    "They are interested in the social media exposure". Says the guy who's shifted to making RUclips videos full time.

    Bass did this to itself . I find it unwatcable somtimes . I dont even care or know whi these anglers are . Electronics have ruined pro fishing . Its to much about electronics instead of raw fishing ability .

    They fish 9 weeks over a 5 or 6 month period. This gives them 6 months to guide or work on their social media presence to earn a good living. Otherwise get into another line of work.

    I wonder if Bass modeled last year's results by tournament to see how the field would have finished under these new payouts? Seems like a no brainer... Maybe model the last 2-3 years results? I find it hard to believe that they didn't do that.... Wonder what that would reflect??

    • @cuivre2004
      @cuivre2004 Час назад

      If they didn't run model situations beforehand and let the anglers do it (which they obviously did very quickly), they are hardly fit to run a big tournament organization. Seems like the second-generation BASS tournament businessmen/organizers are not tuned in to the angler's thought processes. There are way too many fits and starts with their changes.

    It's all starting to make sense now. That entry fee money has to come from somewhere. The electronics companies are the only ones making enough money now to be able to absorb that money. No wonder B.A.S.S. has fought so hard to promote FFS for these companies. They have helped them make millions.

  • @mikeandrade586
    @mikeandrade586 2 часа назад

    There are other RUclipsrs who have done the math based on results of real pros. They include that last year they paid an entry fee and compared the overall earnings. Calculations are done without any sponsor money involved. They make less with the new rules, a lot less. And I'm willing to wager sponsors will pay less now. At first I thought this was good, but after seeing the math I really can't believe that anymore. I do think Randy has a way of coming across biased towards old school fishing, but in this case he is correct, but isn't able to show the math fully. Seek a little deeper into the topic and you'll find what I'm talking about.

    It’s kind of a fantasy occupation anyway- look at the decline over the years- the entire industry will continue to go through changes as it has until their tv viewership and just general interest of the public will go down the drain. Few pros give a care about what their real job is in the end- to promote merchandise. The companies that use tournaments to promote - exactly what you said- will rely on much cheaper RUclips content providers. People want a show or a controversy- they don’t care about real knowledge so much.

  • @jwblount7802
    @jwblount7802 Час назад

    So lets ask this question... You mentioned the no entry fee is good if a major sponsor would step up and keep the payout the same but said sponsor say's they will do it but with no Livescope bans or limitations.. Would you and the other pros still bitch about the livescope as a cheater or just hush up and take the money?

  • @danielcurless4312
    @danielcurless4312 Час назад

    Okay now you are going overboard on this. Now imagine putting an extra 4500 per tournament. 40th place 500 tell me any other circuit that pays 40 places now. And if they do you won’t even make your entry fee back. 450000 a year for entry fees don’t know any angler that would turn that down. Common sense here.
