you have made good points, and i guess in this statement pro and expert is interchangeable. i guess i will rethink my own definition of what a pro is.
as for claiming that someone else has invented the techniques described in bassmaster, some sort of proof should be offered prior to making these claims
Marc Marcantonio said:This horse has been kicked to death in many internet forums, and in the end there is no right or wrong answer. "Pro" is in the eyes of the beholder
i would agree with all that you have said John G except with regards to me, i'm not down on evryone i just want people to think a little
John G said:Pro or no pro I could care less To me every person has something to offer I have had people on my boat that had no clue how to catch a bass but at the end of the day I found I learned something new fishing related or other. Proverbs states ( a wise man has many counselors) I don't need to take the advise just listen to many & make your own conclusion. Since Pat seems to be down on everyone & everything I would question his success & knowledge but mostly his motives.
Great reply and information, Marc.
Yes, I did see you slip in a dropshotting frogs reference in a recent post. To that I say, "Ssssshhhhh!"
Wow, just joined the site a few minutes ago and can see that spring needs to get here soon.I have been fishin tournaments for a long time 25years Plus,and have fished with Denny Brauer,Skeet Reese,Robert Lee and a few other notable (PRO,S)And have taken there money as well they have taken mine.To be a pro is to simply pay the PRO entry and fish.And quess what?Now you playing with the big boys. You are a PRO.Its that easy.And when you win $$$$$ Uncle Sam see,s you as a PRO?And by the way Pat. Washington has put out its fair share! Specialy one that makes the final cut at the Forrest Wood Cup.Yes Ron you are a PRO.And a Dam good one.

hey Geno what the hell are you doing up so damn early ? go back to bed it's December !
good point on the pro thing. what is a pro ? who is a pro ? Ronald is a pro !
ask the guy that has been disqualified from a pro tournament for conversing with a '' local pro '' during tournament hours that isn't entered in the tourney and he'll tell you what a pro is. Who is a local pro ? there is a butt load of local pro's in this state. Me, i am a master at my craft, i am a bait maker. I fish NW BASS so does this mean i am a pro in the industry ? Yes it does. Well at least now it does because now bait making is my profession. As far as tournament fishing goes i do not consider my self a pro that would be ludicrous. But i guarranty you one thing some one would be disqualified for seeking me out for info during a tourney if the tour came to town. This would include the Columbia River. Before the tourney not a problem, during a tourney a problem.
Some would call me a Master Bait maker. Some would call me a pro !
