Ok so you have an issue with Angling pro's who make a living and looking like a billboard well they have a right to look the part. When you earn as much money at doing something like these guys do you can look the part. It's the glitter boat and nascar suit that helps earn the money, these shows are there to promote the sport and manufacturers that provide us with all of the tools that we need to be able to catch fish. i salute the pro's that give us the roadway to better fishing of all kinds. as far as what you do with the fish you chuck to coons and bears that is your choice. Enjoy the sport of catching fish. what ever kind you go for
