Who are your top 5 picks for the Classic this year? 

I think this is going to be a very interesting classic. I think the fish are going to be biting and there are going to be some big weights brought in. It's hard not to go with the hometown favorites of Evers or Christie to win it but there are just so many good anglers that could take this home. 

Here are my top 5 and not in the order

Evers

Christie

Martens --- I think Martens finally takes it home this year. Dude was on a role last year and I think his momentum will continue into the classic. Lets hope it's not another 2nd place finish.

I think Brandon P will be in the top 5.  He had this one in the bag.....or close to it in 2013 last time they were on the lake.  Or Ike.......heavily owned in Fantasy but had he not had the technical difficulties he could have won the last one.

Yeah I don't think BASS and FLW will be giving up their big pyrotechnic weigh ins anytime soon, and that's ok. That's fun in it's own way.

MLF makes the fishing part more interesting though, IMO. I love seeing the pros searching new water and scrambling for bites, instead of camping out on a spot full of 4lbers that they found last week. It's more "real" to me.

I love watching MLF. It's interesting to see how the best sticks assess new water quickly and figure out how to stick em. I really enjoyed watching the first round on the Mississippi/LaCrosse area.

Next I want to see MLF hit some water up north so I can see how they fish water that I fish :) 

I also had an idea for a series that spotlights young up-and-comers who haven't yet hit the big time. It could be called Minor League Fishing, or MiLF for short. I have to believe that there would pretty big interest in MiLF out there.

Mississippi is already on?  I'm still seeing the early rounds of Dale Hollow and area. Time on the ice is putting me behind on all my recordings.

It was on last weekend. KVD, Shaw Grigsby, and Denny Brauer were in it, among others. Lots of fish caught, both largemouth and smallmouth.

Kinda off-topic but I'm starting to enjoy Major League Fishing more than the BASS/FLW stuff. I like that the competitors go in blind, and since there's no culling every little fish is a big deal.

I really wish I had WFN with my cable package. I had it for a short time and loved all the outdoor/fishing shows.

Yeah the Mississippi first round episode was a good one. No giants, but a lot of solid fish, and the outcome of the top four was in doubt right until the end of the final period. I really feel for [name intentionally withheld to avoid spoilers] who was is great shape and then just couldn't finish in the final period.
