Bassmaster Elite at Lake Murray

[PABASS]

Randomly watching without sound why on earth is the leader right next to another angler, enough that the other angler pushes off using his competitors powerpowles, what am I not hearing/missing!

What place is the other guy in??

That was pretty funny, you need to watch it with sound. Livesay invited Robertson over to catch one, they are friends and Robertson did the same for livesay in the past

Rooting for Fujita to win it all.

Ish Monroe said Fujita has five livescopes mounted  , so he can now see all the way around his boat. I'm not in the anti-livescope  crowd, is this fishing?.    I would like to see some kind of limit placed on the number of units one can have .

You know who seems to always catch a monster bag ? Bernie Schulz 

[TnRiver46]

What a catch by Shryock, had to pass his rod under a dock while laying down halfway off the front of his boat, ended up eventually landing the 7 lber

That was the most exciting landing of a bass I ever seen .

Bass fishing wouldn't be Bass fishing without the Japanese aspect to the sport.   Those guys are just so innovative, methodical, and talented.  

 

I really appreciate how they all have both a US and Japan flag on their shirts.  

 

Ish actually picked this dude to win.

Is the weigh in frozen for any of you who are watching? It's 3:40 pm and I can't get it to roll.

I had to keep searching all the Bassmaster links and finally found one that worked .

[MN Fisher]

It did for a while with me - then it started up again when I switched to (non existent) Co-Angler Page then back to Weigh In.

 

Done now:

Benton

Shryock

Fujita

Walters

[flatcreek]

Great Tournament 

[TnRiver46]

Wow Benton got the monster bag at the right time. I had to “work” today and last I heard around 2 pm they were thinking shryock had it 

[Texas Flood]

This was a pretty great tournament. Shryock getting that 7lber under the dock was awesome to watch. 

[PhishLI]

I missed spots before I got it to work.

They have to. I believe the rules state something like the U.S. flag has to be on the right shoulder and no other flag above it. Although I think I did see a foreign angler (don’t remember who) with the U.S. flag misplaced. 

*Just read the rules and its US flag either shoulder but above other flags. No rule on having the US flag on both shoulders

[PABASS]

At least the guys sharing where just that, I couldn't find any more detail than what was provided.

I have heard Bass fishing in Japan is tough and maybe having all those electronics is the norm to be competitive?  Five FF sonars, I cant even get one lol.  We have had so many amazing techniques come out of Japan this could just be the beginning to thew wave of electronics.
