Fantasy Fishing 2019 - Official Thread

[Mr. Aquarium]

I wish I knew what the lakes setup like, IE: Offshore, shallow grass, flipping pitchin, Cranking, Smallies,spots, Largmouth. Also with these new guys, I don't know who what their strong game is.

Like Greg Hackney, Flipping pitching, But Palinuk is a Smallie guy.

[MSWV]

Ive played this for several years and havent figured out a good way to pick them..  The first year I done fairly well and thought, "Im pretty good at this"..  Ive sucked every year after that..  Im thinking the "Out of a hat" method may be best for me..  

 

Heres my Lanier Lineup!  You guys may want to stay away from my team because I usally jinx them if I pick them.. 

Kelley Jaye

Micah Frazier

Mike Huff

Jamie Hartman

Paul Mueller

Glad I picked Clunn at SJR. Lanier should be interesting depending on how big the Spots weigh and if Largemouth are staging up. I'm betting on Spots but if not I'm in trouble?

Good pick on Clunn .I picked him three times in the past and he finished in the 90s and 100s . Twice he didnt even bother to weigh-in , so I'm reluctant to select him .

[deadadrift89]

Had Drew Benton originally but changed to Clunn day before. Completely changed team based on Lanier. Kyle Monti burned me pretty good so he's out for season?

He's done that a lot in recent years. I always refuse to pick him because he's known to not even show up at weigh in's if he knows he doesn't have a chance of making any money.

Fished a team tournament once at our local lake with a guy that did that, he loaded boat and left during weigh-in at ramp I was shocked?

[Montanaro]

I scored like 950 points and said to myself "Hey not too shabby" then realized i was like in 30%....like oh crap I forgot its not the same.

 

Anyway...my squad for next week

 

Crews:  has history on lake both tournament/fun fishing

Cobb:  good hx on lake

Williamson:  an angler i expect to be bucket A and can sling a jerkbait

Hartman:  no way a bucket D angler

Gustafson:  no way an E angler and a good hx on lanier

 

My strategy this year is to find hungry young pros looking to fill power vacuum in BASS

It sounds a lot better if you think of it as being in the upper 70 percent .?

Lanier blasts off tomorrow morning. Be sure to submit your team before the end of today!

[BassNJake]

I got my team in, thought I was gonna do better in the first tourney

I had mixed results with the Canucks as Chris Johnston was a good pick and Gussy bombed.

 

So I picked Gussy again .... hahahaha no wonder i'm not any good at this

[SWVABass]

In here is my line up

[fishballer06]

My squad for this event. 

 

[Jrob78]

Cliff Pirch

Seth Feider

Chris Zaldain

Bill Weidler

Jeff Gustafson

[fishballer06]

My group is all over the place again.

 

62, 7, 58, 40, 50.

 

 

It's a tight race though. 60th and 7th place are only 5 pounds apart. 

[Gundog]

Doing pretty good so far. All my anglers are in the top 20 but that can change by the end of the day.

[J.Vincent]

Just joined the group but I forgot to set my roster for Lanier....it’s upsetting because I don’t get reminders anymore from BASS to set my roster. I even have email reminders turned on? Anyone else not getting upcoming tournament and roster reminders through BASS?

[SWVABass]

@J.Vincent might want to check your spam or junk folder and see if your reminders are going there

I get them, so it must be your spam filter on your email or something. 

 

You can always subscribe to this thread. This is a pretty active thread and is probably the best reminder you can have for FF.

I didnt  have one angler make the cut . 

[Jrob78]

Gustafson killed me today. My other 4 guys made the cut though.

[MIbassyaker]

A big ol' "meh" this week so far:

 

7th, 32nd, 34th, 41st & 48th.

 

[OCdockskipper]

I was out all day, so I avoided looking at Basstrak or catching bits of the weigh-in on my phone.  Having the leader and a couple of guys in the top 20 yesterday gave me some hope, all I needed was my bottom two to slide into the cut.  So I start at the top of the leaderboard & see that Mullins has passed my man for the lead.  No problem, go through the top 10, none of my guys there (uh oh), top 20, still none (oh crud), ding, one at 23 & one at 26.  Okay, now all I need to see is Gussy & my other two guys inside the cut...

 

Thbpbpthbpthbpbpthbp...well, that sucked.
