To have sponsors, you have to have a social network presence.

I think this proves it ain't easy in the opens. A few of the MLF guys might see how tough it is and decide it's to tough to chance it To tough to chance what? Trying to requalify for the elites. Theres a chance some of these guys fail and just fade out being stuck in the opens.

If they are fishing MLF and fish the opens they aren't taking a chance on anything. They still have MLF. I guess i just don't understand what you are ssying

Scott Martin appears to be doing ok. He has a 42ft Freeman for offshore. That’s about a million dollar boat. Money is made more ways than just winning tournaments or being on a certain trail. Seems like Scott’s pretty good at making money.

There are a couple divisions of opens. Do you know BPT and the opens overlap or are you just guessing

Last I checked Johnny Morris is still sponsoring both MLF and BASS and Stan Kroenke holds a little more influence in the sponsor game than Chase Anderson, its not even a fair fight.
