Pumped his fist? He rolled around on the front deck creaming like a
complete idiot, in a blatant show of feigned enthusiasm.

Seems like it was negative attention or at least most angles feel it
was..I didn't see all of Mann's Classic winning baits in the 2004 BPS
catalog, just the jig..Maybe he used a "proto" type like Denny Brauer
did a few years ago..
I have read that in person Mike I is a calm nice guy, I am going to give
him the benefit of the doubt, like it matter's..





I fish therefore I lie

The Mann's Swimming Worm was out and packaged as the "Winning BASS MASTER
CLASSIC" bait in early fall.Walmart had a display and sold out fairly
quick.Didn't seem too much different than any other worms on the market but he
gave it the exposure.As for Mikes reaction or action toward winning the
CLASSIC...GO FOR IT! Celebrate however you want because you are the top gun!

Rich,

Yeah, I guess that wasn't really my point, I think that is just who he is,
and I agree I can't stand the way he is, and hope I have a shot at competing
against him eventually.
I may have down played his reaction after months of being removed from the
classic and burning that issue of bassmasters.

Coming in late on the thread again... I noticed a few other anglers
who were pretty psyched about catching a good fish. One guy jumped up
and down and almost jumped on his rods. Menendez was "boo yah" ing,
Harold Allen had a big reaction without the noise. And that was the
big difference, the screaming that accompanied his celebration. Got
on my nerves. I do believe he was playing for the camera, he was
looking right at it.
They re-did the show, I noticed there was no mention of the shooting
incident or the guys who got chased off by locals. They didn't show
the clip of the guy in the air boat spraying an angler.
