Seth Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 You busted me out, Seth. I'm a hater. I especially hate that our society has sunken to the point that people can't simply state an opinion without being mislabeled a "hater" or worse. It's the age of tolerance, where no man shall have an independent thought or opinion, much less speak it. Oh, and while I'm hating, I hate seeing the English language butchered for drama's sake. The upcoming Elite Series tournament is a sporting event, Seth. it's not about hate. It's about choosing to root for one (or more) competitor(s) over the others. I hope Palaniuk doesn't win. You hope my favorites don't win. To root for one is to root against the others, but it's not to hate them. I hate rape, murder, child/spousal abuse, animal abuse, terrorism, etc. I like some fishermen more than others. Big difference. Chill out lol. I was just kidding around. I could care less who you root for. There are plenty of folks who hate on KVD and he is one of the best. Nobody is going to liked by everybody. Everybody has their own reasons for not liking something. I just love seeing old guys get hacked off when the young guns kick everybody else's butt. It was nothing more than a little sporting trash talk. I'm sorry that you took it personal.
jolicious Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Sweet mercy - I guess I didn't realize that the pros would be on the Rock that first weekend in April. We will be at our condo in Branson Thursday through Sunday. I was going to mess around and fish a little getting ready for Oakley (and bring along my daughter for some perch jerking). I might need to leave the boat at home and just shop with the girls all weekend!
Alex Heitman Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Jolicious. I would bring the boat. The lake will fish big this weekend. The bite could bust open at any time. Plus the the top 50 only fish Saturday and the top 12 on shbday

dtrs5kprs Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Well that's a good point. OK, twist my arm lol!!!! I'll bring the beast From all the reports I think I would take the young lady up to Cape Fair and upwards. Quite a bit of everything going up there. Would like to see someone win finesse fishing, but it will probably come grinding rocks, especially if rain colors things up. Really anyone's game then...Christie might have a shot. Most of those guys can catch them cranking. Maybe Palaniuk will manage to DQ himself again...
Alex Heitman Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 If the dam area bust open there will be some monsters caught. No one has been fishing that area. Thinking a crank and jig will get it done.
Champ188 Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Maybe Palaniuk will manage to DQ himself again... Watch out, Dave. You can't go hatin' on folks like that. It's not PC. And you can't be rootin' only for the finesse fishermen coz that's discriminatory, and it's a short step from there to hate. Actually, I think they should stop fishing for money because it only encourages bad behavior and negative emotions. For Pete's sake, what if KVD doesn't make the cut? We can't have him driving back to Michigan believing he's a LOSER! I suggest they just fish for funsies and when it's all said and done, everyone gets a certificate and a little dashboard-sized trophy to gaze at on the drive home. Socialism. It's the new democracy!
Flysmallie Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 everyone gets a certificate and a little dashboard-sized trophy to gaze at on the drive home. Well I don't know why we don't do that, it's worked so well with the kids.

I know it is a popular term and that the poster meant no harm or disrespect. It is disappointing that our collective vocabulary has sunk to the point that an entire range of expression is reduced to a single word at the extreme end of the spectrum. I have noticed that the most successfully sponsored professional fisherman are generally the most articulate and have full command of the language.
Quillback Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 I have noticed that the most successfully sponsored professional fisherman are generally the most articulate and have full command of the language. KVD, whether a person likes him or not, does a great job in commercials. Some of those Basspro commercials he does are funny. I like the one where he and another fisherman are fishing in the BPS aquarium. "It's OK, I know a guy."
