Breaking News: This Will Be KVD's Final Season As A Touring Bass Pro

 

Here is the video announcement.  It will be interesting to see what he does next. I wish him luck this year and in the future. KVD is the GOAT in Bass Pundit's mind.

Update: The video was taken down after being up for about an hour. I think it got released at the wrong time before he had the chance to hype up his big announcement.

Bass Zone On Facebook

As I wrote yesterday Bass Zone.com doesn't have a Facebook Page, but I learned they do have a Facebook Group.

I received a nice message on Facebook from Matt Pangrac who is one of the guys behind Bass Zone.com and Bass Talk Live

Here is some of what he told me about Bass Talk Live:

What we have tried to do is take the best features from “The BASS ZONE” and “BASS ZONE LIVE” radio programs and with the help of WebcastTV, create the first interactive show that allows fans to ask questions and call in toll-free each day during the hour-long program.

Basically, BTL allows fans of professional fishing to watch daily live broadcasts and get information as it happens – not the following day or three days after it happens.

Terry Brown of Wired2Fish actually has a segment every Tuesday on the Live BTL show called “Terry’s Tuesday Tidbits,” where he calls in and talks with the BTL hosts, and Kent Brown of Ultimate Bass Radio also joins the show every Friday to offer his West Coast perspective on tournament bass fishing.

Bass Talk Live wasn’t created to replace BASS ZONE’S “WIDE OPEN” programming that takes place on-location during the Elite Series events. Each weekday that we are in the home studio in Oklahoma, BTL will air live. When we are on the road covering the 2011 Elite Series season, WIDE OPEN will take the place of the Bass Talk Live show.

The goal here is to provide fans with the opportunity to watch LIVE programming with the latest information on a daily basis – not just once or twice a week.

I'm sure the Bass Talk Live show is good, but I have yet to see it. When I try to watch the archived shows I get a "Service Error" message in the player. Don't know if the problem is on my end or theirs. The website doesn't mention what you have to have software wise to see the show.

Out of the Loop (Not Really)

I'm chalking this one up to poor promotion and the fact that I don't pay much attention to Bass Zone.com
BTL or Bass Talk Live
If you want to know what it is all about Get Hook'd has the press release:
Z3 Media Offers New Experience for Anglers

I wonder if they sent the press release to BassFan.com and Wired2Fish and neither covered it because of the competition. Doesn't make sense as Wired2Fish has an add on the BassZone.com site.

Just checked and Basszone.com doesn't have a Facebook page.

Also just checked and BassFan.com doesn't either. Are you kidding me!!! My blog has a Facebook Page for goodness sakes.
