On Monday, BASS conducted the boat takeoff position drawing for the 2007 Bassmaster Classic  Below you will find the list of takeoff positions for the 07 Classic.  An interesting fact is that second place finisher in the 2006 Angler of the Year race, Steve Kennedy, ironically drew out boat number two.  Check out the field below.

Is that an ***?

#2 behind Ike in Angler of the Year and the #2 spot in the Classic?

Is that an *** for Ike, too?

I think AOY automatically gets #1 boat position, so Ike's not in the drawing.

#21 Royce Dennington makes some killer football jigs and sells them on eBay. I hope he does well in the Classic.....he's one heck of a nice guy.

I don't think Gerald Swindle and Gary Klein will do very well because they are starting at the back of the pack.   Considering the lake is so small compared to what they normally fish on, they may have to rely on there 2 or 3 spots to start the day, which isn't a good thing.

I don't think that their starting position will have too much effect.
