Oh boy, finally...congrats to Skeet!
Cali-boy! I love it!
He did a great job. Now on to the important race, AOY.
Listening to him talk you can really tell how much it means to him, even more than just the money or the prestige. Congrats Skeet

X2, can't wait for the vedio.
He deserves it. Way to go SKEET!
Congrats to Skeet!
CONGRATS TO YA SKEET! You earned it!
Skeet came so close in the past.
He and Ike make a wonderful one-two punch for the Classic.
Glad he won, even thought I was pulling for Ike.
Congrats Skeet Reese. You have solidified your dreams. I wish nothing but the best for you and your family. God Bless- and Way to go!!!!!
Congrats Skeet!
The guy is a little flashy for me, but I like that he won it. I like seeing the consistant guys get it. It would have been a nice cindarella story if Fralic one it, but I hate cindarella stoies. To me it says anyone can do it. I know he was in the 51 who made it there, but I like a big name winner. To me that shows fishing is less about luck and more about ability.
Thank you Skeet for bringing the trophy to California. This just proves that a Bass is a Bass anywhere you go.
I like Skeet winning. Seems odd seeing him with a buzz cut though. I bet Abu reels sell real well this year too.
Skeet totally deserves it!! Can't wait for the video to air.
Go Skeet! No Cal dominats!
GO NO CAL SKEET REECE!
I am so stoked for Skeet!!!! Awesome Classic!!!!!
California- this fish is for you !!!
Exciting finish, too bad ESPN did not place enough value on this to make it live.
I read Skeet was throwing a 3/8oz LC spinnerbait and a Berkley Crazy Legs Chigger Craw. What else was he throwing? How about Ike?
Congrats to Skeet! Well deserved and greatly appreciated. He will be a great ambassador for BASS.
Congratulations to Skeet. I was pulling for my man from Missouri, Snowden. (Have to root for the locals. ) Skeet has definitely been a consistent performer and it is nice to see him put this last feather in his cap.
#1 & #2 are very good for the sport!

I'm not sure what else Skeet was throwing but Ike was pitchin' black/red flake tubes texas rigged.
Congratulations to skeet Reese!!!
I had IKE, but if he couldn't grab it, then I can't think of a better guy then Skeet!!!
ajr

Must be a stock-car driver...
He dresses like a stock car driver...minus the faux-hawk!!
Do any of you know what "Skeet" means in slang (it was also in a song by Lil' John)?? If you do, you would find this thread very funny!!!!

Agreed. Was pulling for Ike, but both of them can take the sport further into mainstream sports america by their market appeal.
Bass Dude--I never thought of that--Put it together "skeet" and Cali--like toast and Jelly
Congrats Skeet--too bad for Fralic (sp?)--all he needed was 16lbs. after catching 19 each day, he fell off the third day.
And Ike did too much Fish management and left a few lbs behind the first 2 days. He was aiming for 15-18 each day then hammer them the third (which he did). Maybe he should have been more aggressive the 2nd day. Its all hindsight though
Skeet earned it and has been consistent the last few years.
He has some kind of special fishing powers. He was in 10 th place then came in second in last day. How skilled is that, all he needed to do was focus. Mike Ike is real dangerous for sure.
SKEET REESE THE CHAMPION IN BASS FISHING WORLD FOR LIFE!
I thought it was funny that Skeet didn't name his sponsors--instead he said "you know who they are"
Congratulations Skeet!!! I was coming out of my chair on the last Hawg he brought in. It looked like he may not get it in the boat!
QuoteI thought it was funny that Skeet didn't name his sponsors--instead he said "you know who they are"
I thought I heard him mention Biosonix as one of his sponsors? Didn't BASS ban Biosonix back when KVD went on that streak a few years back? Or was that just a rumor they were going to ban it?

That was pretty awesome ;D
Great Job Skeet!
