This article was in the Courier-Journal a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was a pretty good read. If you know of some young man about to graduate high school or in college right now or maybe you have a youngster at home who is completely ate up with fishing like his dad, then show this to him, let him read it. It ain't always about how good someone is at catching fish, but it sure don't hurt anything to be able to put fish in the boat either.

Nice article, but kind of generic. It doesn't address the whole "crawl before you walk" aspect of it, which I think is the most important part. Far too many dive in head first, go broke, and end up going home with their tail between their legs. You have to start at the bottom, usually as a co-angler, and gradually progress your way up the ladder, if you don't you'll fall flat on your face!
I think you are reading into it wrong. The message I read is, Set goals and stick to them and work hard. Time on the water is priceless.Nice article, but kind of generic.

I got that message too, but was simply pointing out there was a lot left out and that it's not all glitz and glam....there is an ugly side to it that I've heard a lot about in many pro seminars I've attended.
I'm sure if a youngin' wants to pursue Bass Fishing on the professional level, or even consider it on the collegiate level, that he's already had his share of the bad and knows all about it. I just thought there was some stuff in there that goes a little beyond catching a fish...working with manufacturer's, etc...In this day and time I'd think a business classes might serve an up and coming bass Fisherman well.
