For those of you who may be non-anglers and visiting the site for the first time, or for those of you who are just unfamiliar with tournament fishing let me introduce you to Mike Iaconelli. Considered the “Bad Boy” of fishing because of his screaming flare-ups and Happy Gilmore charisma, he is guaranteed to keep you awake throughout a day of fishing. Even if he isn’t catching them. Check out a short clip of Iaconelli “Going Ike” as they say.
Quite possibly the most passionate athlete I’ve ever seen. Let’s just hope he keeps his live-wells circulating!
Every sport has one but this guy must love what he does if I was caughting big fish like that i would probally be yelling to.
Man sometimes Ike makes all bass fisher people look like idiots….
That clip is hilarious!
Rich, I completely disagree. I think Iaconelli embodies the passion for this sport that the top athletes in any other sport possess. As a result, he reminds the purely recreational & average fisherman – such as myself – just how serious and competitive this stuff can be.
