If it's been a while, Al is the one wearing shades....
You may have heard this through the grapevine already, but Al Smith is back in bassin’ fishin’. We’re going to be rolling out some cool stuff, so be stayin’ tuned. Here’s some stuff from the official-type pressin’ release:
> Today Jay Kumar announced that Al Smith is once again part of the team.
> Al has had a long and successful career in the outdoors, having held positions with BASS, US Angler’s Choice, the Pennsylvania Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs and the National Wild Turkey Federation. He also was part of Jay’s former company, OutdoorsFan Media, where he grew the BassFan Army to be the biggest membership program in grassroots tournament bass fishing in just 12 months.
> “Al is, bar none, the best membership person in the fishing business,” Jay said. “He is highly regarded by the industry and fishermen, and I’m very glad to be working with him again.”
> Al said, “It is truly great to be working with Jay again. Jay and I share the same passion for grassroots bass fishermen, and we both are constantly looking for ways to make the sport more fun for weekend warriors.”
> “I’m very excited about the fact that we’re going to be rolling out things that no one’s ever seen before because no one’s ever done them before. They’ll be totally new and won’t compete with anything that’s already out there. It’s a great feeling to be setting the bar again.”
Yeah buddy!

My question is who caught that fish he is holding? It’s great to see Al back on a national forum, can we expect him to post and comment? I’ve known Al for a few years, bright guy. Here’s my question for him. What is it that we rarely see a so-called fishing All-Star’s ever take a position on most or even any fishing issue that doesn’t involve promotion of their sponsor? Up here in MN we have a Legislature that wants to re-write many of our fishing regulations and dismantle years of needed fish management programs. What is it that these experts who made a career from fishing don’t step up and make comments. A word or two from them would go a lot farther then a few comments from someone like me?
