SudburyBasser Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 X3 Another vote for Mr. Grigsby. If not him, I'd like to see Takahiro Omori win again. For some reason, though, I get this wierd feeling that KVD is going to win. Quote
Super User aavery2 Posted February 21, 2013 Super User Posted February 21, 2013 As much as I respect and admire the abilities of KVD, I am going to have to go with McClelland for the win. Jason Christie or Brett Chapman would be my dark horse. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted February 21, 2013 Super User Posted February 21, 2013 X2!!!!! Jeff x3, but I also like Evers, Martens, Ike. Quote
papajoe222 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Mark Pierce get the nod here. Whoever does win will be someone that adapts quickly to changes and can relocate the fish when they move, which they will be doing alot. Quote
BassinB Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 who I'd bet on: KVD who I'm hoping: Shaw Grigsby or....Greg Hackney lol I love those two guys. Quote
Super User Teal Posted February 21, 2013 Super User Posted February 21, 2013 Will someone change this one to a poll? Id like to see the exact numbers..it would be interesting. 2 Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted February 21, 2013 Author Super User Posted February 21, 2013 KVD and Mclelland are gonna be hard to beat. I beleive they have both won on these waters and the jerkbait deal is gonna play into their strengths. I'd kida like to see Mclelland win a Classic, he seems like a godd fella. My top two too! KVD will shine again! Quote
aharris Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I hope for AMart's sake he wins. What's he had? Like 400 2nd place finishes? #GoAMart Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted February 21, 2013 Super User Posted February 21, 2013 Will someone change this one to a poll? Id like to see the exact numbers..it would be interesting. Good Idea but can a poll here handle the entire list of competitors ? A-Jay Quote
Jay Ell Gee Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 who I'd bet on: KVD who I'm hoping: Shaw Grigsby or....Greg Hackney lol I love those two guys. Gotta drop in with some love for Hackney, the only Louisiana angler in the field. I wouldn't mind A-Mart getting his first win if he quits whining the entire time. Quote
loodkop Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I'm rooting for my African neighbor Gerry Jooste but I doubt that he has ever been this cold in his life. For sure it never snows in Zimbabwe. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted February 21, 2013 Super User Posted February 21, 2013 Word on the streets, Ike had a REAL good practice. I'm pulling for Gluzsek. Ott Defoe is one to keep an eye on. Quote
Super User Teal Posted February 21, 2013 Super User Posted February 21, 2013 Franco, i dont doubt it one bit. I said it yesterday that if the weather/front is a factor IKE and A MART are the guys to watch! Ott is a rising star and will be a threat for a long time. Ive seen a couple videos of Pete, he seems like a likeable guy. For that sake, i hope he does well too. Quote
gripnrip Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I think what a lot of people aren't realizing is Grand lake has a TON of 4 and 5 pounders. Somebody is going to catch the heck out of them. I wouldn't be surprised if the big bass isn't an 8 or 9 pounder! 1 Quote
buckeye12 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Like Ike, KVD and Evers but I'm gonna say McClelland. Quote
dday07 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 KVD...when on the cold side he finds those limited ''highways'' bass use during early pre-spawn..sucks though third of field will follow him Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted February 21, 2013 Super User Posted February 21, 2013 The conditions for the next three days tell me that the water temp isn't going to do much moving. If it stays in the upper 40's this is gearing up to be a winter bite and there isn't many better than Mike McClelland in the cold. Quote
War Eagle 44 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 I can't believe I'm the only guy who thinks Tommy Biffle is going to take this one!! I also would like to see Shaw win one. He's been doing it so long I'd just like to see him get at least one before he calls it a career. It wouldn't bother me if Hackney won either. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 21, 2013 Global Moderator Posted February 21, 2013 I'm going to go out on a limb and say the guy with the heaviest weight at the end of the 3 days will walk away with it Quote
Gotfishyfingers? Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Most of the field has chance to win in my eyes. It's hard to truly narrow it down. They are ALL great at what they do!!! Quote
Super User WRB Posted February 22, 2013 Super User Posted February 22, 2013 The odds are on Jason Christie, not familiar with Jason. I believe the drop shot experts dominate this event due to the deep structure bite in the cold weather and water conditions. Aaron Martens is the drop shot angler in the field, both Omori and Miyazasi are good deep structure anglers and you can't count out Edwin Evers, knows the lake and how to win. Ike is the wild card, very versatile and determined. If KVD gets on fish, he is the man. I hoping for Aaron and think all those mention will make the cut. Tom PS; my tract record on picking tournament winners is zero winners! Quote
