For me it's Greg Hackney. Not simply because we share the same first name, but he seems to be so humble. I've watched numerous videos about him fishing, innovation for Strike King, and I just can't get over how humble he seems. He's definately not the eratic, crazy fisherman I see on T.V. nowadays. He seems to maintain his composure. I'm sure there's some negatives I haven't seen, but that's not the point. I would have to say G-man is my second favorite.

You know the old saying
If it floats, flys, or f___s it is always cheaper to rent!
You have to decide which is more important.

I do not know any on a personell lvl, So its realy hard to tell who I would pick. All I can say is I like the old guys that don't have alot of flambouyent blowups. I know that they have a verry stressful job. The ones that handle that pressure with dignity are the ones I like.

Talked with the Hack Attack at ICAST this year, and he isnt any different to talk to as you discribed him. Mike Icon. isnt wild like you see him on TV, Skeet is quit and reserved as is Kevin, but if you approch them as a person, they are all humble, even Jonathon VanDam is quiet in person, but I have to say KVD is my favorite, but then again I have known him since he was in High School.

I like Greg Hackney as well. I tend to compare pros personality to mine and Greg Hackney seems calm and easy going....I also like Iaconelli because I have seen the impact, first hand, he has made on getting kids to want to get out and fish.

I like watching Ike, his hyper personality makes me laugh. Other than that, I don't know any of them so who knows.

The one that dosent have to explain every little detail of what he "thinks" he is fishing. Can't they say for once, "well I'm not sure what I'm fishing but the fish are here".
Or boy these WPT's have really paid off for me this week! Thanks SK or LC

Clark Rheeme because of his quietness and humility. Everyone who has ever met him has the same opinion of him. I heard he is the new "most interesting man alive".

Alton Jones because he gave my 2 fishing buddies the time of their fishin' lives! And I'm a little surprised Ken A didn't say something about Alton as well.
But for pros of yesteryear, I always liked Hank Parker!
