I went to 2 different Bass U. seminars.  My 2 favorite speakers have been Mike Ike and Mark Menendez.  Both were great speakers, fun, and full of great idea's and info.

There was only 1 speaker that I didnt like, but I will save that for another topic.

Denny Brauer, Joe Thomas, Larry Nixon, Mark Menendez and Mike Iaconnelli...those are the first to come to mind.  For the total package of what they brought.  Energy, enthusiasm, charisma.  Each one was approachable, made you feel like you were on a par with them.  Others I enjoyed also, this is just the first group that stands out in my memory.  Hate to see it end.  I got something from every speaker at every seminar.

Ike - Best Prepared

Woo - Most direct with excellent advice

Denny - great advice for "flippers"

Mark Menendez - also well prepared

Mike Auten - used underwater footage as a training aid, very helpful.

Larry Nixon: Megaman." First BASS pro to win $1 million in BASS earnings, maybe old school, but believes in K.I.S.S.

Shaw E. Grigsby, Jr.: Fished a top 150 back in 2001 which was delayed on the first day due to fog, every one was sitting around talking, and someone asked him about his GPS (which was the size of a TV) man did that guy go off.
