Fantasy Fishing 2023 - Official Thread

[detroit1]

1301 pts. this morning - all 5 fishing 

[scaleface]

I picked the two Drews so had two in the top ten and the winner.

Looking at my team at 7:41 this morning and its blank . Did I screw up somehow or is everyone's blank?

[Susky River Rat]

Mine is blank too but says live.

[MN Fisher]

Website glitch? I hope my choices are still locked in.

[lmoore]

Was just coming to ask if anyone else had that issue. Mines blank too.

[Finessegenics]

I think it was just a glitch. I can see my team now

[fishballer06]

I apologize. I've been really busy and wasn't able to remind everyone that we had a quick turn around for this Santee Cooper tournament. Hopefully everyone was able to get their picks in beforehand. 

 

Yes, there was a glitch this morning where picks weren't showing but they seemed to have it fixed around lunch time. 

 

This fishery seems like something else. Lots of big fish but finding them can be a struggle. Should be an interesting event to watch play out, especially with Robertson leading after day 1.

Just don't trust the placements at the moment...

My Entry screen shows Feider at 61st.

Official weigh-in screen shows him at 50th.

That has always been the case. They don't seem to finalize official placements (Basstrak compared to actual leaderboard) for the day on Fantasy until usually close to midnight for me.

I hope something turns around for me because I’m doing terrible

I'm not terrible - but it could be a lot better.

I think my luck with picking blind has run out lol

[scaleface]

The last two tournaments I had Matt Robertson picked initially, only to change them because he is so goofy.

I got three fishing tomorrow - including my 'home-boy' Seth.

[fishballer06]

Really hated to see Matt Robertson not get a limit today. I feel like it's been such an odd year where we've had events where someone who has been struggling will bring in a mega bag and jump way up the leaderboard - and then we see guys who are at the top of the leaderboard totally whiff and only bring in one or two fish and ruin what could have been a memorable event for them. 

 

Fun fact - going into championship Sunday tomorrow, only 4 of the top 10 guys have caught a limit every day. 

[detroit1]

Another fun fact: last week i had most points in our group, this week the least.

Nope - you're only 2nd from the bottom - volzfan59 and NUK985 both are lower than you this week.

 

Meanwhile - even though only one of my guys made it to tomorrow, I'm hanging in the Top-10 still.

[detroit1]

Oh, that's better then.  haha   sorry fellers

[scaleface]

I have Luke so it appears I selected the winner two derbies in a row .Too bad  the rest of my team didnt contribute 

[lmoore]

Little bit of a slower start to the season for me but finally hit a good one. A B and C buckets all in the top 5 right now.

[Susky River Rat]

This is my first time ever really following any kind of pro bass stuff. Largely do to this fantasy league. I do not know if it’s like this most years but, the end weight is crazy high. It also makes me feel better when these guys can’t catch a limit of 5 sometimes because so do I some days lol. Now I understand they have to be of legal limit so they may be catching dinks too. Still non the less makes me feel better about my fishing.

The final ten havent caught a keeper bass in two hours . This is when Everybody should be paying attention , when the fishing is super tough .

 

Brandon Cobb has the spinnerbait going and putting on a casting clinic.

Ooof.

I missed the Lake Murray event due to work and some international travel....forgot about about it entirely, didn't set my team on either regular fantasy or DTL.?

 

It's not my season!
