you are and what you want to accomplish.

Valid comment, this is much deeper than just not liking the format or owner. popcorn

You do realize that same situation X a TON happened just last year from the exact organization that you’re championing, right? You do realize the irony in your post, right?

Those guys got sold a bill of goods and many of them are just now coming to realize it. They all got distracted by that shiny object that was being waived around in a feeding frenzy and fell for the bait, hook, line, and sinker... that’s the irony of it all... get it, fisherman, hook, line, sinker? lol

The smart ones paid $50k to get out from under that mistake, the others were not quick enough to move, even those with legends chip that could be used, so now they be stuck for at least another year. So, yeah, I see the irony... so do all those who could qualify for BPT that are choosing a new path that won’t allow them to qualify for the BPT. Miserable times ahead for those locked into having to put on the dink show.

You didnot answer the question. What's your beef with MLF? Did they personally wrong you in some way? You are trying to defend grown men who made a choice. I personally like both formats.

BigO obviously has an agenda. He just joined 5 days ago and every post is negative to MLF.

The old FLW is going to be the “feeder” trail for BPT/MLF. It’s now the equivalent of AAA baseball club. No surprise some of the best from that trail are looking elsewhere. Nobody wants to go from the bigs to the minors. No news here, just another attempt to keep everyone stirred up. MLF announced they would be establishing feeder trails from the very beginning of the BPT that would provide a clear path to earn your way to the big show. If that’s not want an angler wants then they can go to BASS. What a great time to be a professional angler and have not only choice of trail but also choice of format.

I can't stand mlf but that buy out was going to be tough to please anyone much less everyone. BASS dang near bought them and they likely won by not buying flw. Mlf did not buy flw to keep a separate equally competitive field with a format that they say is going away.

I also agree that mlf is run by a bunch of crooks and it won't make it. After just one year and the amount of shake up makes it a bit obvious. But time will tell.

Just because you don’t like them doesn’t make them crooks. Good business is not criminal just because the outcome doesn’t suit or is not fair to all individuals caught up in the process. Two guys left MLF. How is that a major shakeup at this point. Anglers not wanting to be on a feeder tour I get. To me everything going on is pretty normal at this point. There is probably going to be a lot of movement in the next couple of years until it all settles out.
