Bassmaster Classic Day 2

The big news today other than Van Damage and Pamela Martin-Wells is the DQ that G-Man Gerald Swindle received for unsafe boating. It was all caught on tape. Shame Shame G-boy. He got exactly what he deserved. The DQ cost him a fair shot at the Classic.

Well Day 2 is in the Books and Van Damage is in the Cat-birds seat. Will he be able to do it? I wouldn't bet against it. But I think anyone in the top 13 could take it.

The Day 2 weigh in has started here is an unofficial Top 15. with the actual
1. Tommy Biffle 33-5 28-6 #8
2. Ishama Monroe 31-5 27-5 #11
3. Kevin VanDam 30-3 32-15 #1
4. Boyd Duckett 29-6 30-13 #4
5. Skeet Reese 29-5 32-6 #2
6. Terry Scroggins 29-4 30-15 #3
7. Steve Kennedy 28-14 28-9 #7
8. Gary Klein 28-10 28-11 #6
9. Randy Howell 27-13 27-8 #10
10. Kevin Wirth 27-7 27-1
11. Terry McWilliams 27-3 27-13 #9
12. Michael Iaconelli 26-1 24-15 (In the 15 Spot)
13. Mike Wurm 25-8 24-8 (Not in Top 15)
14. Royce Dennington 25-2 23-12 (Not in Top 15)
15. James Charlesworth 24-7 21-10 (Not in Top 15)

It will be interesting to see how this corresponds to reality. Skeet Reese has weighed in and officially has 32-6. KVDamage weighed 19-14 and has 32-15. Wurm only weighs 10-8 for 24-8. Howell fizzles 9-9 for 27-8. James Charlesworth bombs with 9-3 for 21-10. Kevin Wirth 12-8 for 27-1. Terry McWilliams 12-4 for 27-13. Gary Klien 17-5 for 28-11. Steve Kennedy 16-7 for 28-9. Ish 12-5 for 27-5. Ike 11-6 for 24-15. Tim Horton 12-6 for 29-11. Boyd Duckett 10-15 for 30-13. Terry Scroggins 13-15 for 30-15. Royce Dennington 13-13 for 23-12. Tommy Biffle only 11-11 for 28-6.

People also in Top 15:Mike McCelland, Kevin Wirth, Aaron Martins, Tim Horton
Looks to me like anyone in the top 13 have a shot. GO KVD!

Congratulations Pam Martin-Wells!
Apparently Pam Martin-Wells has gone wire to wire at the inaugural Woman's Bassmaster Tour Championship at Lake Mitchell. She sacked a tournament best 15-8 bag on day 3 and beat out Sherri Glasgow by a solid 7-2.

BP Notes: So I wake up early this morning to catch the Bassmaster Coverage on ESPN 2. I thought the deal was that they would be showing an hour or two of Day 1 and then an hour or so of Day 2 coverage. I was quite disappointed when they only did a little on Day 2 and just immediately re-ran the same stuff from day 1. Boo!
