The biggest Red Flag was when he suggested to viewers not to call RAPP when they see people fishing illegally because he despised "rats".

that could be a red flag about more than one thing.

What some of the commenters were saying was far from constructive criticism, well beyond the hate boundary. That's just unfair to the guy who is actually trying to be helpful to others.


The hate speech sucks, I was trying to be as constructive as possible, but he still deleted everything. He too posted some pretty racist ignorant comments on Rod's YouTube page prior to starting his own. But two wrongs don't make a right.

Hm... I see. Well I hope Ken takes this as an opportunity to improve, after all this is what we are here for. Though well meaning comments will go a long way in helping an individual see where one might improve.

I think it's been pointed out already but all this attention actually helps Ken. Think of all the extra views he gets on you tube... that could turn into $ for him. Some people will actually take his advice and there'll be more of the type of angler some of you seem to despise. They'll watch every report he posts for is 'tips'. Could be more $ for him. Get over it - get on with your life.

I used to be in the YouTube game and made money making videos. He will make absolutely nothing with the amount of views / subscribers he has. I would say around $0.10 per video. Giving him views really doesn't do much. YouTube pays out depending on how many clicks you get on the advertisements in the video. There is a minimum payout of $100 so without a doubt he has not reached that. So as of right now I can say that he has not gained anything.

I believe that the only reason why he continues is because of the likes / dislikes. He still gets around 50- 50 ratio of likes to dislikes. If you all want him to stop making videos what you have to do is get a large ratio of dislikes to likes. He keeps making videos because he is trying to satisfy the half of his audience. If he realizes that 50 people dislike his video while only 10 like it he might get it through his thick skull that he is doing something wrong.

Would have been nice to see her get a scare and take a solid dunking.
