2011 Bassmasters Classic

[QUOTE=TeamHotShot;438609]where can i watch the classic since ESPN isn't carrying it this year?[/QUOTE]

What? What about the elite's? I hadn't heard that. Did espn not have enough time for all the poker, so they dropped bassmaster?

I didn't mean any disrespect. Everybody has thier opinons personally Im rootin for Gary Klein. I'm just saying that I don't believe that john crews has tamed the cal-delta after winning only one tournament on it. which he barley won. I'm saying the cal-delta is a different kind of monster. one min your a hero the next you zero.

And your right not all Delta's are created equal. I fished the mobile delta in 2007 they might as well drain that mud hole. Never been to the Louisiana delta but from everything I've seen its only barely better than mobile and nowhere close to California delta. with that being said I expected about 50-60 pounds to win there.

And as for Ike having a mental advantage most of the time his mental state is a disadvantage. don't get me wrong he is good at what he does but the spitting thing is getting old. Not to mention everything is a giant!!!!!!

[QUOTE=TeamHotShot;438609]where can i watch the classic since ESPN isn't carrying it this year?[/QUOTE] out door is what i have found out so far.

Well Roland may have learned something fishing the red tournaments, gotta hope he does well. 9 AOY's in 14 years, oosh.

Here is my five:

Greg Hackney - I think he has a shot to win it.
Gerald Swindle
Bill Lowen
Russ Lane
Stephen Browning

Just my guesses. Who is to know what this classic will bring. I think the fact that everything I read says that the delta is totally different will really make this an interesting classic. I think it is wide open for anybody to win.

I believe ESPN is still going to show the Elites and the Classic. I just dont think they are going to air the classic until the week after instead of the coverage the weekend of the Classic, I could be wrong but I swear I read that somewhere.

KEVIN WIRTH... he has about 5 or 6 top ten finishes....would like to see our home guy bring the title home.[IMG]http://www.fishin.com/forums2/images/icons/icon6.gif[/IMG]
