Zaldain is a dork. Evidently, He thinks that he is above every local or anyone that is not an "Elite" pro. He always presented himself to me as unusual but after watching this, I think he's a spoiled brat.
I’ve had the opposite happen to me a few times so tourney guys can fuck all the way off. When I was like 16 even I had a couple of tourney guys pull right up to our family’s property and flip the weed line and dock WHILE I WAS STANDING ON IT FISHING. I waved and said “hey what’s up guys any luck ?” They were too cool and ignored me. I was so pissed I flipped a short arm spinnerbait into the weed line and caught a 3 lb bass and held it up to them before releasing it. One of the best days of my life fishing 😂
I live on Grand Lake, there's a tournament here every weekend, sometimes more than one. Even in the Winter. The pros and their wannabes act like they own the water. I've had them try to run me off my own dock. Their sense of entitlement is incredible.
Public waters period!!! chris is a professinal you cant act this way toward the public.. im sure those guys get maybe at best 2 days to go fishing ...chris is damn lucky he didnt get in trouble he shouldve in my opinion ...
😂😂😂 Great video! I think the "anything for clicks and views" mentality has actually caught up with the Zaldains. First the video with Bill Lowen and their attack on the rookies, then Traits attack on Trey Mckinney, now this. Did they not learn anything from Scott Martin? Don't post a video where you are breaking the rules. He knew Bass Live wasn't paying any attention to him. He was just trying to intimidate that poor local. Wow. Self important much?
I've tried to give the dude's podcast a try but can't get past the wife constantly interrupting when Chris (or a guest) is speaking. She has to be the focus the entire time. annoying doesn't even cover it. Watching this just confirms my thoughts about him.
I’m pretty sure his outburst is the straw that broke the camels back. Between how the rookies are treated, drama, and a bunch of other annoying B.S., I think I’m just done watching B.A.S.S. it’s turning into the Real Housewives of Bassmaster. If I wanted all the drama and whining I’d watch the WNBA.
That's so funny. In one of the bilge videos I am pretty sure they talked about The Real Housewives being one of Traits favorite shows. Maybe they're just trying to act that out. 😂😂
I quit following "Pro" fishing when FFS became the norm. Plus all the entitled, spoiled, and whining brats are also another reason I would rather watch a 16 yea old fishing on youtube. I got enough drama in my life already, I do not want my hobby bringing more drama to me. I got better things to do, like actually fishing, cleaning my reels, sharpening hooks or changing them out, or even pooping.
Terroristic threat is a stretch. While fishing tournaments you are always subject to John Q. on your spot, tubing, wake boarding etc. It's tough. Just move on to back ups. Life of an angler.
Ehh, not too much if a threat. Saying you're going to show uo at someone's job? All it takes is the right officer looking out for a local...in South Carolina. Remember the audience. 🤣
@@cerebraltackle a threat by definition is a communication of intent to inflict harm or loss on another person. He was absolutely in the wrong, just correcting you on your statement that he threatened someone. Also, why do you look high in your videos?
Dude those medicine pop ups was hilarious. What Zaldain doesn't get, clearly, is that it is actually part of his job to share the water with other anglers. So instead of bothering some guy at his job, just do yours Zal
Hey weekend fishermen, go to the lakes where they are having tournaments and follow Zaldain's boat around and fish all around him. What a little bit**! This happened to me years ago when I bass fished, I was in a cove fishing, (the only boat in the cove) when a tournament boat pulled into the cove. I started getting smart a** comments every time I caught a fish, when neither of the 2 on that boat were catching anything.
Chris needs to be sanctioned ….no place for this crap. I live in Lawton, Oklahoma….I will no longer consider doing business with your sponsors here in town ..
Felt like he has been having a rough year and hence touchy. But he is 17 in AOY points and on track for BC. But still, he is pretty touchy. If I was on a lake fishing around pros, I'd just move on down the line. You know Zaldain posted a video on this yesterday.
@@BassKat169 Are they REALLY the best? Really? This clown allowed a local to get into his head after he rolled up on him AND another boat. If he had the mental toughness of a fruit fly, he could have fished through it. I don't keep bass for harvest either. However, I'm smart enough not to bash someone who does.
@@BassKat169 there is no agenda. I'm reporting on a story that he published. Are you drinking? Stop spamming. If you have something intelligent to say, show it. Holy hell!
This is true. It was once a gentleman's sport. Now it's ego driven and hero worship. Just look at Randy. With the way he tears down those who build the local economies. The way je want to abolish ALL CO-ANGLERS. The way je thinks he's still a "pro" even though ANYONE can fish at his level? People swallow that s**t. Then they defend it. It's insane!
Im a blue collar dude who works 6 days a week... i love the elite series but i dont care who you are if i get to a spot first to fish i aint moving for you unless you're leading the tournament
Big zaldain fan but this extremely disappointing.This has been happening a lot lately with older veterans of sport a lot of them are struggling because of yep FFS and there just getting beat every tournament and the frustration has started showing big time !!
You're absolutely right. I think it's all mental. I think the biggest detriment when it comes to older Anglers and FFS is the mental game! I think just seeing it on someone else's boat gets into their head.
They have blamed it on FFS but John Cox is proving it can be done. Wonder what they are gonna say with Cliff Prince winning Wheeler. Oh wait, they won't because they know better.
Try to change the timing on this spot , when your blood pressure goes up you must sit down ,take five your in violation of having a good day,stop an rethink the intuitive part of fishing ,move to another place.😊make the negative energy work could be your on the wrong place to begin with.
If zaldain was there first then the other boaters was in the wrong.....I never pull up anywhere near where others are fishing out of respect....this video doesn't show enough before the interaction to make a call
@@cerebraltackle but did the other guy pull up on zaldain if so I'd be mad to.....these older guys are getting mad over these new guys that can only fish one way watching a tv screen...tournament fishing is going to be in trouble until these governing bodies limit the electronics anglers can use
@@mikel.4885 forward facing sonar is all mental. If these guys paid attention to what it was they were doing, they wouldn't have to worry about it. It's not what it's cracked up to be.

However, in this instance, the guy was well out behind Chris fishing away from the point. He wasn't even fishing the same area. Chris just got butthurt that he could see a boat in his view.
@@nomaddamon670 they were his own cameras. They weren't even Bass cameras. He did it because he thought it would be fun content for his channel. He thought everyone would be on his side. He's not that smart.
First, thank you! 😁 Second, yes, I desperately need to! I'm disabled and I've thrown my back out on top that. My wife just got home from a 12 day hospital stay. She was my caregiver. So...I'm wanting it off as bad as all of you fine people looking at it! Trust me, as soon as I physically can, I AM! 🤣
Seems like an out of context video to me. We don't know where it started, and we don't know the totality of circumstances. Further, I didn't hear any "threats" other than "I'm gonna come to your job and...". As a retired, LEO, I can confidently say, that's not a threat at all.
How is "I'm gonna come to your place of work and disrupt your paycheck " not a threat? I would hope that if he did show up a trespass charge would be in the works.
@@eatsquawkI understand what you’re saying, but I can assure you it doesn’t rise to the level of “terrorist threats” as prescribed by the penal code. So while it could be stretched to be considered a threatening comment, it doesn’t really rise to any sort of criminal threat, as there is no real intent or present ability to follow through with said “threat”. That’s my take on it.
@@cerebraltackle Well...a good cop fleshes out the details...which I did. That's all he published until about two hours ago, where you see the other guy making comments first. You also see him ignoring the other guy for about 30 minutes prior to that very minor exchange. YOU made the comment that it could be considered "terroristic threats". It's not. Stating "I'm going to come to your job" isn't a threat. It's not even real. Is it emotionally mature? No. It's as emotionally immature as someone making disparaging comments on youtube about why they are "glad" someone is no longer an LEO, when the person stating that, doesn't know what they don't know. The irony is strong here as I never personally attacked YOU, yet you felt it necessary to respond how you did. Was that appropriate? Particularly for someone who is sitting there dropping the "glass house" analogy? It's baffling that you don't see the folly in tripping over oneself to make a disparaging video/comments about someone like Zaldain...or anyone else you don't personally know. Then again, it tends to be the darkside of (anti) social media. Sad commentary really.
Yep! Actually, I had a friend that was in the vicinity of Trey when he won on Fork m. The kid paid zero mind to anyone else around him. Didn't get into his head one bit.
Randy Blockhead Blaukat is even worse about putting down " locals" and coanglers. He puts them down all the time and doesn't acknowledge they allow him to fish tournaments and get his usual 50th place finish
@@BassKat169 Yes, he has. He absolutely has! Look back to his video where he talked about the classic being on was stupid. He called all of the local officials, local anglers, tournament organizers, parks department...all of them stupid for EVEN BUILDING THE PARK THERE! He wants a local economy to die. People will lose their jobs.
@@BassKat169 no, he said exactly what I said he said. The fact you can't come to terms with it means that you're biased. I'm not pushing a narrative, I'm reporting facts. I'm sorry that my facts don't mix with your feelings. I say "feelings" because you're running around, spamming everywhere you can like you're his personal damage control.
What a jerk send that video to his sponsor..nobody should talk to anyone lime that .. he wants to go to berger king and hostel that guy at work .. what a joke
Really, anglers need to wake up to the fact that these national tournaments bring attention to their waters (enticed by local chamber of commerce's that are driven by greed, not what's good for the fisheries), which increases pressure and in all cases reduces the quality of fishing. Local anglers should protect their lakes and flood the water whenever there is a national tournament on their water and make these professional gamblers, that are screwing up their fisheries, unwelcome! Go get a real job and stfu!
The guy was upset the Chris was fishing that point and was yelling at him for 30 minutes prior to Zaldain going off on him, at some point you have to defend yourself and not coward away, I’m ok with the interaction glad he stood his ground.
@@cerebraltackle if someone calls your wife fat and ugly and you hit them, you broke the law, but just because you broke the law it doesn’t mean that it wasn’t justified , I’m glad Chris is not a little bitch. He did what he had to do.
Dude, you're not kidding. You won't catch me disagreeing with that! I don't know if you know, but I'm disabled AND my wife (who is my caregiver) just got out of being in the hospital for 12 days with an MS flare. Add to that the fact my back went out (slilped disk), and I'm in a rough way! 🤣 You have no idea how bad I want to shave! 🤣
@@cerebraltackle you're creating non content in as sensationalized a manor as possible, judging zaldaine for his mistreatment of another angler and then using 2 terms related to disabilities to demean another man. It's clear that Chris means it literally which means the threat isn't real or really a threat. This is an easy topic to talk about in a sensible manor and instead you show your ass like a tabloid tic toker. Youre almost as bad as Chris zaldaine
More like The Goobers. I will never and have never bought thier sh1t. Watched one of their videos a few years ago where they would trespass and cause chaos for likes and pure stupid meaness. If he is sponsored by those rejects, that's reason enough to avoid his "brand" altogether.
So how many other anglers have done the same thing that have been punished for it? I am not defending him but just saying for BASS to suddenly issues penalties out over this would be ridiculous.
@@cerebraltackle yes it wasn't as bad as Chris's. But I bet it happens more then we see. We just see more now because of all the cameras. I am not saying Chris was right. I just believe if any tournament is going to penalize for it they need to make it clear they will. How many videos are out there of people harassing anglers for fishing their Docks?
Go ahead come to my work place and find out. I have said again and again BAN ALL TOURNAMENTS. This is exactly why I CANNOT stand tournament fishing because it makes assholes.
I get why he was mad. He had been fishing that spot all week, tried to get to the bank to get away from the guy and the guy kept chirping about it….they both should have kept to themselves and kept fishing
@@dualthreatoutdoors He came in right over him and they were within casting distance of each other...when the local brought it up, Zaldain didn't dispute it.
@@cerebraltackle yes, but Zaldain tolled away from the other boat and not in front of where he was going. Once he was trolling away the local should have dropped it. I totally get it if Zaldain just trolled in front of his boat and started fishing
I go somewhere else if I roll up on two boats already already on a point. I don't even pull in. I sure don't roll up on top of them and act like an asshole.
Has anyone else wondered if the whole thing was a scam? Were the two dudes just holding the spot for him by hole sitting? Can anyone prove those two were actually fishing? The whole thing could have been an act!
I lived on Lake Murray and if you think Zaldain is the only rude tournament fisher ya'll are crazy. I despise tournament fishers because of people Like Zaldain and worse. I run into tournament "jackwagons" on a regular basis. Most of the tourney fishers are curteous but after a few like Zaldain it really changes your perspective on tournament fishers.
@@DH-tp9oe your lack of comprehension of the English language is what is hilarious. You clearly missed the part where I said he deserved a disqualification. But, you wear a helmet. I have to give you a little leeway. If only your father would have wore a condom.
I can tell by your eloquent response that you're not much on reading. I bet you didn't even read the rules. I bet you didn't even watch the video. It's okay, he's your man crush. I get it. 🤣
@@cerebraltackle don't worry dude can't handle looking at the nastiest beard I've ever seen...please do something so your worthlesscrap don't come up in my pristine feed.
Chris probably should have handled that a bit different BUT, the local should have just backed off and let Chris fish. Maybe he could have learned something. At least I would have done that. Just my opinion
Hard to figure what went wrong in recent decades but in the 1950's through probably 1980's or so, there was way less ridiculous anger and "issues" with society. Is/was it the left, the right, TV, movies, and music? How did common respect go away? A wise angler would concentrate on handling that which he or she has controll of and do their best at that, such as finding a different weed bed or flat. A good attitude is so important in competition. It allows you to perfrom near or at peak. This angry guy, I hope he isnt married.
Was never really a Zaldain fan however not a fan of this guys UA-cam channel either Zaldain did not threaten him with any harm and I’m going to have to agree with him on this subject Further more the commentator has probably never fished a tournament in his life. Zaldain did not break any rules and in fact is trying to make a living doing what he loves and some Joe blow don’t care. It’s hard enough in todays world to try to put together a winning bag then you have guys like this guy that has a full time job and has the whole lake to fish but instead makes it hard on guy doing his full time job of trying to catch a fish. The local guy is a complete jackass for that and you are the definition of a Karen yourself pal by putting your opinion against him and then the little skit at the end of this is the same thing you just said Zaldain was doing 🤦🏻♂️
You've had three comments on my channel and they've all been trolling. You're nothing but a teeny weeny little keyboard cowboy. While I appreciate the views, I do not appreciate having to babysit you. Maybe your mother weaned you too early, I don't know. At any rate, you're done insulting me. Unless you want to meet up in person and get put down, quit it. You're playing FAFO with the wrong one. I fished tournaments for 18 years before I become disabled. I never treated anyone like you or your hero does. Maybe Randy is more your speed. I'm sure he still has a teet available for you. Either way, I'm done with your childish ass.

@@eatsquawkI understand what you’re saying, but I can assure you it doesn’t rise to the level of “terrorist threats” as prescribed by the penal code. So while it could be stretched to be considered a threatening comment, it doesn’t really rise to any sort of criminal threat, as there is no real intent or present ability to follow through with said “threat”. That’s my take on it.
@@johnnyfountaine these days, you never know.
If you think it's "out of context", I'm glad you are no longer a LEO. This is all HE PUBLISHED.
@@cerebraltackle Well...a good cop fleshes out the details...which I did. That's all he published until about two hours ago, where you see the other guy making comments first. You also see him ignoring the other guy for about 30 minutes prior to that very minor exchange. YOU made the comment that it could be considered "terroristic threats". It's not. Stating "I'm going to come to your job" isn't a threat. It's not even real. Is it emotionally mature? No. It's as emotionally immature as someone making disparaging comments on youtube about why they are "glad" someone is no longer an LEO, when the person stating that, doesn't know what they don't know. The irony is strong here as I never personally attacked YOU, yet you felt it necessary to respond how you did. Was that appropriate? Particularly for someone who is sitting there dropping the "glass house" analogy? It's baffling that you don't see the folly in tripping over oneself to make a disparaging video/comments about someone like Zaldain...or anyone else you don't personally know. Then again, it tends to be the darkside of (anti) social media. Sad commentary really.
New name is Zalgoogan…..
AWESOME! 🤣
That's fantastic! Thats where zaldumass got his nerve to talk all that shit. googan squad been pumping him up !
Haha. Funny stuff!
Thank you! 😁
Zaldain is being a total jackass here
I got one question, would Trey McKinney ever act like this? I’m going to assume Trey would have actually been very polite to these guys.
Yep! Actually, I had a friend that was in the vicinity of Trey when he won on Fork m. The kid paid zero mind to anyone else around him. Didn't get into his head one bit.
No. Another arrogant young sngler
Randy Blockhead Blaukat is even worse about putting down " locals" and coanglers. He puts them down all the time and doesn't acknowledge they allow him to fish tournaments and get his usual 50th place finish
Exactly, this! ☝️💯
@@BassKat169 Yes, he has. He absolutely has! Look back to his video where he talked about the classic being on was stupid. He called all of the local officials, local anglers, tournament organizers, parks department...all of them stupid for EVEN BUILDING THE PARK THERE! He wants a local economy to die. People will lose their jobs.
@@BassKat169 no, he said exactly what I said he said. The fact you can't come to terms with it means that you're biased. I'm not pushing a narrative, I'm reporting facts. I'm sorry that my facts don't mix with your feelings. I say "feelings" because you're running around, spamming everywhere you can like you're his personal damage control.
I’ve ran into Randy on the water and he is as nice as can be in person. That’s all I have to say about that.
@@southmileangling Randy has shown how bad he is for the sport.
He doesnt own the lake. Get a real job like the rest of us.
What a jerk send that video to his sponsor..nobody should talk to anyone lime that .. he wants to go to berger king and hostel that guy at work .. what a joke
120 yards is maximum courtesy
Really, anglers need to wake up to the fact that these national tournaments bring attention to their waters (enticed by local chamber of commerce's that are driven by greed, not what's good for the fisheries), which increases pressure and in all cases reduces the quality of fishing. Local anglers should protect their lakes and flood the water whenever there is a national tournament on their water and make these professional gamblers, that are screwing up their fisheries, unwelcome! Go get a real job and stfu!
The guy was upset the Chris was fishing that point and was yelling at him for 30 minutes prior to Zaldain going off on him, at some point you have to defend yourself and not coward away, I’m ok with the interaction glad he stood his ground.
1) Where is this proof.
2) How does thus absolve him of C6 & C7?
@@cerebraltackle if someone calls your wife fat and ugly and you hit them, you broke the law, but just because you broke the law it doesn’t mean that it wasn’t justified , I’m glad Chris is not a little bitch. He did what he had to do.
First video and last one I will watch
@rebkaren
Waaaah, waaaah 😩 😭
Need a tissue?
Bye Felicia!
Doesn't matter...Trait still won't f yeah. 🤣
Arrogance pure arrogance. Nonsense from a professional angler. Another Icconelli
Like Ive said in the past....pro fishing is going to self destruct.
Or shave.
Dude, you're not kidding. You won't catch me disagreeing with that! I don't know if you know, but I'm disabled AND my wife (who is my caregiver) just got out of being in the hospital for 12 days with an MS flare. Add to that the fact my back went out (slilped disk), and I'm in a rough way! 🤣 You have no idea how bad I want to shave! 🤣
Whomever posted this video is the definition on a male Karen.
Well, you're 1 in a million. Everyone else clearly thinks Zaldain is the a-hole. So, I'll let the comment section deal with you. 🤣
Quick to judge, quick to anger
Slow to understand
Ignorance and prejudice
And fear, walk hand in hand
No threat was uttered are we adults lmao
I don't know if you're deaf or slow?
@@cerebraltackle you're creating non content in as sensationalized a manor as possible, judging zaldaine for his mistreatment of another angler and then using 2 terms related to disabilities to demean another man. It's clear that Chris means it literally which means the threat isn't real or really a threat. This is an easy topic to talk about in a sensible manor and instead you show your ass like a tabloid tic toker. Youre almost as bad as Chris zaldaine
he should be disqualified....sure his sponsors aren't happy either
One of them is Googan...I'm sure they're proud.
More like The Goobers. I will never and have never bought thier sh1t. Watched one of their videos a few years ago where they would trespass and cause chaos for likes and pure stupid meaness. If he is sponsored by those rejects, that's reason enough to avoid his "brand" altogether.
So how many other anglers have done the same thing that have been punished for it? I am not defending him but just saying for BASS to suddenly issues penalties out over this would be ridiculous.
Show me where it's been on video.
@@cerebraltackle Let me look because I've seen some videos on youtube of it happening
Anthony Gagliardi had one I am looking but God this UA-cam algorithm stuff.
@@timgallagher6529 with a fan?
@@cerebraltackle yes it wasn't as bad as Chris's. But I bet it happens more then we see. We just see more now because of all the cameras. I am not saying Chris was right. I just believe if any tournament is going to penalize for it they need to make it clear they will. How many videos are out there of people harassing anglers for fishing their Docks?
Go ahead come to my work place and find out. I have said again and again BAN ALL TOURNAMENTS. This is exactly why I CANNOT stand tournament fishing because it makes assholes.
You are filming this from you Mother's basement aren't you?
No, yours actually. I can't get her head out of my lap.
@@YankeeDoodle2 Is Trait jealous that you lust over her man child the way you do?
The only people who care about tournaments are the people in the tournaments. “Hey get off the trail I’m tournament hiking here!!”
I get why he was mad. He had been fishing that spot all week, tried to get to the bank to get away from the guy and the guy kept chirping about it….they both should have kept to themselves and kept fishing
The guy had a right to chirp, he was there first.
@@cerebraltackle yes but Zaldain was trolling towards the bank away from him. If Zaldain started casting at him I would totally get that.
@@dualthreatoutdoors He came in right over him and they were within casting distance of each other...when the local brought it up, Zaldain didn't dispute it.
@@cerebraltackle yes, but Zaldain tolled away from the other boat and not in front of where he was going. Once he was trolling away the local should have dropped it. I totally get it if Zaldain just trolled in front of his boat and started fishing
why cant we just fish somewhere else its easy to do lol
I go somewhere else if I roll up on two boats already already on a point. I don't even pull in. I sure don't roll up on top of them and act like an asshole.
Has anyone else wondered if the whole thing was a scam? Were the two dudes just holding the spot for him by hole sitting? Can anyone prove those two were actually fishing? The whole thing could have been an act!
I've actually spoken with someone who knows the guys, it's real.
Everyone is not puppets they could have showed him a little respect
They were not close to him.
I lived on Lake Murray and if you think Zaldain is the only rude tournament fisher ya'll are crazy. I despise tournament fishers because of people Like Zaldain and worse. I run into tournament "jackwagons" on a regular basis. Most of the tourney fishers are curteous but after a few like Zaldain it really changes your perspective on tournament fishers.
You yourself said most anglers are courteous. If because of a few you let it change your entire opinion, that's not on the tournament anglers.
You remind me of the dude off Toy Story that collects toys
I wouldn't know, I'm an adult. I don't go into movie theaters to watch kids movies. Kinda creepy. 😁🤣
Buddy what are doing starting this crap on here up yours
What is it, exactly, that I'm doing? He posted the video. The rules are public. What's your problem?
Ya they're def a little bit of the beginning missing here.
I posted it. Chris crapped the bed.
The amount of sucking up you do to TM is astounding. Dude breaks rules himself yet he's your poster child. Mind boggling actually.
@@DH-tp9oe your lack of comprehension of the English language is what is hilarious. You clearly missed the part where I said he deserved a disqualification. But, you wear a helmet. I have to give you a little leeway. If only your father would have wore a condom.
Chris acted like an ignorant Child and should be disqualified from the next tournament 100% wrong Classless Act!!!
What a stupid Video, Zaldain did nothing wrong.
I can tell by your eloquent response that you're not much on reading. I bet you didn't even read the rules. I bet you didn't even watch the video. It's okay, he's your man crush. I get it. 🤣
Oh be quiet trait. We know this is your burner. Go make sure Chris gets his house chores done.
Sounds maga to me.
@@Garminrules Politics of ANY kind aren't discussed here. You've trolled before. I'll point out that you're still watching.
@@cerebraltackle don't worry dude can't handle looking at the nastiest beard I've ever seen...please do something so your worthlesscrap don't come up in my pristine feed.

@@TheREVIEWGUY1-ip1wm apparently you don't know how GoPro cameras work as far as field of view is concerned.
JUST GET THE F OUT OF THIER WAY! THEY BRING SO MUCH MONEY TO YOUR COMMUNITY! ENJOY THEM
Nope. It's not a given. 2 boats were there first. Sorry.
Zero issue with Chris here. Find another lake or another spot when the elites roll into town
And you are in the extremely small minority.
Chris probably should have handled that a bit different BUT, the local should have just backed off and let Chris fish. Maybe he could have learned something. At least I would have done that. Just my opinion
If Chris was not there first, he's in the wrong. Period.
Hard to figure what went wrong in recent decades but in the 1950's through probably 1980's or so, there was way less ridiculous anger and "issues" with society. Is/was it the left, the right, TV, movies, and music? How did common respect go away?
A wise angler would concentrate on handling that which he or she has controll of and do their best at that, such as finding a different weed bed or flat.
A good attitude is so important in competition. It allows you to perfrom near or at peak. This angry guy, I hope he isnt married.
He is. She has a nickname in which, she's earned. Long story. So good to see you, friend!
@@cerebraltackle Keep the videos comming
@@cerebraltackle Any hint as to the nickname?
@@TheFishdoctor1952 it's the area between your boys and your bunghole. It also begins with a "t".
This is one of the many reasons tournament fishing should be banned!
No, banned is extreme. Don't be a Randy. 🤣
Was never really a Zaldain fan however not a fan of this guys UA-cam channel either
Zaldain did not threaten him with any harm and I’m going to have to agree with him on this subject
Further more the commentator has probably never fished a tournament in his life.
Zaldain did not break any rules and in fact is trying to make a living doing what he loves and some Joe blow don’t care. It’s hard enough in todays world to try to put together a winning bag then you have guys like this guy that has a full time job and has the whole lake to fish but instead makes it hard on guy doing his full time job of trying to catch a fish. The local guy is a complete jackass for that and you are the definition of a Karen yourself pal by putting your opinion against him and then the little skit at the end of this is the same thing you just said Zaldain was doing 🤦🏻♂️
You've had three comments on my channel and they've all been trolling. You're nothing but a teeny weeny little keyboard cowboy. While I appreciate the views, I do not appreciate having to babysit you. Maybe your mother weaned you too early, I don't know. At any rate, you're done insulting me. Unless you want to meet up in person and get put down, quit it. You're playing FAFO with the wrong one. I fished tournaments for 18 years before I become disabled. I never treated anyone like you or your hero does. Maybe Randy is more your speed. I'm sure he still has a teet available for you. Either way, I'm done with your childish ass.
Words. Bigdeal
