Not to date myself or anything, but fishing is different than when I was a kid. Back in the day, fishermen (and women) didn't wear suits covered with sponsor's logos, their boats weren't nearly as fast as today's, and I don't think I ever say them signing autographs.
On the Bassmaster site, angler Michael Iaconelli describes how the pros approach different water conditions: Guys who know how to research old maps and use Google Earth are the ones to watch. They’ll find little backwater places off the beaten path that are running clear and holding feeding bass. They’re also the ones who’ll be fishing out of small boats. This will not be an equal event or be wide open by any means. You’ll know real quick who’s in the hunt and who isn’t.
