If I were to go follow the pros on roberts Saturday what should I expect? Will the ramps be crowded? How many spectators on average on on the water?

I’m curious of a real estimate. Anyone here been to one before? If it’s hundreds I’m sure I don’t wanna go.

I would imagine that the classic in a big metro bass loving city like DFW will have more followers than you could count-Conroe was packed when it was there.

You should go out and count the boats and give us an accurate account so we know for next time.

Surely their isnt 100s of grown men dying at the chance to watch another grown man fish. Could be wrong.

No thanks. I didn’t expect anyone to know exactly how many will be there obviously. Just looking for a guess, not a sarcastic response.

Oh yea. Can’t wait lol. Hoping for multiple autographs. It’s an excuse for us to go on a booze cruise that’s all. That is if we even make the effort to go which is doubtful.

Go do gluteus maximus exercises by watching a bunch of guys(who didn’t pay retail for their rigs) flying through areas I idle through. “If you can’t see it it ain’t there”!

Why would you not just watch bassmaster live?, seriously people stay off the water. The podcast I was listening to today Reynolds was saying some guys were already planning to run timber in hopes to lose some of the floatillas.

With the high water and closed ramps I would bet that: Open ramps will be packed hours before safe light, lots of arguments trying to get launched, people leaving lights on while launching and plenty of dented trailers by days end. Also keep your head on a swivel for the crazy drivers that seem to think they are the only ones on the water that matter.

Better get there real early with only a couple of ramps open. Hope the spectator boats don't effect the outcome of the tournament.

Don't forget, some catalytic converters may go missing too.
