The first day on the water at Grand Lake and it has already been a memorable experience. The first area where we stopped was packed with pros that were flipping the willows. These guys weren't just flipping around the outside of the willows, they were all up in them. At one point, all you could see of Edwin Evers' boat was the motor - the rest was underneath an overhanging willow tree. You can really learn a lot by watching how the pros fish shallow water. They aren't afraid to put the boat in tight places to reach the best water. One of the highlights was being able to watch one of the best flippers in the world, Denny Brauer, flip right in the middle of a bush and come out with a bass.
It is a humbling experience to watch a pro stick good fish off of spots that you have passed over in the past and never thought to fish. They know how to find them! I'm looking forward to attending the weigh-in. I know that last year, the Sooner Run tournament had great attendance and I'm sure it will be huge again this year.

Well I just woke up and walked out on my front porch and happen to have three of the pros right in front of my place. It's really a treat to be able to see these guys at work. So far I have seen a few fish being caught and look for it to be a great day for the guys. The weather has turned out great and it looks to have brought the fans out as well.
I expect that the weigh-in will have a lot in store for us this afternoon. I really do not even have a guess as to what the weights will be, but from talking with a few of the guys they will be good with a lot of limits weighed. I do anticipate a tight leader board when the day is done though.
