Who Would You Want To Meet In The Hobby

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I never personally cared for Jeremy’s show as I believe the idea was taken from Larry Dahlberg’s The Hunt For Big Fish. His show was on for more than two decades in form or another. It was everything River Monsters was without all the manufactured mystery. As an avid fisherman I don’t want to watch Inspector Clouseau investigate anything and just want to see a huge fish stripping line.
Unfortunately I've only seen clips of Larry's show It must not have been available in my area. Of the few clips I did see I was impressed without a doubt!
 
I met Paul Loiselle probably 8-10 years back when he spoke at a at a NJAS auction, really a nice guy. Was sad to hear of his passing last year.
I feel like big rich from Ohio fish rescue seems like he'd be a good time

Never thought about that but the show did seem similar, when Jeremy came out a bunch of clowns followed the big difference w them was they didn’t fish Jeremy could and did, regardless of some of the places he fished….

Without a doubt, for me, the most interesting people in the hobby are on this forum. I've been most inspired by meeting neoprodigy neoprodigy , his setup was true /\/\onster and even the fanciest photos didn't capture the coolness and sophistication. And I had the pleasure to meet many other MFKers at the MFK Konventions, back in the day. I enjoyed dinner with Oddball Oddball , he's much less grumpy in reality, LOL. Seriously an awesome down-to-earth guy with unbelievable (!) experience. And I mean UNBELIEVABLE. Ordering a freshwater sawfish is the epitome of /\/\onster! I'd like to meet these two guys again!

I wished I had met G guppy before he passed way.

If i could pick anyone else to meet, it'd be R rallysman . He hasn't been around in a while but he has a great DIYer spirit when it comes to filtration. Hendre Hendre would be a cool guy to meet, lots of interesting hobbies like carnivorous plants. RD. RD. comes across as a really interesting guy to sit down with and meet and learn from him. He knows so much! duanes duanes as well, just to collect fish with him and then hang out on the rooftop of the Amaze Inn ! C Chicxulub would be really nice to meet in person, just to shake his hand and thank him for all he's done for our site. Egon Egon has a really nice built-in tank and has (had?) dats that he kept for almost two decades. That's dedication to true monsters.

There are so many more members I'd like to have a coffee with and chat and learn from them!

Thanks for the kind words! I still have 4 big Dats left, soon to be 17 years old. My oldest fish is a Synodontis angelicus named “Spot”. Its 26 years old now.
Any of you on this site want to visit my fish room/man cave, your welcome. I live in Tempe AZ. Just PM me and we can schedule a time. I just retired, my schedule is wide open.
Cheers all.

If I had to pick only one, it would be Viktor thebiggerthebetter thebiggerthebetter What Viktor has managed to do for all these years truly blows me away.

But as a reality show, it would be The Women of MFK - Past and Present.
That was part of the original question, right?
