This is the Aluminum Boats Only ABA Classic. They are giving away lots of
cash and a Tracker boat. I figure IF (note the big if) we win it there will
probably be a brand new boat out on EBAY shortly. They decided to have it
here. I hope it goes well and lots of good limits are weighed in. It would
be a real coupe for Dave to have a regular classic here.

Yes, Hammer and I are fishing the classic on Meade in two weeks also. There
is different. I have absolutely no plan. I figure to just go fish some
good looking spots and see what happens.

... and nervous. Tommorrow Hammer and I are fishing our first classic
with real prizes on the line. I don't have a solid plan. Last weekend
was a slow grind for a small limit that put me in 10th or 12th place.
I know where we caught fish, and the one guy I talked to that spent all
day fishing my other pattern had the same results. An all day grind for
small fish. A smaller limit than mine.
I'm almost ready to try my winter spots and winter ultra slow patterns.
Strange when it feels like we should be getting a strong fall feed.
I hit a fall pattern feeding frenzy about five weeks ago, but nothing
since. I have picked up a few fish in those same areas, but just the
ones that live there, not the ones who were actively chasing.
I'm lost. Maybe just grind with slower smaller finnesse rigs.

Bob, is that the ABA classic at Mead? I thought that was in October? Or
is it another classic?
