RE: Balog on Team Series – I agree with everything Joe said. I really enjoyed the latest team event. Definitely the best format for TV. It was fun watching the in-boat interaction. Lots of team clubs and trails, so we can all relate to what's happening. Good stuff!
RE: Balog on Team Series – Another great article, Joe. I also enjoyed the format. You hit all the high points that make it a refreshing change from watching the pro series events.
RE: Balog on Team Series – Great points and totally agree.
I've been a critic of MLF for several years now, but between the new team format and their decisions around FFS, I will be watching it and following it much closer next year. I've been loyal to B.A.S.S., even through the split, but they have a serious leadership issue and have lost me as a fan.
RE: NPFL's ban of FFS – Thank you for protecting the integrity of competitive bass fishing. I will always be a fan and support the NPFL for keeping the greatest sport ever REAL.
RE: Balog on tackle shops – I fished against Yurko 30 years ago. He was a fish-catching machine. He used some kind of reels that I'd never seen to pitch his jigs. I used to laugh at how he put his rods on the deck for everyone to see with his lures wrapped in aluminum foil – just a little intimidation factor.
BassFan says: From Balog: That reel was an "underslung" Garcia 507. It had a cult-like following around Ohio for it's ability to deliver tiny jigs and worms into heavy cover on a stout rod.
