2012 Elite Series St. Johns River Showdown

It’s time to get back to work

It’s Sunday. We’re on our way to Palatka from the airport in Orlando to get ready to prefish the St. Johns River.

Analyzing Classic performance

We can all count Classic wins, but who's consistently competitive on fishing's biggest stage?

One last look back at the Classic

Before this year’s season starts, I want to take one last look back at the Classic. There are some things I want to say, things I think matter. Some are pretty but others not so much so.

Classic champ: We’ve got a good one

We’re going to talk about my Classic at some point, but not right now.

Day Two: Some days are tougher than others

Well, you know the story: I won’t be fishing tomorrow. I missed the cut in a tiebreaker. I’d love to tell you that it’s OK but I have to admit that it hurts.

Day One: It’s fishing, guys

I’m not especially happy with how things went today but I will say that it’s a fishing tournament and this is the way things go sometimes.

Wednesday was much better

After a good day of practice on the Red River, Mike Iaconelli is feeling cautiously optimistic about his chances in the 2012 Bassmaster Classic.

A tough practice

I know some of you are going to think I’m playing a head game with the other anglers when I say this but I’ll tell you I had a tough practice. It’s colder than I expected and the fish aren’t where I thought they’d be at this time of the year. It was a real surprise.
