I'm surprised that the younger folks aren't MLF first. I watch all three but definitely prefer BASS first.
I hate photobucket.

I am 59 will watch BASS Then FLW. Not watch MLF at all. I will say it again if the numbers were that great no sponsors would leave. People can scream at the top of their lungs about MLF but here’s more proof from a non biased party telling the numbers. So how is this being disputed? Great video even better FACTS

Actually very surprising (to me) that in less than two complete seasons, BPT/MLF already has 25% of the viewers. I would have thought they'd have a smaller but growing share of the viewers.
Consider that two years ago, that survey would have been 90% BASS and BPT didn't exist.
So BASS is trending down while BPT/MLF trends up. Will be interesting to see where they end up in a few years. BASS has a core set of viewers that will never leave and BPT/MLF probably does not have that core, yet.

I am still going to watch all 3. There would be no particular order. The one that would peak my interest and sway me would be if there was some controversy and I want to see what happened. That would be the one I pick first. Having choices is great in my opinion and I personally feel no need to have to pick a favorite.

I shared the survey results from the TFF BASS section two weeks ago, the numbers here were much higher than Ken's but different demos respond differently. Also, how you ask a survey question is REALLY important because it can skew the outcome. Here's the good news, MLF doesn't need a survey to know who's watching, where they are and for how long and for that matter neither does BASS. The properties aren't guessing gents.

For me it depends on the body of water they are on. Mlf is pretty good today. Lots of big fish getting caught which keeps me interested. A guy can jump 10-15 spots with one bite and that has happened today with some 8lbers caught

They need to slow down the frantic pace of their tv shows to the pace of their live feed. One thing you can tell from this BPT event is these guys still care about big fish and what their best 5 might weigh. Wouldn’t surprise me in the least if BPT became a 5 fish deal eventually. I really believe most just wanted more say In things and no entry fees.

I think it's possible the survey demographic would be biased toward a best 5 fish format. I don't fish tournaments mainly because I would mostly be donating money. Also, I don't want to stress over catching a fish and I don't have enough time to pre-fish.
I like MLF best, followed by BASS, then FLW. But I'll watch any of them.

My easy answer is I watch them all. I like that I can watch BASS and see Swindle and Zaldain. I like that I can watch FLW and watch Cox and Niggemeyer. I like I can watch BPT and see pick a name......There has never been a better time to watch tournament bass fishing at the highest levels than right now.
Enjoy!
