Douglas I honestly don't care who Brian is or how bad he is. And your idle threats about what you want to say are laughable. My point is I'm sick and tired of gossip on this forum. It's gotten to the point where gossip and unsubstantiated rumors are more important then fishing and helping others out. Which is why this forum was started. m not on here to make friends. I was fortunate to of found this forum in its early days. This was the absolute best place to offer or get help. Now we have all of these rumors and gossip and I can't say his name [censored]. Josh Jones got slaughtered on here because of men acting like kids. Many were so jealous they spread rumors about him. It was sad and pathetic. As an adult I don't tolerate gossip and rumors and unsubstantiated claims. I don't speak unless I know it's the honest truth and i dont hold back someones name. . As far as Brian I mentioned him coming on here and giving us the name. He does that after Matt posted a video talking about FFS. So it was easy to mentione his name now . Yall can continue your gossip columns on here as much as you want. Just like I can make my comments. I guess to some pathetic individuals on here asking or calling out others to not spread rumors without facts is a sin. Maybe the forum needs a gossip or liars or rumor section. I know quite a few that could get a lifetime membership free of charge. It's as if everyday I read a post of he did this or I heard this. But I can't say who told me or I don't have any evidence to prove it. Like I said it's sad. And anyone who questions me about speaking out on that is someone that I have no need for in my life. So unfortunately anything said about me from those type of people don't worry me. I hope all of yall have a great labor day weekend. From what I can gather from some of your postings is your an old, possibly unsuccessful in life into your senior years, at one time you harassed some women in the Lady Anglers section and you are pretty bitter for some reason. Maybe you should attend church or a 12 step program. Bless Your Heart

I don't think he can help it.....

bsouth401, why would mentioning his name be a bad thing. No laws are broken, it's not slander. Is he scared of his sponsors dumping him. Me personally I don't believe gossip or rumors. You actually make yourself look worse by coming on here and trying to spread gossip. They do have a lady anglers section. You seem to be a better fit there. Brian South is one of the most upstanding and honest people that have ever posted on this forum. Also, I will lay big odds he can whip your butt and then you could proudly proclaim that a "lady angler" whipped your tail. To avoid getting banned I will not openly post what I really think of you! I was wondering who this dip [censored] is..... idiot

The sponsors are a huge part of the sport of course, but I feel that the main goal that professional bass fishing is pushing is viewership. For most, watching professional fishing is already boring. Even worse, watching the ffs tournaments are even more boring. I do believe the professionals series in bass fishing are in a pickle with the technology. And at some point, they will eventually have to regulate the tech in my own opinion.

I could be totally wrong, because you need eyes on the product to sell it. I personally don’t mind the ffs tournaments. I really enjoy watching the big water smallmouth tournaments. I find them more interesting than a tournament where people are just punching mats.

If you notice, a good many of the pros have taken to social media to get fans opinion about FFS during the last week or so. This isn’t by coincidence. Data is being collected for a decision one way or another.

Matt Herren, 30 years, zero wins, 19 top 10s. FFS is not his problem. Actually Matt Herren has won - at Dardenelle with FLW and in '16 he won the Toyota Texas Bass Classic while on the Elite Series. 169 Elite Series tournaments and 121 times in the money with $1.2 mil in winnings. FFS is not the only opinion Herren has about the way B.A.S.S. and MLF run their respective organizations but it is the 'hot' topic of the minute. This too shall pass.....

First off I'm not miserable gentlemen. I just don't like gossip or unsubstantiated comments. If that is to much to ask from grown men then so be it. What is so hard about having civil conversations even if we don't agree. Randy has been preaching about FFS for a few months. And yall have slaughtered him as an old miserable guy like you have done me. Josh Jones was slammed on here because yall did'nt like him. What has Josh ever done that was so wrong. So instead of having civil conversations yall resort to name calling. What is wrong with someone asking for evidence or proof of something that is posted. There are 4 or 5 of yall that always seem to get butthurt if someone questions you. All I'm asking for is some evidence or proof. Then Douglas comes on here talking about how bad Brian is and how he could whip me in a fight. All because I ask him to not post rumors or show some proof. If that makes me wrong then I can happily live with that. Because it shows me and others how childish yall are. Is it that hard to just post facts ? So here is your chance once again to call me names and say things about me. Because that is how yall handle someone that does'nt fall in line with you.

It's amazing what ole randy has been able to do with his YT channel. I subscribe to him and I listen to him at times and shut it down other times when he gets on a complaining streak (Some of his complaints about wholesale destruction of habitat for development in Florida and Missouri make sense). But he started on this FFS negativity some time ago. If it is banned I'm not sure we can say he is the catalyst but perhaps he is and ground zero where the FFS ban came from. And Randy creates a lot of content because I've heard him say a content creator with 75,000 subscribers with plenty of content that is generally watched from beginning to end can make a living at it. It's a pretty full time job for him now.
