Central Bassman Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 thanks Dietz... From looking at the results im kind shocked that more ppl would want to win anlger of the year then the classic!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Im not.I voted for AOY. I feel that your a better fisherman if you win that becuase its a process, not just a succesful tournament!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Central Bassman Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 thats a good point... But ITS THE CLASSIC!!! You would be set for life and i think you would get more press out if it world wide!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 I guess it depends on if you are doing it for the money or not. If its all about the money? Then win the classic play the sponsor game and make a load of moolah... You have to be good to get to the classic.. and you have to be good to win the classic, but you can catch a bit of luck, and win it... I dont think you can catch a bit of luck and win AOY... thats skill... I would want them all!.. LOL.. and win the FM tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st.crioxfishin Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Haha @ Deitz... I was thinking the same thing before I saw your post. It was truly an honor last year, theres a lot of good sticks that frequent this forum, and it will be hard for us to defend the title! . Besides that I'd say angler of the year for BASS.

Deitz Dittrich Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 I'm gunning for you this year Bob.. you guys put on a heck of a show last year on Forest! That was awesome.. and a ton of fun to boot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikeslayer Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I think if I was chasing money and sponsorsI would want to win a classic because it is the daddy of all torneys and it will make anyones career however i think you would probably be more respected byyour peers for winning an AOY however me and my little time tourney career I would just love to win an fm tourney. ike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookincalifornia Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 if i won the classic, i could die a happy man. however, i feel that AOY gets you the respect from your peers. i would rather have rick clunn think i'm a good fisherman than joe sixpack watching espn in two weeks. speaking of which, can't wait till the classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Esboldt Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I'll say other. Anytime I can beat Deitz is like winning the Classic. In all reality, the one I want to win most is the next one I fish. I don't really care if it's for $10 or $10000. I don't really like finishing 2nd. That's just first loser.

grab the net Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Classic, don't even have to think about it. Super bowl of all tournaments. Sponsors, money, history, first guy from MN to win it. AOY looks nice on your resume, but AOY with no Classic win, just does not put you on the same shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

friendlyfisher Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 To me its easily the CLSSIC, I know what you guys say buy AOY having to have a complete year and all. But in my opinion, in order to make the classic you have to be in the top 50 already. And to me just making the top 50 is a very good season. So having said that, the classic would be the icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellaBass Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Personal Satisfaction & Peer respect, I would take the AOY Fame, take the Classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friendlyfisher Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 That looks like two answers to the question Hella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikeslayer Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 my answer was 2 answers as well. It really does depend on what your motivation is. I know that once a man has money and doesn't have respect as the best at what he does he could bring in 7 digits a day and still wouldn't be happy. A man must conquer his task to the fullest.ike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikeslayer Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 So i wonder if we started a poll that asked, "What do you think is more important to the pro anglers" if we wouldn't have more people saying aOY. just interesting. I think, as someone stated earlier, we being joe six pack would love to win the classic but i would willing to bet guys really strive for AOY. Just my thoughts.ike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friendlyfisher Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I would look at it like it is asked. Which "one" would you rather win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daze Off Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 If I was a pro angler I would go for the FLW AOY for one reason - BENJAMINS - if you finished high enough in enough FLW events to win AOY the sponsors would not really matter because the payouts are so much bigger on that circuit.And, if I had a even a million $$$ I would not have to work ever again which is the primary goal....Fame and glory are awesome but, like the movie says, "Show me the MONEY" LOLDaze Off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassphish2005 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Classic hands downI bet Roland Martin would trade all of his AOY titles for a Classic win????Does anyone think that Rick Clunn would trade a single Classic win for anything else?
