BassNJake Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Anybody watching this? Ehler has one for 8lb 6oz, so far that's the biggest and leading the $100,000 Big Bass payout. I didn't see any over the weekend ... cuz I was fishing. Quote
dickenscpa Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 I watched yesterday and thanks to your post turned it on today, but I though Mark Rose caught a 9#er yesterday. Or are they doing $100k big fish per group? 1 Quote

I thought I heard them say on todays broadcast that Ehler had the biggest. Quote
Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted June 9, 2020 Global Moderator Posted June 9, 2020 The clip of rose catching the 9 came across you phone when I was at the shop earlier, he might as well have just hand lined it in. But hey, it worked! 1 Quote
Super User jbsoonerfan Posted June 9, 2020 Super User Posted June 9, 2020 I thought it was $25K BB for Group A, $25K BB for group B and then $25K for the qualifying round and $25K for the championship round. 1 Quote
Tlauz Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 I think it is $25,000 for big bass each qualifying. $50,000 for big bass in knockout round. I know for sure today I heard them say $100,000 for biggest fish in championship round and $100,000 for championship round winner. Also 3 pound minimum in championship round. The extra stuff for this tournament really makes it exciting. Mark Rose's 9 lber on spinning gear was fantastic. 1 Quote
GReb Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 The only tweak I’d have made is to allow the group winners who automatically qualify for the championship to fish the knockout round and compete for big bass that day. Or better yet do away with the auto bid for this tournament 1 Quote
BassNJake Posted June 10, 2020 Author Posted June 10, 2020 Instead of trying to decipher what JT and Marty were trying to explain- heres the payouts Quote
SC53 Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 Yep Ehler won $25K for his 8.6 for group A and Mark Rose won $25K for his 9.2 for group B. Zack Birge and Skeet Reese won $4K for winning each of the groups they won. All the anglers are guaranteed at least $4K for competing. Tomorrow's Knockout round (top 40 anglers (20 from each group)) is $50K for biggest bass and on Friday, the championship round, big bass is $100K. 1 Quote
Super User jbsoonerfan Posted June 10, 2020 Super User Posted June 10, 2020 I sure do wish Birge and Skeet would get to fish for the chance at BB. I assume they don't, unless they changed it? They could just go out and throw giant swimbaits since they know they are in the championship. I guess they think that could be an unfair advantage but I think it is unfair to deprive them of a chance at $50K. 1 Quote
Tlauz Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 They have the option to fish it. If they do, they aren't guaranteed a trip to championship. Both said no way. They will take the guaranteed $7,000 with a shot at $200,000. 2 Quote

Smart move on their part. They have a chance at $100K for big fish AND the $100K grand prize for a potential $200K payout compared to a “possible” $50K lucky fish price. They made the right choice.

Tlauz Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 I like the rule changes this year and all the bonuses for this event. All the BPT events have been exciting this year. I love Jordan's reaction when that fish jumped. 2 Quote
