The live coverage is pretty terrible. I went out yesterday, I didn't think the spectators were bad. There were probably 15 boats on Lee for most of the morning, kept a nice distance.

I haven't heard one angler complain about the spectators.

one of the pros told me once that they really can't complain because they were afraid the spectators would complain to their sponsors.....

I'm sure the wind kept plenty away and the camera doesn't do justice to how nasty alot of that stuff is to run into. People who don't know the lake and just go around running willy nilly will end up in the fiberglass shop or buying a lower unit. The trees you see sticking up aren't the problem. The jungle you don't see is the problem. And generally speaking the locals around here are well behaved and know how to act.

It’s public water- nothing wrong with lots of boats out there.

do you think football or baseball would be more interesting or have any effect on the game if they let the jock-sniffers out on the field during games?

Unlike stadiums BASS doesn’t own the lake.

I have to give you credit, your troll game has come a long way. I'm pretty sure not only has this subject been hashed over countless times but unless you just started watching this stuff you know what goes on out there. Nothing new here is happening that doesn't happen at every BASS event

Dude is 107 years old. It’s 100% not a troll…it’s real life!

Apples and oranges- put the bassmaster classic in a private pond they paid for and then you’d have an argument.

I went yesterday and watched Zaldain and then Fothergill and Livesay they were sharing water pretty close to each other , there was a couple other pros coming into there area also those 4 people got along great . I didn’t see one spectator boat get in the way most were 100yards or so out towards the main creek , heck Fothergill and Livesay fished around the area when they moved out every one would get out of the way . I don’t get why you don’t think people should come out and watch they do in golf .

how many spectator boats were there and how close to the pros were they?

does anybody remember the pictures of Jason Christie or Iconnelli trying to fish docks on Grand lake and having to weave through spectator boats to fish a line of docks?

I havent beeen since these boys got here. I don't fish for a living and have let em have it. Personally, I cant think of anything more boring then watching another grown man fish in person and be in his way.
