Well the pros are finishing up with their final official practice today, tomorrow is a preparation and media day, then they take to the water on Friday to chase that $500,000 prize. Conditions are bitterly cold, they are having record cold temps around Alabama for several weeks now. It could be a very challenging tournament, but I still think a couple anglers will still really catch them well. One thing, if the fish are still hanging in a winter pattern, they are usually grouped up.

Here is some fun stuff to prepare you for Bassmaster Classic week.
