ollie Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Anyone going to go and check it out? I know last time it was held on Grand I kept telling myself I would have to make the trip to T-town for the weigh-in, but never made it. Might have to change that this year. I just love a circus! lol "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!

Quillback Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Went with a buddy when they held it 12 years or so ago. We went to the Expo on the first day. It was interesting, got some free stuff and there were some deals on fishing tackle. Once was enough for me, no plans so far to go this year. First day at the expo isn't as big of a circus as it gets during the weekend. snagged in outlet 3 and ollie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I saw a haul them around in the boat, drive into the arena and line up to drag the fish out in front of the audience once down in Texas. I don’t need to witness that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Yeah, that is a good distance to travel with fish and keep them alive. From Grove to downtown Tulsa has to be at least an hour or close to that. I would be curious to see where they let those fish go. Do they take them back down to Grove or do they release them closer like in Keystone?

aarchdale@coresleep.com Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 i actually booked a hotel close to the weigh in a few months ago but it doesnt look like work will allow so i will have to cancel. I was trying to use all these hotel points i saved up, but never want to go anywhere because im gone so much for work snagged in outlet 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 Well, I didn't get to go again this year. I see Hamner won the classic though. Almost a 20# bag average for a three day total. Grand just didn't give up any real big ones this time around. Also see he won mainly throwing a jerk bait. I want to say that is what KVD won on throwing last time the elite classic was held here. With the weather like it was though, kudos to them for even finding them and catching them. Looks like they were getting them in the pre-spawn mode with that jerk bait. Good to see a humble guy get to the big show and win.
