Who gonna win the Open?

Rick G · Post by **Rick G** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 5:41 am

I am going with the "Legend" Mike Folkstad. Hope he knows the offlimits areas! lol Also, how many boats ended up fishing? Rick G.

Ron C · Post by **Ron C** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 5:44 am

Shaun Bailey

Im pulling for the family.. but other then that. Im thinking Bailey has a decent shot, the mans on fire.

Murph · Post by **Murph** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 6:02 am

Rick, you always pick the Legend! I'm sure he'll do fine. I've got to go with a "Legend" owner, Ed Rodriguez. 84 boats is what I heard.

Caudawg · Post by **Caudawg** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 6:46 am

I'm picking John Murray.

Robert F · Post by **Robert F** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 7:26 am

My neighbor John Kerr. Maybe he will get his ring quicker for this win.

I might be wrong, but Mike has won the Open what 3 times now, so when the bite is brutal, like it sounds like it is, he is always tough. Besides he has been there for 3 months practicing. Roy Hawk is my other pick. 85 boats is what I hear. Rick G.

Heard Mike hasn't caught a limit in 3 weeks of practice Rick, but you know that doesn't mean anything. Mike is about as good as they come. I think Aaron will be tough as usual. Also, I like Morrow and Newman to place high.

I have a slight feeling he know's you are not going to be there. hence the comedic value of it.

Nlvbassin · Post by **Nlvbassin** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 10:08 am

Dobyns or Jamie Cyphers
The weather is set up perfect for Dobyns.

Alex M. · Post by **Alex M.** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 10:44 am

Deejay Evans...
He's a friend and local who smoked the competition in WON teams this past season, and earned AOY. He's a phenomenal stick on Mead. Plus....He's the underdog. I'm usually a fan of underdogs in most sporting events.....LOL

GO DEEJAY!!! w00t!!!

some guy · Post by **some guy** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 10:46 am

the Lake show isnt an underdog.. don't do em like that.

CN · Post by CN » Mon Aug 25, 2008 11:21 am

Shaun Bailey

Dobyns second choice he will either be on top or way down.He's going to go with reaction bait's the whole Tourny.

Alex M. · Post by **Alex M.** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 11:21 am

Damn straight they ain't!

Lemme rephrase that....I should have said, "I'm usually a fan of underdogs in most sporting events...EXCEPT WHEN THE LAKERS ARE INVOLVED!"

Which BTW...Is the only sport that matters besides bass fishing, if you weren't already aware....Hahahahahaha

Also....
Congrats to Kobe and Team USA for bringin' home the gold in Beijing!

mattnewman · Post by **mattnewman** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 11:36 am

I never ended up making it out there, but I have to give Aaron, Shaun Bailey and Justin Kerr my vote. One of those three should do it.
P.s Thanks for the vote Brian wish I was there.

My fire sprinkler guy that called to cancel a half hour after he was supposed to be here. Had cancelled the painter and scheduled an electrician to tie in his system. That and you guys backing up Ike. One more time, GO JOHN KERR

thats more like a big dump in your coffee

TomL · Post by **TomL** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 12:06 pm

I'm with Murph on this one - E-Rod!

He knows Mead as well as anyone and he always goes for the win (no playing it safe for Eddie).

My other pics are (assuming they are fishing)
Roy Hawk (Roy can win anytime, anywhere!)
Jamie Cyphers (Jamie always does well in the Open)

My sleeper pic is -
Paul Aznaraz

littlebailey · Post by **littlebailey** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 12:29 pm

gosh i hope he wins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you dont even know how bad i want it for him, let alone how bad he wants it for himself. my figers are crossed for you bro. He said its tough, but he was real quiet. I think i know what hat means... but its mead. Day one usually dont mean nothin at the open. Day three is where all the moves are made. This should be great! Get em Shaun!

Ray L. · Post by **Ray L.** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 12:33 pm

Jamie is my pick and Bailey is the other.
Both guys can catch 'em on Mead

M. Warner · Post by **M. Warner** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 1:07 pm

Alex deejay didnt get in, but if Roy hawk is there, I expect him to do it. He is awesome on mead when it is tough. This rain today and the cloud cover for the morning might mess things up for some guys though.

Alex M. · Post by **Alex M.** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 1:31 pm

He didn't get in? Really? He told me he was all over it. Hmmmm..Interesting.....

Brian D. · Post by **Brian D.** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 2:14 pm

Roger "toonadood" got paired with Mike Folkstad. Nice draw!

Hollywood · Post by **Hollywood** » Mon Aug 25, 2008 3:02 pm

chypers then hawk and bailey. 3 tough guys to beat at the open each year!

Looks like the same four on top again for day 2. It appears Justin Kerr is gaining on the top three.

Splash · Post by **Splash** » Tue Aug 26, 2008 5:18 pm
