Sometimes it’s not about what you tow across the scales, sometimes it’s about what you leave at the dock. Just because you have a few bad tournaments you still hold your head high and believe in yourself. A lot of guys would quit and go home. So the life lessons you teach everyone about not giving up and having a positive attitude is sometimes more valuable than cashing a check.
@@GeraldGMANSwindle Can i ask you honestly? if my reel's drag is 18lbs max then why would i ever use line heavier than about 20 lb test since the drag will give out before the line will?
You got this brother we all had bad patches. Ive had an entire year where i didnt make the cut. A few of them i showed up to the stage with no fish. But we keep pushing. Nobody said fishin for a living would be easy. Get um in BAMA brother. Elites coming to smith for the first time. Thats right in your wheelhouse. Was great hanging with yall at Murray and was being serious. You changed my life an in many ways saved it. I been following you 20 plus years but can honestly say if i didbt come across your PMA videos when i did i probably wouldnt he here. And that means so much more than fishing. Thanks brother hope to see you on that stage one day! Might even be at Smith. 10 hours aint so bad 😂
I lost a $6,000 smallmouth in college... over a decade ago. I still feel that one. It was on film, too. I wish I still had that video. 2021, I got close to the big show. Just have to keep at it.
You’ve got great character and you’ll alway be leader just with that , you’ll get the breaks ya need just got to keep plugging along brother it’ll happen. That being said you have a home lake coming up lake wheeler it’s very possible it maybe fire , iv talked to ole boys saying wheeler has come back , is beginning to produce nice bags again good luck rest of the year , headed fishing on pickwick right now till next big dawg keep getting after them.
It happens , just remember even if you have a bad tournament I’m still your friend . We don’t even know each other and not matter how many bad tournaments you have I’ll still be ya friend .
It happens man. You reacted well to it, though. Sometimes when that happens to me, I tell myself that there are fish bigger than that in the lake. Keep up the good work
The guy can barely walk, let alone bend over. That’s why old fisherman aren’t elite anymore. They don’t have the physical ability to keep Up with the young guys. Fact
@@Fishinmagician31Uh Oh we got a ffs lovin rookie lovin weenie in the chat ! Trust me on this when G and everybody like him does leave this sport , it won’t be worth watching !
He's accomplished more than you ever thought about. Matter of fact erase the chalkboard. Starting today at his age he'll still accomplish more. You wunna know why ?@@Fishinmagician31
I won’t never know because i haven’t been blessed with plenty of money,but i wonder how bad it hurts to suck at tournament fishing when you have a big bank account,tons of sponsors,200k rig boat/truck,always wondered,also can you buy enough of whatever you need to keep competing,just curious 🤔🤷🏻♂️
While I am blessed with great sponsors, that has come from 25 years of working my a$& off. I’ve never claimed to be the best but I don’t think I suck at it 😂. Hoping my current year isn’t all you take into consideration when you form your opinion about me. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Do you know how G-Man has what he has today? He started out struggling to achieve a dream, eating bags of 35 cent hamburgers from McDonald's and sleeping in a truck because hotels cost too much. He, and many like him, achieved their dreams and successes thru hard work and dedication; they do not have a goose laying golden eggs to pay for it all. Those that do still require a measure of hard work to achieve their goals/dreams, if they don't work hard money will dry out before success is achieved.
Gman done it the hard way, it's not like these young anglers of today, that fish high school and college. They have a better platform to come off of to make it to the elites. These older guys made it through hard work, sweat and tears. My opinion is if these young guys today had to make it like gman did , alot of them would have gave up . Gman, don't let a few keyboard warriors get you down. You and a few others stand for what's right in this sport. Doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking........
@@GeraldGMANSwindle2 angler of the year awards 2 Time century club in the money alot more compared to most but you suck G 😂 haters Crack me up 😂 don't you know they internet bassmasters!
Ronnie boy you ever heard the saying about dogs? Bulldog mouth chihuahua ass? Usually the dude bragging about money is like the dude bragging about his pecker size. When it come down to it he ain't got crap 😂
I recall 30 years ago Gman was fake being completely lost as a country boy listening to rap and sorta acting like a fool 🙄. Perhaps it was just being young, but the lesson is be yourself
