IDK didn't find an answer anywhere on their site or facebook page, weigh in just wrapped up and Rusty Salewske leads with just under 12 lbs, not sure what any of the bigger names had but they're not in the top ten, final day tomorrow. Side note watching some of the events facebook vids sounds like Aaron Martens really needs our prayers, he is a 3 time winner of this event

The entire US open thing is a CLUSTER. We will don't know what days are official practice days etc etc. Last I heard someone messaged them and the person on the chat said Monday and Tuesday are official practice days then the tournament is Friday-Sunday. I don't know what the hell we are suppose to do for the other two days. You can tell they really through this thing together.

Are you talking about the bass pro not so open or the tournament going on at lake mead, the US Open?

I think he is talking about the Johnny Morris one,the real US Open always takes place Monday to Wednesday.

So the "real" U.S. Open put on by WON Bass that is currently being held at Lake Mead was forced to alter their weigh in due to the extremely low lake level of Mead. There is literally only 1 actual ramp available for them to use. So to make it as efficient as possible and still be able to have the event they are holding an on the water weigh in. My hats off to the TD Billy Egan for working through a ton of logistics to be able to continue to hold one of the more prestigious events in the sport.

When I lived in Vegas, it was a cool event to watch. It's a challenging lake. I always wanted to fish the open. It would be an entirely new lake now. I had some good areas that are way dry at the moment.

Best I can tell, Roy Hawk won. That’s going off comments on their live feed on Facebook.
