    Classic Locations……

    If they insist on this time of the year, come on Texas…….

    Throw the coin out there.

    Spring Classic. Texas. Rayburn. Fork. Bend.

    If it’s gonna be Spring, get south.

    Otherwise, make it a a true year end championship (summer/fall) and bring it north (Rainy, Fingers, Champlain, etc).

    They are always going to have the classic near a sizable metro area. Rayburn/Toledo won’t cut the mustard for that. Texas Classic will be near Dallas/Ft Worth or Conroe again..which was pushing it for travel to the weigh in.

    I love the Texas classic. Hell all the Texas tournaments are my favorite. Wish I could move down there.

    Well, out of 55 Classic anglers, 5 out of the top 25 and 1 that didn't make the cut caught limits.
    That's sad. Tough is one thing, but that was just plain brutal.

    Don’t worry, Texas will be back on the rotation in what… 2 years?


    Grand, Hartwell, Guntersville, Tenn River, somewhere in Texas, repeat.

    Agree on both, but for Texas, Toledo Bend.

    Weights were down a little, but it took 60 lbs to win this weekend’s tournament at Clear Lake. Just saying.

    That would be awesome but where could the weigh in/expo be held? How about the Delta with the weighin where the Kings play?

    What about Vegas? I’m not sure if there is enough regional fans but it’s an interesting thought.

    I would like to see them go back to Logan Martin like they did in the 90's.

    They set a new attendance record, so there is that problem. How many places can handle 169k visitors?

    Didn’t Ray Bob suck, when they went there and the attendance was “meh”?
