THW CLASSIC Day 1

[188Musky]

If nobody brings in a bag over 25 lbs today, I will lose all respect for professional bass fishermen.

Hackney getting it done old school.......

I love that they have cameras in boat 24, 42, 45 etc. Genius.

Sure is great watching Hackney flip all day. Beats watching scopers stare at screen and catch fish..... not

Really, the only difference between the two is the depth of the water.

Ouch for Hackney, he is getting smoked.

Watching guys flipping and pitching docks is about as boring as bass fishing watching gets. Can’t wait for the northern swing. Damn the ditch pickles.

So were bitching about flipping and then were bitching about FFS.


I guess we just want to bitch.

Facilities are a factor too. Classic Expo is right down the street from the BOK Center where they have the weigh-in. The ramp was rebuilt and expanded for the Classic, huge parking lot for spectators. It's a good venue for people that want to attend in person.

Facilities are the major factor. To host a Classic you have to have 100,000+ sq ft expo center, 15k+ seat arena, and a body of water within a reasonable driving distance from the arena and expo center.

Then add to that a Chamber of Commerce or other entity that will subsidize hosting it.

Narrows down locations really fast.

My wife, a retired school teacher, read a little content on here one day and told me this site reminded her of seventh graders

Better than watching someone with a fairy wand throwing a weenie worm.

Tell her we have never received such a fine compliment.

Here’s to feeling like a 13 year-old!

[BigFishSteve]

Does she know about shrinkage? Do you have a pool?

So they were suppose to know who was going to be leading on day 1? There are 10 cameras in boats; they will re-assess tonight and re-deploy.

[BigFishSteve]

Nice jersey. Why aren't you fishing?

Oh ouch, that was so hurtful my entire self-worth is now in jeopardy.

[BigFishSteve]

That was for the guy being interviewed at the Expo. But thanks.

[Mark Perry]

The crowds here at the Classic don't seem to mind that it's on Grand and in Tulsa. Been pretty impressive first day at the Expo.
