Bassmaster and ESPN have so many mixed messages on their web site. Even though I tuned in via the internet several times over the weekend, it was always 'painful' to try and find what I was looking for. On Friday and Saturday, their 'live view' of the weigh-ins, were simply via the big monitor at the Expo. On Sunday, they didn't even have that.
Both Friday and Saturday their 'live updated leaderboard' didn't work right. Sunday it was working well.
I believe that Ike already knew that he had been beaten, given that he wasn't part of the official Super Six. I thought that was very poor taste on the part of the producers/director of the show. He clearly came BIG on Sunday, and was relagated to non-winning seat before the Super Six started.
Skeet is certainly a great angler, but I agree with the comments. He probably fishes without a hat, since it would be hard to find one that fit's his head.
On another note, did anyone watch some of the footage where these guys were taking their boats through the stump fields? Man, some of those people have no concern whatsoever, on their boats/motors.
We have to navigate similar stump fields here on Palestine all the time. You simply have to slow down and go easy. Some of them looked like they were in a demolition derby!
I also realized (should have really know it last year), that a number of the older big pro's that went to FLW came back last year to BASS, the Elite Series and the Classic.
Nice to see that the Federation Guy's who made it, performed well.
