Thread: What makes a Pro

Just drink another brew and let it slide of your back like water off a duck's back. Joe they will not let you rest. I understand everyone has favorite method of fishing. They ripped me for talking about a certain type of fishing that I quit years ago as it injured and killed too many fish. Did not make it clear or they misunderstood my point. The top fishermen usually catch no matter the method they use. The rest will catch more using that method but i'm concerned it may hurt some fisheries. There are lots of days if I would backslide I could catch more fish. I fish for the love of the sport not just to fill the boat by any means.

You guys are getting off topic again

Humm monkey milk and weed I guess.
Thought I was a pro until saturaday,first time ever skunking my self and I know the lake good enough I can call my cast.
I'm a professional.

You Guys are all Pros in my eyes Brothers on this site especially if your being helpful to others, posting pics of your catches, and participateing in the good of the site...Your a Pro to me. I think there allot of Pros on here they just wont admit it for whatever reason. So don't worry about your income and turn Pro and be as professional as you can about catching crappie, helpful to others to learn how to fish and be thankful for what you have earned or was given because of your profession in Crappie Fishing. Amen.

All you have to have to be a pro is a entry fee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There you go JW. I just thought I was a Pro. Gives me something to look forward to one day.

Buy a boat from ME, get all the latest greatest electronics, buy a fancy TM with the best you can buy batteries, get a few sponsors to give you some tackle and a sticker for your boat, pay your entry fee, and post pictures of EVERY fish you catch. You are now a Pro, IF you can make a living from your investment. If you lose money like most of us do, then go to your favorite lake, catch 500 dinks, and now you're a great fisherman. If you only catch a limit once in a while from your favorite lake but consistently catch a few, then you're a good fisherman. If you can't catch fish in your favorite lake, then you're like me---a wanna be fisherman. Lol

What are you?
