Hey Five Bass with the writers on strike I think you're in!

You've got it down word for word LOL

Tell Roland to holler at me....I'll write him a couple of shows if I can get one of his Rocket Rods (with his autograph) and some sunscreen.

"Hall of Fame

Did you know that Roland Martin was the first professional bass fisherman to be inducted into all three Halls of Fame?

IGFA Hall of Fame

Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame

Professional Bass Fishing Hall of Fame

On the screen and off, Roland Martin is one of the most recognizable fishermen in fishing. That is because his TV career spans nearly three decades, and he is one of the most legendary figures in the professional bass fishing arena."

Perhaps some day you all will reach his level of expertise in fishing and achieve some of his many successes in this sport. He did inform me that he is going to start paying out of his pocket to put on the fishing shows instead of taking the money of advertisers as most TV producers do. Of course it won't be long before he is broke, as TV show production does cost a lot  of money, but he will be happy in his poverty as he will have the approval nod from this renowned group of anglers. ;D

Good points George.  I think that even through all these slams here, we all recognize what he has done for the sport.  Hard to deny.  

So,....You gonna be a guest on the new show?  

I doubt it Russ.

I guess it WOULD be an issue if  he went out with you.  His fans might see a real 8 lbr and wonder why he's been calling all those smaller fish "Hawgz",lol.

9 B.A.S.S. Angler of the Years

19 B.A.S.S. tournament wins?

Originally from Laurel,  MD  I believe.

I don't know I think I could watch Rolands advertising rather than hearing Shaw Grigsby squeall like a little girl one more time. :

I'm glad I'm not the only one that CAN'T stand it when he does that. LOL

Although his show might take it to the exreme,most all fishing shows that I've watched are selling something.

The thing I hate most about his show is that stooooopid theme song.  

.....he's just like a gypsy.....   :
