Yep. This will work out better for him with how he handled it. He does need to get better on the podcast and stuff, he kind keeps answers a little to short. I have a feeling that he will be reached out to by quite of few guys that have been around and shown the ins and outs and helped along. Typically the sophmore season is tough but im pulling for him to win a couple. I hope they go to Knoxville

I thought there was a rule; not etiquette, anglers could only be within about 50 yards of a competitor in most tournament circuits?

25 typically if there is a rule. I don't think they have that in big stuff.

I remembered after I posted this question years ago The G Man and Fish Fishburn getting into a similar dispute over a spot in a Bassmasters tournament. It was a pretty popular video for a while. Went to see if it was still up on You Tube and couldn't find it.

I will take that bet then make you the same bet on the coosa river?

Yep scum bags!

I have shared water with other tournament fishermen, but we agreed before we even set up so there would be no issues later. I remember sharing a drain at Rayburn a few years back where this particular spot was loaded with good fish and we talked while idling towards it as we arrived at same time that I was willing to share as long as he was and there wouldn't be no BS later. We had fun, both boats over 20 lb.'s in less than an hour and we really had a good time. It's to bad you don't see more of that anymore.

I just saw a short video on Slick Johnson’s Fakebook where Corey was showing true colors prior to last day. Those two brothers are prime examples of entitlement. I was also very surprised at Zona and Hite during the event, not sure they would have acted the same had Gee rolled up on Chris…..

Castledine had about a solid take as you can have on his YT video. Pretty much hammer meets nail.

I find it ridiculous that they don’t have some type of rule regarding a minimum distance. It sucks that an angler can just pull in on a bent pole pattern. Or do what happened here and pull up and take fish to help out someone else.
This happens a lot more than we see on TV. There should be a 25 to 50 yard rule.

Yes he did , hit the nail on the head .

Todd's takes are typically good....he does spend the last 5 minutes of the video complaining about people fishing "his spots" on Rayburn tho....which isn't 100% different from Gee going to fish that "spot" in the first place. But yeah, the more that comes out, the worse it looks for the Johnston's.

Gee comes on about the 2hr mark

Todd Casteldine who is pretty well respected by all of you had a good video on it.

Can someone post a link?
