Who would you fish with??

What a great thread. It has brought back memories for me. I would love to fish with my all time favorite fishing buddy again. It would be me brother who killed himself back in 79. We loved to wade streams for smallmouth together. I still wade them but now it's with my 9 yr old son. My second choice would be my partner at Smack Tackle. Todd has been my best friend for 17 yrs or so and has filled the void in my life left by my brothers death. He loves to fish for all kinds of fish and is just about as goofy as I am when it comes to fishing. As far as famous people, I have to go with Al Lindner first. Here is a guy who started a couple of companies and made them go. I would love to talk with him about how he did it. He is a fisherman that loves to catch fish, any fish. He gets excited even if it is a drum or a red horse sucker. I watched him catch a carp below the dam at Cumberland and I could hear the laughing from shore as the other two guys were catching hawg stripers. He came over and talked with us even though they were in the middle of filming a show. My second choice would be KVD. He is a great guy and a great, if not the greatest, bass fisherman to jack a jaw. He loves those smallies and knows how to catch um up north. If I could fit another guy in the boat it would have to be Larry Dahlberg. I would love to catch some of those monsters around the world. Can you imagine the enthusiasm there would be in that boat with Larry, Al, and KVD? WOW!

Stacey King. I don't know much about the guy, only seen him on TV twice, but he seems like a pretty laid back kinda good ol' boy, someone who'd be fun to fish with. Plus he seems to specialize in jig fishing, which I'm currently concentrating on. Yes, KVD rules, but that run-and-gun fishing just isn't my style.

How come nobody wants to fish with Roland Martin. He could furnish all the baits and tackle! Aren't you about out of helicopter lures? LOL

I'm sure he'd be fun to fish with, but I think his show is boring as hell.

Son, Son, big 5, 6, 7- 8, maybe 9 lb bass, SON. He's the only guy I've ever seen that could make a bass grow three pounds just by reeling it in, LOL.

No doubt. What about that air pump shotgun rod? lol

My dad and my uncle don we have had some great trips. Pro KVD and Steve Kennedy both great guys who can catch them biguns.

Hey Elnut, how you doin? I hope things are going well for you. I am recovering from back surgery since Jan 24th so I know a little about what you are going thru.

As for famous people I would like to fish with, I would have to say the following:

KVD
Hank Parker (Spent some time with him Super Nice Guy)
Larry Nixion
Shaw Grisby (Spent a day on the water with him. He is just like his shows in person)

People I would never fish with:
Ike
Roland
Charlie Moore
