    Well thanks, that explains that. I knew they fish with sponsors products almost exclusively so that's what you see them catch fish with. Even if another bait is better they will spend extra time trying to catch fish with a sponsors lure. I don't blame them, they are in this to make money. In-fisherman and Bass have both been bought out and push brands. I thought GM or Ford would have jumped on the bandwagon to keep some good ole boys but Toyota is putting the bucks there.

    As far as the "In-Fisherman" show goes, I guess a little "editing" can glorify any sponsored lure company they want.... for all we know, the guy could have been catching them on a .15 plastic Zoom worm from wal-mart, then sticking a x-rap in its mouth and chuck it back in the water for the camera man to film....The fishing shows never show a guys bad day on the water.....
