For any sporting event Fox blows ESPN out of the water; it's getting to where I hate to watch any thing on ESPN. Fox caters to the fans while ESPN says we're the bigger and here all you get. In 2001 I fish the B.A.S.S. Top 150 on Toledo Bend and ESPN's coverage on the radio was over powered by a tiny local AM station. Any who back to the G-man my point was he should have never been put in a situation where he had to make that decision.

I'm not trying to justify what Gerald done but by the same token these camera crews act like they have one responsibility filming. I just think there are better ways of putting on a production than the way ESPN is doing it, I've been to and fished in major B.A.S.S. tournaments since ESPN took over it's went down hill quickly.

With today's modern cameras and zoom lens there is no reason for a camera crew to be any place near the anglers. Swindle and Howell had been fishing the same area all morning so the camera crew should have been aware of the fact at some point and time one of the anglers was going to make a move and have a plan in place to avoid such situations. As for bystander to many times they have the attitude this is my lake and I can go where I want but they are the same ones who complain if some one gets near them. My point is these extra boats in the area are becoming a major problem that no one wants to address until some one gets hurt. It has been problem on this lake in peculiar during every tournament held there. Yea some of the blame is the G-Man's but I don't think it's his alone; this is a problem that has to be addressed.

I saw it on the Baton Rogue news while I was hiding from Rita The rods didn't look out of place to me but then I just a Cajun and that's where your rods should be just in case you're stranded.

Y'all think avid is jealous Dude this food is so good if you got some on your forehead your tongue would beat your brains out trying to get to it. Actually Sulphur got its name from its sulphur mines

First off Gerald had permission from Howell to make the move so from that stand point it was a legal move. As for the camera crew they don't need to be that close anyway, they were impeding Gerald's path. Camera views can make the distance look closer than it really is. These camera crews and bystanders need to learn to stay out of the angler's way; this is becoming a major problem over the last few years. These crews are getting to be like all others chasing Brittany Spears or someone. This is why I prefer Fox Sports coverage of anything, ESPN can cover any thing. You guys think that was dangerous y'all wouldn't want to be on Toledo Bend for the next couple of months, at least I would trust Gerald boat handling skills. I mean come on guys these camera boats have drivers that should be looking out for anglers who are starting to make a move and crank the big motor and get out of the way.

Couldn't agree more A lot of people bad mouth Byron's ability to fish but most who mouth off don't understand how hard it is to compete at that level.

I've never really been impressed with a Hot Foot but trigger throttle on the steering wheel now that I like.

Highly over looked

I glad to see the classic is in the spring Come on Hackney don't let me down

Long Mike Black's steaks are better in my option than any place in New Orleans

Zatarain's Red Beans and Rice in a box is pretty good and fast to fix, add sausage, throw it in a rice cooker, get out the plates & forks. crab fingers, stuffed crabs, seafood gumbo! I aint forgot no crabs!

Guys I would be more concerned about what I could learn than if chlorine would hurt my line or lure finish. It doesn't matter if it's a pool, river, pond, creek, lake or the ocean the benefits far exceed the any negatives.

Fontenot or Boudreaux?
