Does BASS pros think La is the best fishery?

I think they certainly like coming here, whether they think it's the best isn't really relevant...LA could stand to learn a thing or two from Texas

Have you been to cataouatche in the last 4 years?

Most la sportsman articles would have you think it is, but hackney and crew are filming shows in areas around it, not the lake itself

The last survey from BASS's top pros that I remember listed
1. Texas
2. Florida
3. Alabama

I doubt very seriously any of the major tours are interested in coming to Louisiana.

Yeah, well, except for last week.

This is pretty entertaining. Lots of dumb shite being thrown around.

TX, AL, & FL have more good fisheries than LA. However, LA has a disproportionate number of excellent venues for hosting professional tournaments.

Except for the ones that are interested in catching fish and making money from it. All the rest will steer clear of Louisiana.

It wasn't supposed to be taken literally, it supposed to be tongue and cheek. Perhaps I worded it poorly. There is always some kind of bullshite involved for the tournament directors and the juice is slowly becoming not worth the squeeze. After the Point A La Hache fiasco I was surprised to see bassmasters go back on their word and return to La.

Red River and Toldeo Bend? Yes

South Louisiana? No
Tournament rules typically restrict fishing private waters. Most of South Louisiana is Private Waterways.

Most of the one's we have talked with, 30-40 would have Toledo Bend in their top 5. BASS recently ranked Toledo Bend as #1 in the nation.

Those other states certainly are better overall fisheries as a whole.
