Media Bass East Texas Teams Lake Tyler May 7, 2016 moved to Lake Palestine

Sorry everyone, but due to that lake being closed indefinitely due to flooding, I am moving to Lake Palestine so that pre-fishing can begin asap for you guys.
If you have any questions, call me at 469-644-3123.
We will take off from the Villages at safe light by boat numbers.
The Marina will open at 5am for you all to pay your launch fee, breakfast and ice.
Please be sure and check in with those folks.

Just take Tyler off the schedule next year. Fast lane is the only one who likes that lake anyway

LOL, the guy cracks me up. Tommy, great job as always.

Best decision ever made... tyler wouldn't draw as many as palestine anyway.

No disrespect Fast Lane but do you fish the Media Trail?

Alot of people get upset if they can't run to the north end

I was going to Fish the one on Tyler;)

I know I can't make everyone happy, but at least I am giving everyone a chance to pre-fish before having to change it Friday.....
See you all Friday afternoon.

Come fish Palestine. The lake is producing big fish. Tommy had to make a decision and he did. He runs a great tournament. Come fish with us and you'll see. Its a good group of guys. Tonight it took right at 12lbs to win 3 fish. Tyler hasn't seen that in years.

Same as the average entries 53 on Tyler in March and 54 at this one. I don't see less

Sorry Robert, come fish with me sometime...I will pay your entry and if you get a check I will double it.. if not, leave me alone...
You are always negative....please think about the positive that we have done in east texas that didn't involve having to go to Rayburn or Toledo...
I know Tyler is your deal and it is for some others, but I have to make tough decisions and it never fairs well for all. Give me a break, its not my first RODEO....

TM that wasn't directed at you as much as it was the smart Alec's above. I am not negative, I am just straight forward and call it right down the middle. The truth hurts but I am going to say it regardless. I don't need you to pay my entry but thanks anyway. I will fish your next one on Tyler like I planned to on May 7th. This isn't my first Rodeo either bud.

Tommy, don't worry about it. He always has to have the last say in ever post. Just think it's funny he hasn't fished a "Media Bass Tournament" all year!

Not to mention every tournament that is moved to Palestine he doesn't fish! Just like ETBA, I know people he has told he's not supporting it. I may not not like the lake but I show up and fish.

A guy extends a generous offer and you reply in a condescending manner. Classy

The so-called generous offer was nothing more than a arrogant remark.

I told one person. That's exactly what I said and exactly what I meant.

Fast Lane, I'm not trying to ruffle any feathers here, but why don't you just go out and purchase all the stuff needed to run tournaments, start your own trail and have them all on Lake Tyler since that is your hot button. I think you will find that there is a lot more to running tournaments than everyone thinks. As the tournament director, sometimes you have to make calls that some folks won't like; just the nature of the beast. I'm all for free speech and all, but dude, give Tommy a break. He made a call that was best for his trail, not you in particular. You provoked him by trashing his decision and I don't blame him one bit for firing back. In the future you might ease up a little as Media Bass' rules and most other trails say "Tournament Director reserves the right to refuse entry of any person", or something very similar. It could get to the point where TD's may start refusing your entry because of things like I have read in this topic. Just my opinion.

Your opinion is yours, and thats fine.
My decisions are mine and thats fine.
You continually picking on Media Bass is just a little over board.
I respect your opinions, but when you fire at me I am going to fire back....
Your last post on this subject is fine by me, I don't need your rhetoric to get thru my week.....I just have to defend myself when I get bashed for no reason....

Have a great weekend!!!
