Re: Bassmaster is a joke...well not a joke just disapointed!

Oh ok Jeff that makes a little better sense. I know there are many factors and I know they have tried in the past. I just wish they would put some effort. Even if it is at Mead. That's where they started and I would 100 percent make it to Mead or any Western large body of water. Thanks

Re: Bassmaster is a joke!

I doubt it too but it sure seems that way. I know they did the Elites up North a few years ago but seems they show little love to us out here. I know I heard it was because they also where not sure what the turnout would be.

Well onece again Bassmaster is scared to do an open on the west coast! What a joke, they must be scared as sh** knowing that someone from the west can and will beat one of their precious Elite pros.
