Roland Martin

Went to bass pro this afternoon and bumped into Terry Stewart who, along with his fishing partner Dr. Tonya Robertson, won the MCC tourney at Chotard last month. We were in the jig isle and along comes Roland. I introduce myself & proceed to tell him I enjoy watching fishing shows on TV, especially the "vs" network (one of his sponsors). Turns out he's a regular guy who loves telling fishing stories, seemed like he was glad I spoke to him. He was surprised to learn we know what planer boards are, thanks to yikess, and that we perch jerkers use SI/DI ff's too. If you run into him sometime, speak up.

Wow, Roland Martin in Pearl, MS? Was he lost or something. That's too neat. I had always pictured him as a snobby guy. Goes to show you never know about someone till you meet them.

A few of those guys might be snobs but the ones that I have been around were not. Heck....they put their pants on just like we do....one leg at a time.

Definitely not a snob, and told his stories like he really enjoyed it, very enthusiastic.

Yeh.....I was suprised when I met ScottV.....especially after all that stuff that SteveJ said about him, lmao

This is a nice fella as well.

Yep ole Creekslick is as good as they get!:D

That round faced fellow in the middle would give Jerry Clower a run for his money.

Yes....both creekslick and Wally Marshall are all right.

When he was on the tour he was a snob. I fished against him in the late 70's. I have talked to him several times since and he has mellowed. He's a nice guy.

I have met wally several times always a nice guy.

GeeWiz.....I'm shocked at yall putting your pants on one leg at a time, I put my pants on both legs at a time, I'm a real man, and very fast.

Maybe that's where my opinion came from. I remember your war stories about your BASS days.

They probably only have one big leg as , as in SKIRT.

<giggle> oh my........ good un'! ;)

I was fishing a BASS event on the Big O in south FLA and walked into a restraunt with my wife and daughter and there sat Roland with another pro and his wife. Roland made a big to do about my little girl when we walked past. I thought it was right nice of him to speak since he didn't have to as we were just walking by. I'm surprised he wasn't down at Okachobee for that slug fest of a tournament they had this past week. Guy that won had 106 lbs for 4 days 20 fish total. thats a 5+ pound average. New FLW tour record.

"Guy that won had 106 lbs for 4 days 20 fish total. thats a 5+ pound average. New FLW tour record."

Man that's some big crappie! LOL

"New FLW tour record."

I would think so, wow.

It makes you wonder why FLW runs a green trout and wildeye tournament trail but not a crappie trail. Maybe one day they will get on board.
