Ike is in first place with 11 other guys, all in shooting distance of him, in today's 12-man last day Northern Bass Open on the Historic James River out of Richmond, Virginia.

 

Looks like the guy that nails the big lady will take home the trophy and a spot in the Classic.

 

Will be a great tournament since the starting weights are so close to each other.

 

Geaux Ike, Geaux!!!!

 

 

 

 

Go Ike!

Well it looks like ole Ike won it! I’ll bet BASS never expected a BPT guy to win and fish the classic. I guess his classic streak continues. ?

My understanding is, he would’ve had to compete in all the eastern opens for his win to qualify him for the classic. It would’ve been cool if he kept the streak alive.

If that’s the case that sucks.

No idea, but you could be correct.

 

I will ask BASS and try to find out this week when I have the time.

 

Will let you know what I find out.

From what I’m seeing it looks like @DHP is right, and he would have had to fish all the eastern opens which he missed the first one. Oh well a win is a win.
