Never figured Hank was into man buns or wearing his hair in a beehive. Sad so many have bought into the grift.

Always liked him but he has been off the tour for 35 years. 32 - 45 lbs will no longer win tournaments.

Always been a Hank Parker fan but everything has a “shelf life”. Time passes you by. Lion Kings “Circle Of Life”. Many, many decades ago he was a paid spokesman for the “latest & greatest” technology that was available and for sale.

Hank's point with the golfball/baseball technology analogy with FFS is spot on, don't know if he is the originator, but that is the point...

I've always liked watching his shows. But he can go pound sand like the rest of the whiners.

It's hurting bait sales lol. When I hear that argument want I hear is the bait industry needs you to but expensive baits that don't work and throw them in fishless places rather than cheap baits that do work, especially when you throw them where fish are..... it's OK to buy a 200 plus dollar swim bait, that's not expensive...... hell buy a box full. But go out and spend 1499 on a transducer set up once and that's just expensive.......

Many, many decades ago he was a paid spokesman for the “latest & greatest” technology that was available and for sale. Exactly. He is acting like Randy, wants to pause the moment in time the latest tech lined up when he was fishing at his peak and hit pause. They’ll come up with some sensible rules next season on number of transducers and screen sizes and life will go on.

I dont understand why it is that when someone comes out and expresses an opinion on FFS, pro or con, that doesnt agree with yours, some automatically try to discredit and put down the man, rather than take on his opinion. Some of ya'll sound like old women. Hank should be able to express his views without the hens all tearing him down. Him being on the cutting edge of tech since its induction gives him credibility in MY opinion. He obviously sees something different with this newest technology and chose to share his views. I dont agree with him, but this used to be America where ideas were celebrated, not impugned, and men with major accomplishments were respected. He was the Millikin of his day, used the tech, was a media star, and made a lot of money. He earned his right to his opinion, even if i think it is a wrong one.
