Bassmaster Elite-Sabine River....Day 1

[basshammerwannabe]

what time will weigh in really start, says 7 minutes

Put me in the category of “I like it when they struggle or have to scramble and scrounge for bites”….


Some of y’all say y’all aren’t interested in watching them catch small fish…. I think it gets old watching them catch 10 pounders and 30 pound bags…. Maybe because it’s relatable to me…. The style of fishing on that system is exactly what I fish… even though I’m 200 miles (give or take) across Louisiana, it’s all super similar, almost identical to what I fish….and a 4 pounder here is huge…

Reminds me of the Ohio River. Its not fun to fish and it sure as hell isn't fun to watch.

I’m a BASS Homer, but it’s ridiculous that they return to the crappy Sabine over and over. There are so many great bodies of water that they ignore in favor of the craphole location they know.

[BigFishSteve]

Don’t count out Gerald. He’s only 6# out of the top 10

I live here and i agree. There are much better river systems to visit than here.

But do those river systems have chambers of commerce that pay BASS to come and also hold festivals at the same time so BASS can goose their attendance numbers?

Just too ironic Kyota loves using tech to win tournaments, but can't bother getting an app to translate for him. I'm surprised his sponsors don't force him to use one. How can he sell products when he can't talk about them? The only skill he has is scoping.

You seem like a jealous, bitter person or for some reason you have an issue with Kyoya personally. I myself have never met Kyoya and I'll bet you haven't either. He seems like he is more introverted than, say Takumi Ito, lol but the guy loves to compete. And for you to assume the only skill Kyoya has is scoping, I will bet there are plenty of pros (and amateurs) who would offer him big money to have him teach them how to 'scope' like he can.

The only guarantee is that it will not start when the website says it will.

2 anglers, both said they love it there.. unless BASS has a gun to their head to say it

You're not going to convince this pouty bunch of "anglers". I guess it's a regional thing but this is my favorite one of the year. IDK why guys get so mad that there favorite angler has to squirm and make clutch decisions to compete and catch fish. Is there some bassmaster rule that says every tourney has to be a heavyweight slam? This is a great venue due to it's vastness and diversity. I'm not here to say it's the best bass fishing around.

I’d like to see them go to the mobile delta…. I don’t know why but I’ve always been intrigued by that place… I’ve never fished it…. Map studied it a lot tho…

Wow! Hackney, Swindle, and Christie without a limit.

Yup.. why i dont bet... Christie said he had a "pond" in a guys field but couldnt get to it due to logs blocking it.. didnt have back up plan

[Loll1121]

Wow
BP with no fish

[jbassman87]

BP with a ZERO See it does happen to the best of us.

[basshammerwannabe]

[Loll1121]

did he come across stage? i was listening .. never heard his name but didnt hear every one

no he did not

[basshammerwannabe]

no he did not

wonder if he didnt make it back?

[Loll1121]

wonder if he didnt make it back?

I was thinking that or he got stuck somewhere. Excited to watch Schlapper tomorrow. Said he has a spot to himself that’s loaded

[Loll1121]

Schlapper, Blaylock, Taku, Przekurat, Hammner and Milliken with cameras tomorrow

curious if this group has spots to themselves or if they are fishing the group where 90% of the field is
