Depends on how fast the barge is going, but typically they don't throw huge wakes. Just slow down and go over them at about a 45 degree angle.

Check out these rigs: http://www.ztsllc.com/pro_staff.php Note that one of them belongs to a WBT pro too.

Curious... does anyone who posted a negative comment actually own one of these lures, or are you just spreading hearsay? I don't mean to sound like I'm attacking anyone, but it appears to me that the swimbait crowd immediately dismisses any bait that doesn't cost a small fortune. So I'm wondering if anyone has had any first-hand experience with these lures, or are passing along rumors, or are they simply making judgements based on the price. Educate me please.

The scary part is when they learn how to talk!

The deep diver (first pic) isn't black/blue, which he didn't have success with during practice, but the shallow diver is black/blue (second pic). That's the one he used during the Classic.

Yes, he was using the Laser Lure during practice. Yes, he caught fish on them. But just in case you think I'm trying to cover for him because we're friends, here's proof. I took these pictures while out on his boat the last day of practice. I have video of him catching fish on them too. I will post that footage at a later date.

That's awesome man. Congrats!

Long Mike is handling the room arrangements, if anyone still needs a roommate. Thanks Mike!

Yes, he was using the Laser Lure during practice. Yes, he was using Steez reels along with a plethora of Diawa rods. And yes, he was using a black/blue jig. But just in case you think I'm trying to cover for him because we're friends, here's proof. I took these pictures while out on his boat the last day of practice.

Check with Alpster. He's keeping a list.

Man! That final day was crazy! Lot's of things happening - very exciting. We were up WAY late last night, and got only 3 hrs of sleep. So I apologize for posting these late. Hope the wait was worth it! Videos to come soon! We have some killer footage!

g'night

Yes, that's Gene.

Here's a new video with Steve Kennedy talking about how he did in yesterday's Classic. He reveals whether or not his aluminum boat gave him a competitive advantage at the Bassmasters Classic. Wait until you see his prop after running through stump fields! http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/steve-kennedy.html

Timmy Horton was really, REALLY sick, so he didn't go out.

Day 2 of the Bassmaster Classic and boy are we having fun! I just got back from having one fantastic dinner with Bob Lusk and his wife Debbie of Pond Boss magazine, JJ Polak and Carl of JJ's Magic, Rob Faddis of KVD Line & Lure and BTS, and a few of Ray Scott's folks. This is an incredible event! Here's pictures from the ground floor at the weigh-in:
