Like everything else that "PRO"applies too. If you get paid to do it and you enjoy it than your a pro. I don't know if I would want to be a fishing pro though? Alot of time away from friends and family. Makes a fun hobby work also. No fish = No paycheck (sometimes).

I figure it just means if you are a expert at it. I don't figure that you have to be paid for it

My definition: you're a PRO if someone other than yourself gave you the title!  ;)

someone that is ......

"PRO" active in the sport of fishing to me is a pro.  The guy that can go out and fish all day and not catch anything and feel like he's a winner, thats a pro.  But the guy that will take some time out of his busy schedule to take a couple kids out fishing would qualify also, to me that is.  Who of us would really want to be a "PRO" and add all that pressure to an otherwise enjoyable day on the water??

Been there, done that, good success but will never do it again. More fun teaching kids clinics and taking them out.

I think the pro anglers hang around on downtown street corners.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

This is not word for word,  or maybe it is,  "The real genius is the guy that gets paid to go fihing!"  I love that commercial,  even though it comes from the enemy.  Any problems with the last,  ask me about it in the Chat Room.

I think is meant for the more serious anglers who like the competion part of the fishing world.
Did I just write that?

That's only because the lakes are pressured so dam* hard. Normally, they bag em' I'm sure.

I have experience with lakes that are hit hard, and let me tell you, fishing is TOUGH when you are nearly shoulder to shoulder with fisherman in a bass lake.
