here's my comment:

i was very disappointed to see espn has more or less dropped all of its fly fishing programming. it is understandable...bass fishing = big $$$ and espn must follow the revenue stream. that i get.

what i don't get is espn's show 'loudmouth bass'. there is no need for bass fisherman to denigrate fly fisherman. really, there is no need for any fisherman to denigrate another fisherman, period (assuming all are within the law in their practices and are using teh resource with respect). in a time when our natural resources are threatened and need our proactive protection, i am pretty disenheartened to see espn airing a show that promotes and encourages in-fighting and derision amongst the ranks of fisherman. in a time where we should be circling the wagons and banding together to fight to protect a resource we all enjoy using, 'loudmouth bass' does nothing but increase the divide between "different" types of fisherman.

i was disappointed but understood espn's previous decisions to drop fly fishing programs for bass programs. that comes down to economics (sort of like why a sports netwrok carries poker 24/7...gotta chase revenue!). however, espn's decision to air a program such as 'loudmouth bass' has me seriously re-evaluating my 'favorite network'.

something needs to be done, or you will be losing another viewer....
