BTW, I invented the internet and currently hold the recipe for KFC.

 

you have a counterfeit, i have the original recipe....  and al gore takes all your credit for the interweb!

 

Sounds like a out of work "FLW" pro...

 

denali pro staff is what i think he meant to say

Wow, you guys are rough! Haha.

If he's telling the truth; that means he's accomplished more than any of us!

This topic, though old, is not outdated. Though they didn't get into a fistfight, it's not unlike the Poche/Monroe incident. It's about professionalism, and right from wrong. He's just stating his opinion. Though I find it tough to have an opinion on anything without being there first hand.

Switching gears a little bit here...

 

Call me suspicious, but I am wondering if maybe there is a marketing ploy behind "manufacturing" disagreements on purpose just to increase ratings and sales?

 

We have seen this sort of thing for decades in pro wrestling and Hollywood. And I wonder if some of this type of 'disagree on TV' thing is encouraged and maybe even staged to some degree?

 

Is it possible?

I care so much I didn't even catch that this two years old. lol 

I don't want the KFC recipe, but would love to have their coleslaw recipe.

I am a prefesional tournament fisherman just the same as dean, I fish on the flw tour though. Along with many others its my way of earning a living and from the point of view of of a fellow tournament fisherman I believe that Alton was completely out of line. I know some of the guys on the elite tour so I have a little bit on insider info on this topic and from what I've heard Alton was fishing that creek but it was a streach of bank quite a distance from where Dean was fishing. For Alton to go and start in Dean's area on the final day was compleatly unprofesonial. Its one of those unwritten rules of the water that if you are in the back of pack in 12th place and have no chance at winning your supposed to give the leader his room and don't show up at his area on the final day, just for the fact that if your in last place you can't fall any further. Since I fish for my way of making a living I would have been just as angry as dean was because, I too know the pressure of worrying about not only trying to win but also having to worry about making that check to support your family. Some may not agree but I would have bashed him just the same whether or not it was on TV.

What happened to fisherman556's post? Brian.

 I've not followed Alton Jones much but in that interview he gave in that video he sounds like a thoughtful and decent guy.
