Awesome write up for the entire event. It says a lot about the folks that are involved in the bass fishing community. Good people from the pros all the way down the the weekend warrior. I wish I could have made the trip up there or been a marshall, but my schedule just wouldn't allow it. Awesome post, but dang I bet it was a chilly ride! ditto, great writeup and pics

Awesome! Thanks for sharing....that had to be a pretty amazing experience, especially at the Classic! Every Marshall I talked to up there said they were having a great time, despite the weather, and would do it again.
That's so funny what you said about your BassTrak on Day 1. Marty is a very good friend of mine and we wrapped his boat this year so we were trying to follow him from our booth at the Expo. His location would show up but the weights showed zero...my stomach was in knots!! His wife came by after lunch, though, and said one of the first blogs of the day talked about him really catching them so we figured your computer must have been acting up.
What a great weigh-in that was!! Loved seeing him so pumped up and sitting near the top that day.
Thanks for sharing. Those will definitely be memories you'll have forever!

I talked to the volunteer coordinater at the expo Saturday. He and I fish the qualifiers together. Told me if he known I was there I would of got to marshal Saturday (I didn't sign up). There were a bunch of media that backed out at the last minute and they were scrambling to fill the spots.

Awesome story! I'm envious! Did Tracy use a spinning rod to get the jigs under the docks?

No Tracy would skip a jig all the way under the dock with a casting rod and baitcasting reel, honestly watching how these guys quickly adjusted during the day and not to get stuck on one thing is amazing.
