Im going to be a Marshal in the Classic. I will attempt to give you guys updates on my experience. I just finished signing all the waivers etc. Basically if i get hurt or die its not their fault! LOL! Im guaranteed to get to ride with someone for 3 days. Wednesday the last practice day, Friday and Saturday. Theres a Marshal meeting on Thursday where they tell us what we can and cannot do. I'll do my best to share my experience. Let me know if you have questions i could ask the Pros.

That's pretty cool man. Have fun, and keep us posted. If you see a pontoon fool of idiots trying to get to close to your angler, it's not us....

Keep an eye out for the "prototype baits" that will be used.

I so wanted to do this but the youngest is graduating from college that weekend. Please take pictures and detailed notes to share. Maybe next time they're in town I get this privilege.

Good Questions
1. Line size and type - what, when and where..............With the pressure we are getting on these lake now, this has to be a measurable factor. On TV, I am hearing a lot of
braid whistling through the guides.........leaders or no leaders?
2. Spinning rods - seeing a lot of guys using spinning rods for even traditional "power fishing" techniques............what goes into that decision.....line size, lure size, etc.
Thanks for asking and have a BLAST

Could any BASS member sign up for marshall or was this an invitation only type deal like how they do TTBC/Texasfest whatever they call it?

Congrats, I wanted to do this as well but when they pushed back the dates from March they moved it to my wife’s birthday weekend and I’m taking her to Key West.
Needless to say I was a little bummed when I saw the news.

Any BASS member can sign up. It cost $500 for the Classic. So i figured Im paying $166 a day to watch some of the best in the world, seemed worth it to me!
