Aprils Issue in BASS addressed this very subject!.. Quote from Ish Monroe.." We are trying to provide for our families and that lake is our office for just a couple of days.. Skeet Reese.. their community is paying us to be there to to bring exposure to that fishery.. Each of you have great opinions and each have merit.. There are potential lawyers in the group.. if not already! My take is this.. Be a better man and let them have the spots they need. Yes, you have the choice of getting in their way, but I feel we all understand what they have to do to be at the top of their profession. Each of us love this sport but who of you would go through the time and effort to be a pro fisherman...NO THANKS! I'll keep my day job! Is Arron a great fisherman.. you bet. Is he a cry baby.. you bet.. but I bet the guy that was a gentelman and let him have his spot will tell the story that Arron won 100k partially cause of his kindness.. Better to tell that story to your kids than Arron lost and maybe because I would not let him have the spot. Who would be the baby then? Fish on!!! Ed
