Classic Day 1 is in the books

Im starting about like last year….some good and some at the bottom. Ive got Ike (7th), Gerald Swindle (13th), Aaron Martens (22nd), Jason Quinn (35th) and Boyd Duckett (48th). It wont help my picks any but I hope Billy Mac and Niggemeyer can hang on and move up.Last edited by toledobasser on February 20th, 2010, 4:37 am, edited 1 time in total.Jim EbarbMany, LA (Toledo Bend Lake)2004 Cougar/ 225 OptimaxHumminbird Helix 12 Chirp SI on BalzOut Mount at bowLowrance HDS 7 at bowHumminbird Helix 12 Mega SI on Ram Mount at ConsoleLowrance HDS 8 in dash at console

Heres a clue as to why Duckett did not do very well as told on bassfan.com”Another shocker: Boyd Duckett, who won the Classic here in 2007, blew his engine first thing this morning. He eventually used his brothers boat to fish – the switch was okayed by BASS tournament director Trip Weldon, Duckett said – but that boat didnt have a depthfinder or temperature gauge. Duckett limped in with one fish.”Jim EbarbMany, LA (Toledo Bend Lake)2004 Cougar/ 225 OptimaxHumminbird Helix 12 Chirp SI on BalzOut Mount at bowLowrance HDS 7 at bowHumminbird Helix 12 Mega SI on Ram Mount at ConsoleLowrance HDS 8 in dash at console

I was wondering the same thing. Thats just nuts. Still wondered why he couldnt get some speedy NASCAR style service and get one of the electronics companies to throw something in for him. I know they work on and replace electronics on site.Jim EbarbMany, LA (Toledo Bend Lake)2004 Cougar/ 225 OptimaxHumminbird Helix 12 Chirp SI on BalzOut Mount at bowLowrance HDS 7 at bowHumminbird Helix 12 Mega SI on Ram Mount at ConsoleLowrance HDS 8 in dash at console
