Rangerphil reply :
Randall tharpe just blew his lower unit! They said best case he will be fishing again by 1:00!
Tartan34 reply :
He thinks he is only 30 minutes out from being back on the water at this time...
slonezp reply :
He sounds pretty calm and collected considering the circumstances
Tartan34 reply :
And now he is back on the water....amazing that they changed his lower unit out so quickly.

I thought they mentioned the powerhead as well
lmoore reply :
Is it just me or is the Bass Trakk useless this year? I was paying attention to Gary Klein yesterday and it showed him most of the day with 4 or 5 fish in the lievwell...weighed in 1. then today I see they show he and several others without a limit yet having culled keeper sized fish.
MarkH024 reply :
Bass Trakk is based off what the marshals report in. Sometimes they can't be reached by cellphone or whatever communication they use. So it only gets updated as the folks in the War room receive info. Everything is tentative, and nothing is confirmed numbers. It's still better than sitting here thinking about who has caught what. Over all, it's pretty darn close every Elite tournament I've watched via bassmaster.com.
The actual boat positioning wont be broadcasted until the final day of the tournament by the anglers request this year. That I understand completely.
gripnrip reply :
Basstrack caused a big problem last year with boat traffic. 80-100 boats on some of the big name anglers everyday. People knew exactly the area they were and although people weren't to intrusive, there was tons of boat traffic that could have IMO hampered the bite. Grand can be a tough lake to fish.
gripnrip reply :
Also, I just watched EE catch a nice fish on the war room TV. He was using a bladed jig or "chatterbait" style jig. Just a useful little tidbit for all the guys on here that asked about this bait. How and when to use it!
jhoffman reply :
I think a chatterbait is a 100% wildcard, its like a spinnerbait on drugs.

Yes sir. I'd be slow rolling a spinnerbait at best. Or slow roll a hard head.
Rangerphil reply :
Don't miss the weigh in! Somebody has a sack a huge bag. For guys that are not watching I don't want to spoil it!

With all the grass it would be stupid to not fish a chatterbait. Awesome baits and simply catch fish. Ignore the orginal zman they break. Go with the D&m version.
Rangerphil reply :
Love this! All the coverage is awesome really enjoying the classic again this year!
slonezp reply :
I think the amish look jinxed Ike wah wah wahhhhhhh
Rangerphil reply :
Told you! 32 1/2 pounds!!!
gripnrip reply :
G-Man just went there! 
I'm an even bigger fan of his now!
Bassintheweeds reply :
Gman is great. Why is he not on MLF?
I'm really pulling for Paul mueller now.it would be incredible to see a nation spot win. Plus I Saw him win the eastern divisional. 
Tartan34 reply :
Hard to believe KVD didn't make the top 25
Jrob78 reply :
EE by one ounce. It doesn't get any better than that. Tomorrow is going to be awesome.

Honestly there are a bunch of anglers deserving to be in an MLF event. It is only set up with a 24 angler field. Hopefully in the near future we'll see more than we have. I know the MLF this year will have an all new field.
Bassintheweeds reply :
I think MLF should go just off personality more than anything. Would make for much better tv
I don't find it hard to believe about kvd he hasn't had that good of a year. Never made a top 12 this year...
E squared won't win it though. My prediction anyway.

Yeah he did! That was classic G Man at the Classic! I'm an even bigger fan fan of his now too. I really like the emphasis he put on being a great winner AND a gracious loser.

Really is hard to believe. Has to sting to coming in 26th one spot out of the cut.

I watch it to see fish caught in a cool new tournament format. If you like drama or comedy, they have channels for that. I won't watch it in a fishing or hunting show. Just my 2 cents.
Rangerphil reply :
Should be a great finish today. The top 5 or 6 have a great shot at winning! Paul muller would be great I watch some of his you tube videos very good information!

Yeah, just terrible. He only won MLF, and was 3rd for B.A.S.S. AOY. The bum ought to hang it up, it's clearly passed him by.
A-Jay reply :
Randy Howell just made a big move all the way to the top of the leaderboard !
Boom.

Funny you say this! Squirrel interviewed a spectator at the takeout yesterday. I don't know if you seen it or not. He was kind of acting like KVD wasn't anything and he taught him what he knows. The guy at first looked at him like he was crazy. Then went along with it. Man I laughed my tail off! Anyways, you gotta roll eyes at the haters.
A-Jay reply :
BR member "Paul Mueller" is currently in second place on the final day of the Classic ~
It's not even close to being over yet.

I heard that too -
He may have just lost his chance to win when his line broke . . . .

KVD is headed for the war room for an interview
gripnrip reply :
Howell would give MLF a run today! He's caught almost 70 pounds worth today. Close to 30 today!
