Super User fishballer06 Posted January 23, 2020 Author Super User Posted January 23, 2020 We're now up to 30 guys in the group. There's still 13 days to sign up before the first event. Lets start talking strategy here. Who is everyone taking? It looks like Florida finally got a little bit of a cold snap, that's going to start a big wave of spawners. 1 Quote
Dangerfield Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 I just finalized my list, I'm a little worried about my tie-breaker being a bit on the low side: Quote
NittyGrittyBoy Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 I think Kissimmee showed what we can expect. Some guys will target early bedding bass, some will junk fish! Kissimmee was Jerkbaits to propbaits and Rattletraps to senkos. Lure selections were all over the board Quote
Super User scaleface Posted January 23, 2020 Super User Posted January 23, 2020 My picks and the reason A Chris Johnson because he finished second here last year B John Crews finished 5th and did well for me on a river before C Clark Wendlandt is suppose to be an excellent sight fisherman D Shane Lineberger finished 23rd and 13th in the first two events last season, so I'm assuming hes a good shallow water spring angler E Taku Ito finished in the top 10 three out of four times in the Opens last year . Thats all I know about him . 1 Quote
NittyGrittyBoy Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 Why not pick the guy who has won here multiple times? With outstanding bags of fish btw. 2 Quote
Super User scaleface Posted January 23, 2020 Super User Posted January 23, 2020 I've been burned by Clunn a few times and twice he didnt even bother to weigh in fish on the second day . 2 Quote

NittyGrittyBoy Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 @scaleface im giving you a hard time, I didn't pick him either ? 1 Quote
Finessegenics Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 I never followed pro tournament fishing much, but after killing an hour doing some basic research, here's what I came up with. edit: Put my tiebreaker at a total of 88lbs and 10 oz. 2 Quote

Super User fishballer06 Posted February 3, 2020 Author Super User Posted February 3, 2020 We've made it. Tournament week is here. As of me posting this, you have roughly ~60 hours left to make your picks. If you've already made your picks, post them up and share with us why you made your picks. Quote
FishinBuck07 Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Group A - John Cox Group B - John Crews Group C - Hunter Shryock Group D - Bernie Schultz Group E - David Fritts Just a shot in the dark for me here. Hunter I picked because he is an Ohio guy and we fished a lot of the same waters growing up. Always like to pull for the hometown guy!!! 1 Quote
Super User MIbassyaker Posted February 3, 2020 Super User Posted February 3, 2020 A - Cory Johnston B - John Crews C - Clark Wendlandt D - Bryan Schmitt E - Austin Felix No Floridians. Quote
MrPeanut Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 A - Drew Cook B - John Crews C - Brandon Cobb D - Bryan Schmitt E - Austin Felix I was going to go with Cox in bucket A, but so many others had him picked I guess I wanted to be different to try to sneak in more points. Quote
nascar2428 Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 A- John Cox B- Jeff Gustafson C-Koby Kreiger D- Stephen Kennedy E- Buddy Gros Quote
OCdockskipper Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 When I was filling out my buckets yesterday, I noticed something that I hope is just a typo. On the first page after you sign in, just under your name in the upper left hand corner it states that the rosters lock at 6am ET on Feb 6th. However, once you move on to the page where you make your choices, just below where it says Period 1 and lists the tournament, it says rosters lock at 11:00 am ET on the 6th. The small "time remaining" clock to the right of that has a countdown that matches the 6 am time, not the 11 am. While it would not guarantee you to be a winner, it would be a distinct advantage to set your Roster hours into the first day. I sent BASS a note about it so they could correct it before the tournament starts. Quote
NittyGrittyBoy Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Good eye! Anybody else see the cold front pushing in? That's gonna take the edge off first couple days of tournament. Bigger bags will come in towards the end. I lowered my bag weight and changed some of my picks. I think experience with cold front fla bass is gonna pay huge. Better get tight on cover and drop it on her! Quote

I got an email back from the software developer, they corrected it. it was an issue with GMT time being converted to ET. 6 hours ago, NittyGrittyBoy said: Anybody else see the cold front pushing in? ... I lowered my bag weight and changed some of my picks. I always go back & forth about changing the winning bag weight because all it takes is one guy to find a few big ones to keep the winning weight high even if the averages go down. Chris Lane did that back in 2014. The weights for 2nd thru 12th were where you would expect for a tournament where a cold front kicks through (65 - 75 lbs), but Lane found some big fish and ended up over 90 lbs. 1 Quote
