US Open - Results (basspro.com)

 

That link won't show results until it's over.  They haven't even posted the results from Bull yet.  They are doing a lousy job of making the results available, they have them in a digital format, it's no biggie to have that on the web page simultaneously.  

Only way I know to see the results is watch the weigh-in.  I watched it for about 5 minutes yesterday, that was all I could take, but at the time the leader had 15 and change.  

Is the field cut to 20 today?  Thought I heard that mentioned at the weigh-in.

16 reported powerhead failures today, so the field will be reduced a bit tomorrow.  😅

Only marine mechanics joke about powerhead failures. 😅

on the Bass Pro US Open facebook page they had the live weigh in and they would flash the leader board every once in a while.  Said Blevins is winning. i think those guys win everything around here

Who ISN'T winning is the local fishermen who spend our hard-earned money day in and day out around the lake area rather than once a year. And they're potentially moving 5 fish per boat x 350 boats x 3 days all over the lake.

I'm not anti-tournament. I'm anti-holding every dang regional/national tournament under the sun on Table Rock when there are plenty of other lakes in the Midwest.

Probably 100 plus skunks yesterday so they are not moving that many, but we for sure get your drift. 

I believe it may be Blevins dad as Blevins has won to much money to be able to fish it. 

Got my first trip after deer season today on Taney and it looks like a churned up ocean out here this morning, looking at the Rock from the lodge. 

Crazy to hammer them the first day. I believe 15 pounds or less makes it thru to tomorrow so that's when you need to go to your best location. 

I think the 50 tomorrow start at zero weight. If its accumulated over all 3 days then excuse me.

A friend from down here (Heath Konkler) who is fishing it is in 22nd or 23rd place and said on FB that the weights are zeroed for the final day.

figures they have to throw a MLF style twist into it. I think the 1 mil winner needs to be consistent and not just have a good day 3

I agree. BASS tried zeroing weights on the final day for some of their events many years ago and the outcry from most of the anglers was long and loud. I'm with Arch ... it's unfair to penalize someone who fished solid for 3 days. IMO.

Says 200 today and 50 tomorrow
