Super Bowl of fishing Expos
College World Series of Fishing.
Yes, someone is going to win. Against the best field?...Ha, don’t embarrass yourself in public by honestly stating that. There are some in the field that are on the level, but most are not. FACT
Weber. You and I both know folks that have qualified through the opens. Anyone who qualifies deserves to be at that level. Saying any different is belittling those that have made it. Also it's dumb There are some that belong as I clearly stated. If there wasn’t a spit, then the ones who would have qualified without the excessive additional openings are the ones that deserve the respect. The rest are seatfillers and your position doesn’t change mine, but that’s ok as following any pro fishing isn’t really my bag. But one thing I do know, when the cream is skimmed off, what is below is watered down. Look out up. If that was true ducket would be selling boats with little Timmy detailing them before they ship out.

Congrats Hank Cherry, so much emotion leading into the final morning of the Classic for him, not to mention Lester and his day 2 crown jewel of a boat dock in the back of his head. Say what you want about BASS, there isn't a MLF or FLW angler out there who wouldn't of traded places with Hank Sunday morning!

Very proud to have watched 50 years of the Bassmaster Classic. People complained about the first one at Lake Powell and every year thereafter. A big congratulations out to Hank Cheery.
The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything. Remember what He has done and remember that He is not done yet!-- GOD IS GOOD

Classic is and will always be the Superbowl of bass fishing for fans.
No place else can someone like Darold or a weekend guy go have a swing at his dream.
Just remember, most of those guys wouldn't be fishing the Elites if MLF hadn't expanded professional fishing, allowing a bunch of unknown hammers to take the next step up. It's good for the sport. Three tours now instead of two. Everyone wins, especially the fans. True story and if my mom did not marry dad I wouldn't be here either. But here I am none the less. Just so you know, it’s not the act of marriage that creates offspring. Schools these days may not be teaching it, but still true. Look it up.

for you guys saying these guys are not to the level that the ones that left, they are just like Jordan Lee And Ott Defoe coming in and kicking the old names arse. Its a different day with all the new technology. these young guys know how to use it. just like every other sport the old ones get kicked to the curb eventually.
Good Fishing.
