Classic

[Wayne Ek]

Has anyone figured out which channels are covering the classic. I've seen it listed on ESPN2, but that is a week after the classic.

[KickNBass]

That is probably the coverage. You don't get to see anything live unless it's on the web.

[Wayne Ek]

I know I'm dating myself... but bummer man!

I agree Wayne.

So who's got a prediction? Does KVD make it one for the thumb, or does someone else get to borrow the title from him for a year?

I'd like to see him win another one, but win it doing something completely out of his comfort zone like shallow flipping or something. Sounds like it's going to fish small with the high dirty water. Also be interesting to see how many roll the dice and lock through to the other pools.

i think KVD will be using the exact same bait he won it with last year, but my money is on a flipper. HACK ATTACK!!

[ShoreGuy1984]

I really think that Denny Brauer will win it. I have a feeling!! Denny is the man!!

[bassfshin24]

Would be awesome to see KVD win it again. Would also love to see Denny win it too.

[Basscat]

As much as I like KVD, I'd like to see someone else win it. How about Edwin Evers?

[NickMcD63]

Edwin Evers gets my vote! Phenomenal angler who is on the verge of being one of the best...this classic would do it.

[Cecil]

Wayne, I know The Outdoor Channel has some coverage on it too...

I agree Wayne, I'm getting impatient and want to see live coverage this weekend lol. I personally don't think KVD will win it. I actually picked Edwin Evers to win it on Northstar Customs Baits facebook page (NickMcD63 you know what i'm talking about lol) but I also think there are 3-4 other guys that could win it just as easily and lets just say I think the title will be in someone else's hands this year.

Brandon, you have a good chance to go 2 for 2 in NSCB contests - I definitely like that Evers pick.

For those of you who want a chance to win FREE NorthStar jigs, simply post your pick and weight on the NorthStar Custom Baits facebook page.

brauer and hackney have a heck of a shot if their flipping dirty water down there. That brent chapman guy put a great show last year in the classic flipping the shallow stuff to.

[bassfshin24]

how the heck did they not have a live feed of the launch this morning! A lot of angry comments on bassmaster site this morning.

[NickMcD63]

Speaking of bassmaster.com playing spoiler, what am I going to do for the next week until it is aired!!

[bassfshin24]

Anyone know how deep some of those backwaters are that they are fishing on the Red. I'm looking at pictures and it looks super shallow...kind of looks like some of the back waters of the Miss. I know some of those backwater shallow spots on the miss are kind of dump.

[Cecil]

I dont think its too deep at all. Maybe 5', similar to the Miss

[DTro]

Man that stuff they are driving through is crazy. I was just watching some on the water video on the Bassmaster site. Looks like you need 4WD

[mabr]

Boy would I have liked to have a chance to flip for 100K to hit that target. I guess pressure would make it a whole lot harder though

[swampbuck]

I willsay chris lane wins!

[pascooter94]

and he did.

[TonkaBass]

Those Lane brothers are good!

[slopmaster]

Chris is having a stellar season so far, fished the classic and the first southern open and won both. Can't complain about that!

[NickMcD63]

^ 600k isn't a bad start to the year at all.

[ShoreGuy1984]

They had a really good season last year too. They sure did a great job on the live weigh in!
