We were watching Jeff Sprague moving out of an area close to the end. I commented on how much bird poop was on his outboard when he ran up on top of a tree! My wife said he just about turned it over!

I watched one of the MLF guys run all the way back to Magee Bay today. I have never seen a boat in 25 years fishing there, run to the back there at full throttle. Crazy!!! i just wish I could do it. He hugged the west side and was running wide open all the way out to the boat lane.

I run to the back of M'Gee, but not on the south side by the boat houses. Saw someone running that gauntlet on Saturday.

What kind of waiver must those marshalls and camera guys have to sign for accepting those risks?!?!?!

Never seen a boat wreck since they started doing this live stuff in 2015, sounds like next 2 day good chance at it.

The odds of getting killed in a bass boat crash involving 1 boat are very small. It's their livelihood and they are adults that are making choices to advance themselves within their profession.
We have enough damn drama these days.

Saw several guys run passed the cove north of Hideaway Harbor in Little Caney. Too sketchy for me.

I took a video on my phone. I was under the second power line in Birch and heard a boat on pad...I hear a tick...more running and another tick...guy ran to the very very back of birch. Not sure which pro it was but what in the world. Jack plate was sky high and it was throwing a pretty wild tail.

Yeah, there were a few shots where I saw them on plane and I knew I've run that area at idle and bumped a few stumps. I guess when you do this for a living you learn to trust your driving ability more.

I watched him running around up in oil well today on live and was cringing the whole time. I saw him jumping on pad there at the end! Crazy! I can't NOT hit a stump when I'm in there and idling.

I asked a flw guy about how they never seem to hit anything on these lakes. He told me a story about the Arkansas River where he tore up 3 lower units in practice and the service truck ran out of replacements. They are human, somewhat.
