Watchin Aaron Martins WHINE at Guntersville.........

[bassfisherman99]

Most of the guys on here who complain about the pros wish they could be fishing for a living. If he asked nicely why wouln't you give him the spot. You could watch him and learn something. People follow these guys around all the time and then the next day and try to catch there fish. If some of you guys were fishing for that much money it would be a different story.

i under stand both sides but aaron martins is a cry baby any way you look at it. it is pretty bad when my wife who dont ever watch any of my fishin shows with me and the first one she realy ever watched she said who is that jerk he is a cry baby. i thought that was funny becouse me and my buddy dave have always said he wines alot. how come it is always him and no other pro that has this proublem. there are 101 pros that fish and he is the only one who complains about it. it seems to me he trys to find the hot local spots on lakes and then complain when other people are on it. it is almost like he cant ever find his own spots that nobody else is on like the other pros seem to do they either stay and deel with the fishin pressure or they move and find another spot. but what ever they decide they dont cry about it. i mean he did all that complaining and still won just think what he could have done if he would have put that time in fishin instead of crying. he is a good fisherman and i like his robo worms but please quit crying and just fish.

I'm not a pro. Heck, I just fish from the bank. So, what do I know? But, isn't part of fishing having to move and find new spots? When I go to a lake and someone is where I normally like to be, then I have to look for another spot. No asking someone to move, I know that part of fishing is having to find another spot. Sometimes you find one even better than what you had. These guys are in fishing tournaments, so let them fish like anyone else would have to do. Fishing for money seems like a privilege to me, not a right.

My first choice would be to give a Pro the spot because I'm just fishing and wouldn't want to interfere with someone trying to make a living. Now, if the guy was a knucklehead and pushed his way in or tossed some attitude my way then I wouldn't budge and would tell him why. It's simple respect and not everyone shows it or deserves it.
Heck, I have backed off spots for weekend tourny guys and received many thanks but again if the guy was stupid about it I wouldn't budge.

Martins is a WUSSY. He talks a big game in front of the camera then hugs the same guy later when he is face to face with him. Yea the boy can flat out fish but he'e still a big WUSSY. BTW George it was your spot first you don't have to yield to anyone and I mean anyone. These guys are suppose to be the cream of the crop find your own **** spot and shut the crap up about it!

Amen, brother, amen. If its a local doing it out of spite, or following the pro around, its wrong. However, the gentleman he talked to said he had a tournament coming up and had found the spot. Give the guy the benefit of the doubt and move on.

I had this tournament on DVR and I watched it again last night so that I could make sure my arguments in this thread were justified and that I didn't miss anything.

I especially like where Martens calls the guy a liar, and starts to use a little profanity but calls him a piece of work instead. Good job on cleaning it up for the camera, and way to set an example for any aspiring pro, Aaron.

Do you guys that disagree with his complaint even know the whole story? Aaron had fished that spot for 3 straight days and the guy that was watching him sat on that spot on day 4 so he could use it for a little tournament the following weekend. He was hole sitting. So you're darn right Aaron had a reason to complain. This joke of a fisherman is probably fishing for a$200 first place prize and Aaron is fishing for 100K. This is just my opinion. If it were me, I would have definetly moved off the spot and let him fish. For anyone to watch a pro fisherman and use his spots for their own tournament while it's still going on...that's very weak. I hope that guy was proud of himself to use someone else's fish to try and better himself. He must really feel like an accomplished fisherman. What a joke.

I love that term...''Someone elses fish''. NOBODY OWNS THE **** FISH! Pro's do this to weekend anglers all the time, most of them are the biggest cut throats around. It works both ways. First come first serve, PERIOD!

[psprowler]

If it were me I'd probably give him the spot because a.) I'm not that good of a lake fisherman and I would have been on it by chance and b.) I might learn something.

If a guy was a total punk about it I might have just dropped anchor and went swimming or something.

Just glad I never run into any pros on the rivers/streams.

I agree (first come first serve). Aaron had been there for 3 straight days, In my eyes that is "first come first serve". That guy had been watching Aaron catch big stringers for those days and decided he would like to save the fish for his own. What part of that do you see a correct. Aaron makes his living fishing.

How do you know the guy had been watching for 3 Days. Get real, he just decided on the last day to get in his way ? If he wanted to save the fish for him self there would have been more fish to save after day one.AND if he was on the lake as some of you are saying watching Aaton fish why not spend it SITTING on that hole instead of watching him carry 87 pounds or 15 keepers off that spot !!!! Think how stupid what some of you guys are saying really sounds.
