It's pretty sad that Randy has gone to posting negative posts to get clicks. He puts out some really good tips, but wading thru the FFS stuff tuned me out. I expect he will probably say flashlights should not be used when going camping anymore, or ban metal detectors (just make them dig in the dirt and pray they find something). Can't knock someone about their opionion, as we are all entitled to that freedom. If that is the only way he can get revenue from Youtube, it's kinda sad.

If these new fishermen suck so bad then he should be out there showing them how its done instead of crying non stop about it. I dont have FFS but I am smart enough to see that it takes a different skill set to be good at it. Randy will be Randy though and cry about it. Its all about the attention for him even if people see him as a cry baby.

Truthfully if I hit the Powerball jackpot, I would do my best to try to qualify to fish in a Classic and then see what happens from there after the event. If I won a Classic a Padron 1926, Arturo Fuente Anejo or My Father Judge is getting burned that night.
Number one on Randy's rant list is a heap of dung for sure. Get some guy on the water who's never used a baitcaster and its backlash city. Even though guys are using spinning rods for FFS related fishing no one is coming off the street with no real bass fishing experience and making it to any high-level series any time soon regardless of what technology is available. I have a hard time believing that being good at video games translates over to FFS and reading graphs.
What dudes wear hat wise on the water has no effect on my life. I get that some dudes look goofy with digital snow camo or urban blue water camo Jersie's with board shorts and flip flops or slim jogger sweatpants that do look feminine buts that's on them and its not a concern to me really I have enough brain left to realize that some of the younger generation will dress different.
It's easy to get slightly agitated at the fact that some of these young dudes are getting major help from family money and have been stroking it on the gravy train bypassing hardships other men have had to deal with to make to the top dog level, there is always going to be the "Country Club Kid" and thats a fact of life. I get that it's easier to root for a guy who put in 20 years at the steel mill or on a rod buster crew tying bar and made it to the Elites than it is for some young kid who's sack just dropped and mom and dad still wipe his ace with 100 dollar bills to get him to the big leauges. Chances are the pro bass gig will come to a dead end for some of these younger dudes with money behind them, but at least they got a shot at giving it a try.
All I would like to see from any of the anglers is to stay humble and have respect, carry yourself with dignity and realize your position to make a positive impact with your peers in the bass fishing community and possibly outside of it. Never be a loudmouth braggart.

And yet Randy can’t even qualify for any league as a “professional angler”.

The sport has passed him by. All he can do at this point is to complain.

This is absurd- a million men check all those boxes and they can’t catch squat.
