I loved watching the weigh-in today with the pros talking about catching their fish on $5 crankbaits while Rick Clunn's $15 baits didn't produce today.

That's an interesting point Olebiker. The fish here really like Bomber Fat Free Shads, Rapala DT16's, and DD22's. From the pics I saw KVD was throwing a DD22 and a Bomber, not a Strike King series 6. I could be wrong I guess but I had a look at his rods on his boat when he was putting them up after he weighed in on the first day. He had 5 different crankbaits on 5 different rods, on the deck. I still think his bigger fish came on a jig though.

You really can't go wrong with a DD22......on any lake.  

Well KVD again .... not much of a surprise any more !

I hope he'll clinch his 4th AOY title in 2008.

Too bad he wouldn't thank CJ live on stage for letting touch the Mojo Bracelet  ;D !

He almost lost to Horton ... I'm sure the bracelet had a lot to do with the win  .  :

Bravo KVD !

CJ or anyone else who was there, I am heading down to KY Lake Thursday and Friday to test out my new HB 1197 SI how bad a beating did the area between the bridges take last week.

Thanks Jeff

Ky. Lake has alot of water. It's hard to beat it up real bad. You'll be alright.

I attended all day saturday and have some pics to put up from in the morning and at weigh in. CJ- I heard Van Dam say that morning that his biggest fish came off a spoon. Whether or not that's true..only the camera man will know  

I think KVD was throwing a Strike King Series 6 but was it a sexy shad color?

Series 5 in Sexy Shad and Sunrise Sexy Shad.

what is a sunrise sexy shad?

Sunrise SS is a new color they just brought out.  I have the series 3,5,6 and RedEye shads ordered in it should be in this week.
