i don't think its fair to say that the newer generation has no respect for the guys who've been at it a long time. ima youngin and fish mostly with guys who are older than me and i'd like to think i have gained their respect. before i started fishing with them i would hike it down to SoCo by myself from franklin 3-4 times a week and fish my balls off, a lot of times for a skunking. i think if you put your time in and show a real appreciation and passion for the sport then you will earn respect.
