Bassmasters Classic and Canadian Television - nothing to see here!

Wow, another year and not chance to watch the Bassmasters Classic on TV. For us Canadians it seems just easier to load up the family and head south to watch this annual event! There is so many opinions on this but it seems to come down to the almighty dollar. There is not enough support in Canada to make airing this show worthwhile to Canadian TV stations. This is a sad state of affairs.

As a paying member of the Bass Anglers Sportsman Society it really upsets me that we don't have the kind of access as our American counterparts. Television coverage is even an old argument. Why not just have live streaming from a website to view the event. This does not even exist. For us north of the border we are left reading the results through various bloggers who are attending the prestigious event.

Sure, I will continue to be a member of BASS because of the camaraderie among friends here in Ontario. However, it is bad enough we can't fish for bass for 6 months, we can't even watch the bass fishing we want to!

Oh well, now I sit for another blogger or webmaster to tell me who won the Bassmasters Classic and by how much..not much nail bitting this year..again.
