Fishing News: FLW exclusive premiere: ‘Reel Cast’ - FLW Outdoors
Is it just me or is the FLW coming on strong for 2011? Every time I check out FLW's website there is another announcement post about a sponsor or enhancement. Walmart, minn kota, Kellogg's, Attraxx, EverStar, live streams, Digital magazine with video embedded, podcasts, vodcasts, BFL weigh in coverage, expanded AOY's, expanded payouts, Laura Schara (okay so this isn't a win according to some), Forrest Wood Cup being recognized as event of the year.....Seriously the list goes on. It's down right impressive. Maybe all this is in response to the new ownership group for B.A.S.S and FLW seeing a window of opportunity to dominate during a time of change?
Are you paying attention B.A.S.S.? You are getting it handed to you in a big time way. If it wasn't for the Classic, which for me is still my favorite tournament, what other news would B.A.S.S have that would make similar splashes? Take a moment to visit each site, do you think I'm onto something or just on something? Bassmasteror FLW. Right on the home page of FLW Bass, huge banner announcing the "Live video coverage of FLW outdoor tournaments".
The Bass Pastor had to look through the comments section to find out the elites are streaming the classic weigh in outside of ESPN360. "Tucked away" was the exact term he used; Check it out here
The Bassmaster Elites is an awesome circuit with unreal anglers. I have to believe there has been some really news worthy events for them over the off season. Where is the new ownership group? What are a few of the things they have begun work on? Do we have to dig through the comments sections to find the news?
Anyway this is just my opinion and really what do I know anyway? Truth be told I have historically followed the elites more closely. I like the TV coverage more than FLW's. But it seems to me that the FLW has come ready to play and I've taken notice.
So who was baggin on Schara and what did they say? I think she will do great. Zona was already taken.
ReplyDeleteOh and I think BASS is kicking FLW's tail on Facebook since Angie Thompson was put in charge.
ReplyDeleteYour right about the facebook stuff, good point. BASS has twice as many people following it (18k to 9k). So I'll give that point to BASS. IMHO I still give the edge to FLW overall.
ReplyDeleteAs far as Shara, it was people on the comments sections on FLW and other websites. I personally am great with it. But nobody beats Zona for me but like you said, he's taken.
