I got Wheeler, Howell, J. Lucas, Horton (last minute change), and Chris Lane. 

At 2:30 basstrak has 4 out of 5 of my guys in the top 27.  The one exception is Palaniuk who appears to be taking an elite poop on day 1.

Oof, not a good start. 

Yeah buddies!! Here we go again. Anything can happen in this 1st go round. I had...

 

Matt Lee

Jordan Lee

Justin Lucas

Timmy Horton

Chris lane.

Well I'm pretty pleased with Day 1 on Lake Martin. 2 of my guys are in the top 20 and all of my guys are in the top 53. Not a bad start for my first time doing this. I just might keep the same lineup for the whole thing. Good luck everyone in Day 2 tomorrow! ?

My team is Mark Daniels Jr., Justin Lucas, Brett Hite, Randy Howell and Wesley Strader.

Wheeler: one of the best anglers in the world, fished out of his mind last year and low ownership...

One thing about Wheelers bad first day is that he never seems to mail it in the following day.  (Palanuik is like that as well).  He may not make the cut, but I will be shocked if he doesn't move up at least 35 spots tomorrow.

Dohhhhhhhhhh............ #72

I hate to say it but Senko Lover has the lowest score I ever seen .

Well to say day 1 could've went better is an understatement of epic proportion. But.... I'm not dead last. Hoping the hometown guys come on strong tomorrow

Not a good first day for me... 

 

 

Swindle - 31

Kennedy - 50

McClelland - 24

Poche - 60

C. Lane - 67

 

On a plus note, we've got 80 members in this! That's awesome guys.

Ouch!   65th place among BR, 22% overall...

I just saw that, 4 of his 5 picks are in the 90's.  I don't think any of us could do that if we tried!!

 

What I think is most amazing is that Kyle does a great job analyzing the tourney & anglers.  I doubt that anyone here does more research than him, and logically, he makes good choices.  Heck, after I read his earlier post, I started doubting MY choices.  Turns out my only real bad one was the one we both chose, Jacob Wheeler.

 

I'd bet my BR membership that he is in the 90's percentile by years end.

 

 

The margins between top positions and the bottom is very slim.  Day 2 will see a lot of changes

I understand it is just day one of the 1st event of the year on an unfamiliar (to most) fishery in cold weather, but...

 

It is interesting that the top 6 bags came from lower buckets.  Bucket D had 1st & 2nd, Bucket C had 3rd, Bucket B had 4th & 5th while Bucket E had 6th.  It doesn't often fall out that way, albeit it won't be surprising if things change a bunch tomorrow. 

Justin Lucas is the only one that saved me at 12.  The middle of the pack is so close to each other in weight its crazy.  Tomorrow could see a big shake up.

Before I went to work yesterday I checked basstrack and had 3 anglers if the top 50 and one was in first with a fast limit. I get back and only one in the top 50 and that first place angler still had the same weight and out of the top fifty .

Today could be a big shake up, the field is pretty tight. 

I don't know which was worse, looking at bass master last night after work or logging in to you guys roasting me for my utterly dismal failure of a day one this morning  looking back through my performance over the last two years....I think yesterday is my worst day of fantasy ever. Hey, I guess it can only get better from here (?). 

Looking at your team - I dunno what's up with Wheeler - he's not doing anything today according to live tracker.  Expected more from him - almost drafted him myself.

that's fishing, man. He'll be back. I think last year I would have been down about it but I'm honestly too busy to worry about fantasy this year so it is what it is .

Ike better have some McNuggets stashed somewhere on his boat.  Drawing a blank today as well.

Well, I guess even Jacob Wheeler has days on the water like the kind I have. 

 

According Basstrakk, my team is being pulled off the absolute bottom by BHite and Shin, who are unofficially in the the top 12 right now....with the other three  below 80th. It showed Ike with no fish in the boat a moment ago. Now updated with 1. Herren with three dinks so far, going 3lb, Wheeler with two...yikes.

Exactly - it's like I'm pond fishing out there - dinkfest.  If they're not on largemouth, it's just a grind for 2lb spots. Wish I would have believed the hype and gone with Omori or Fukae. 

my team aint doin so good

Lucas and Hanselman are in the top 20 but the other 3 are tanking.
