Fishing in the right location
It's just a little over a week until the guys launch their boats in the 2011 Bassmaster Classic. What an event! It's truly one of a kind, the greatest show in all of bass fishing. But, it's still fishing.
Show up for the big show
I attended my first Classic in 2002, the year Jay Yelas won the event on Lay Lake by swimming a jig around shallow shoreline cover. Because it was a new experience for me, a newspaper journalist covering it for my paper's sports section, everything seemed significant. I loved seeing the anglers enter the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex arena as their favorite song blared over the loudspeakers.
