They're covering it more like a golf tournament. Less angler interaction and more studio break down.

Jeff - TN

9:57

TOS Matt, but there was no mention of the easy pick in Ott just Lester. Nothing against the guy but obvious ignoring of MLF members

Mark-Minnesota

9:56

I wonder if Ott knows some private hidey holes they won't be able to find him in for the Classic?

ChadInCanada

9:56

Oh man! The Boyd episode will blow up the feedback...

TOS Matt

9:55

Jeff-TN Lester and Ott practiced together up there. I expect they'll both be in contention

Jake in Ohio

9:55

Jeff- Zona said Ott as well

Mark-Minnesota

9:54

I like hearing the wheels fell off stories, especially from Swindell!

Jeff - TN

9:53

Anybody else notice on BASS the classic pick for zona was Lester because he's familiar with the TN rivers? While Ott lives less than 35 miles from the classic?

Brian from Lake Norman

9:53

What was Matt making for dinner, Hungry Man frozen dinner?

Dennis in IL

9:52

With the way BASS is acting the Classic is going to be interesting !

Jake in Ohio

9:52

Agreed, Mark. They'll improve it.

Jeff - TN

9:52

Does the 31st placed guy in nascar get to do a big stage interview after the daytona 500? Mark is correct.

TOS Matt

9:52

Mark-MN I agree!

Mark-Minnesota

9:51

I'm sure they will tweak the post game show to make it better and shorter especially for the early rounds. It was better than watching a older FLW weigh in with 170 boaters and 170 co's weighing in.

Jake in Ohio

9:50

The stage / drive through in general was the biggest fail IMO.

Jeff - TN

9:50

I agree, they promised how many hundreds of hours of exposure, if I bought that exposure as a sponsor of someone who doesn't have a camera in their boat each tourny I'm gonna be doubting the accuracy of the sold exposure!

Brian from Lake Norman

9:50

BPT live feed down, well they made it an hour today

ChadInCanada

9:49

Put them in the BPT Penalty Box...

Maynard

9:48

Wasn't that part of the exposure they promised? Sublime those shirts !

Jeff - TN

9:47

Could we get a "after show" announcer that doesn't yell so hard that his voice cracks? The fishing industry puts so much equity into their MC's energy level rather than content of letting the fan learn about the competitor on a personal level.

Mark-Minnesota

9:46

Competition will always make the product better. Otherwise people get lazy and take things for granted. (BASS?)

David - WI

9:46

I'm a big motorsports fan. Most teams pay to play. If you don't have the money, you fold. I wonder how long the no entry fees will last unless a sponsor's ponying up mad $$$

ChadInCanada

9:45

I don't think MLF needs to have lobbiests if BASS already has that covered. Unless they can truly work together and not compete with each other in any way.

MattP-NC

9:45

MLF live is better today

Dennis in IL

9:45

It is a pissing contest between BASS & BPT for viewers ! lol

ChadInCanada

9:44

I think I am mostly pissed off because BASS didn't evolve to stay relevent. Now they are in scramble-mode AFTER then have been reduced to AAA status (true pros don't pay to play).

Mark-Minnesota

9:43

Hopefully the MLF/BPT will grow in their actual conservation and feeder programs for the next anglers after they get more established.

Jake in Ohio

9:42

MLF's carpet rule is a joke. Literally everyone on camera says "I'll take the penalty".. maybe they should penalize the weight for a fish that touches carpet lol

MattP-NC

9:40

Did y'all notice BASS went live yesterday. With no Tourny.

Jeff - TN

9:39

I work in professional rodeo for a living and there are many similarities to the PBR and ERA breakout. Just like in rodeo and MLF it comes down to $$$ backing it and a management that understands how to entertain. At the end of the day all of these sports are in the entertainment business.

Jake in Ohio

9:39

BASS does a ton of great conservation work. MLF used the instant release as a marketing ploy.

Mark-Minnesota

9:34

TOS Matt. -27 now, actual air temp, -48 wind chill. I work for the UMN. We are closed down today. I don't plan to go outside at all today other than to possibly start my car during the warmest part of the day. Get to watch BTL live and follow the BPT coverage!

THE BTL CREW

9:31

A COUPLE MORE CALLS FOR TODAY'S SHOW...... CALL NOW

TOS Matt

9:30

Mark-MN, sure hope you are warm up there buddy!

Maynard

9:29

To No. East Ohio, Just don't get confused, learn a technique at a time ! You can find plenty of ponds to fish . Just ask they can only say no ! Respect others property and ask to keep any or not !

Mark-Minnesota

9:29

It depends on how you are injured. Golf requires some fast swing movements and twisting and a lot of walking and standing. You can use a butt seat and fish certain ways if you are injured and or older. LOL!

Jake in Ohio

9:28

What % of the viewership is in the mold of "Troy"???

Alan in NC

9:27

He is the person is MLF is targeting

ChadInCanada

9:25

If your fishing is less strenuous than golf, you must be sitting under a tree floating live bait under a bobber...
