Maybe he's good for a Blockbuster gift card this year? Keep this on the down low, but rumor has it that Glenn is negotiating with Pan Am to provide the winner with air fare for a LMB fishing trip in Alaska, with George Perry as the featured guide... 2 4 Quote

Awesome! Since I'm going to win it, I wonder if Mr. Perry and I could try for the giant Peacock bass that everyone is talking about up in Anchorage? 1 Quote

I kept picking the likes of Shaw Grigsby , Rick Clunn, Paul Elias... a strategy that didnt pan out to well . I did luck into the winner in one tourney with Timmy Horton . I felt guilty for not picking Jacob Wheeler in group a because he was the only one I seen that's from indiana like me. 1 Quote

With 5 top-10 finishes and a win last year, I have every expectation that I'll be picking him for a few events this year. But Bucket A is always full of hard choices. Quote

You know, one could pick Wheeler automatically for each event no matter what bucket he is in and probably be happy with the results by years end. There are a handful of guys who you could do this with. In 2016, I kept kicking myself after each event for not picking Jordan Lee. So in 2017, I would choose him first and then see if there was anyone else in the bucket that I felt forced to choose over him. Luckily I kept him for the Classic... Quote

Super User Senko lover Posted January 12, 2018 Super User Posted January 12, 2018 The hype is freaking real, best of luck to all of you. I'm so ready for another season. Lowkey I've spent all winter looking at the nice jigs I won from @buzzed bait last year. Kinda boring tbh 1 Quote
OCdockskipper Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Uh oh, I just saw this online http://www.richmond.com/business/local/circuit-city-brand-returning-website-to-relaunch-next-month-with/article_51f10820-afb6-5a3c-bfe2-a813f93d7c87.html Just in case there is someone who didn't understand the joke, let me clear Glenn's name. Neither he nor Bass Resource were offering any Circuit City giftcards to the Fantasy Fishing winners, I made that up on a whim last year. So much for using a company that was out of business & wouldn't come back. Thank heavens I didn't say it was from Kenny Rogers Roasters, turns out they have a bunch of restaurants still all through Asia. However, I wouldn't doubt the news that Glenn is considering offering lifetime film developing from Fotomat for the overall winner... 1 2 Quote

Super User MIbassyaker Posted January 12, 2018 Super User Posted January 12, 2018 Maybe we should just say there is no actual prize, other than bragging rights. It was a good joke while it lasted. Quote

Vinjints Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 I might have to try this out. Bailed on fantasy football a while back, but this might be something interesting. When do you have to register by? Quote
Porkrind Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 I doubt Service Merchandise will be back.... Quote

Super User MIbassyaker Posted January 13, 2018 Super User Posted January 13, 2018 31 joined up now more than 3 weeks before the first event. We appear have the 10th most members by this point of any group on bassmaster fantasy, and the 2nd most of any private group (behind "Beat Ronnie Moore"). Quote

Super User Senko lover Posted January 15, 2018 Super User Posted January 15, 2018 For those who are new to this group, you're more than welcome to release your picks before the event BUT there's a lot of fun tension that builds up through the season as rivalries increase and we try to dethrone specific people. So keep it in mind that you may want to wait until the tournament starts to release your lineup. But do whatever you want to 2 Quote
Bent Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 These prizes are incredible, who do I fax my picks to?! In all seriousness this sounds like fun, I'm in. 1 Quote
SWVABass Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 In again this year fun to have a group of people to battle with, people at work look at me like I’m crazy when I try to explain this and that’s from fantasy football guys Quote
