The Tournament Lies

[crusty]

I think if an angler is sponsored by one product, there is no problem with using another product if it is not similar to one he is sponsored by.

But he or she should mention that he caught his fish on a generic lure type, eg soft plastic, hardbody or vibe rather than incorrectly naming his sponsors product as the one catching the fish.

You can be pretty sure that all you hear on the podium after a tournament isn't 100% correct cause money changes everything.

Anyone who thinks what the hear at weigh in's is 100% true needs to come see me, I have some awesome snake oil I would like to sell them real cheap

This is why as a importer I refuse to sponsor any of these tournaments and have been very reluctant to sponsor any anglers.
I read these tournaments reviews written on the ABT BREAM website to utter disgust on how you anglers continue such practices.
This is also relevant to latest report for the grand final you anglers know who you are, as it all comes out later when I get told of who actually was using what.
How the tournaments committee can also allow such practices to continue shows how unprofessional it all really is.

Care to elaborate?

Who lied about what?

Who told you of who was using what?

How do they know?

Untill we find out all the details of this i think we should just keep playing the Violin

One of the great benifits of having a sponsor that isnt fishing related.
1 i can use any lures, rods,reels i want.
2 id never have this problem ever.

Gee love it when i made a choice yrs ago to think outside the box.

Gee wiz, this topic is pulling some heart strings. I thought the best sponsor was the one who handed out the coolest stickers, hats and t-shirts. If anyone wants to sponsor someone who they know is not going to plug someone elses product because they know they will never make the podium... I'm your man..

Here's how the contract goes. "We'll put a sticker on your boat but speak one word in front of a camera and its over buddy." Thats's my kinda deal.

I prefer no moon, the cover darkness provides means you can actually cast anything you feel like.

You would lose lots of camions if you cast them into snags for 3 days
