Thread: Tempers on the water

SlabSlayer77, I've been known to toss a rod into the water in younger days. Funny only bass fishing brought that out. Lol. Crappie fishing or growing older keeps all rods in boat these days.

Watching others have melt downs is sooo dang funny, I am sorry I can't help it. I remember watching Bassmaster's, when Mike Icconnelli had a good one years back, breaking, throwing poles around cussing, made a mistake during his tirade grabbing the US flag and pole on his boat, kneeing it, breaking the flag pole and throwing it and the flag on the deck of his boat. He Took some heat for that. I don't think he meant any disrespect to the flag... he was just seeing RED and not Red, White, N Blue at the time. Anybody remember seeing that? It was like the Happy Gilmore of Bass fishing. LOL
