Iaconelli has hit two more spots near the dam since leaving the place that produced the big fish this morning. It's hard to believe that after taking the unofficial lead with just two fish early...
Iaconelli just hooked up again, so there are obviously a few fish still hanging around the point that produced his big fish this morning. Unfortunately for Iaconelli, it wouldn't keep, another one...
Well, the F-bombs are flying. It may be safe to say that Iaconelli is starting to spin out.Iaconelli made a phone call and although we couldn't hear exactly what he was saying, it had something to...
After a five-minute stop at Walden Marina to fish one short stretch of bank, Iaconelli zipped across the lake and is now fishing Seven Coves Marina. He just hooked up with a short, but it won't...
We're back on Iaconelli after running north of the 1097 bridge and intercepting him and following back south of the bridge. He's desperately in need of three fish to go with the kicker and keeper...
Iaconelli gave us the slip, and we've ended up down south and think he ducked in somewhere back up north. So we're off on a another long and bumpy boat ride.
Mike Iaconelli picked up and moved to the north side of the 1375 bridge. He's flipping around brush, the same thing he was doing on the other side of the bridge. I've noticed that he's fishing much...
I see friend and colleague Pete Robbins has been blogging about Nate's lucky shirt. Over here in our boat, the team following Mike Iaconelli has gone a long time without seeing a keeper bass. So we...
Iaconelli has moved to a different spot up north. We followed him at slow speed because of the minefield of submerged stumps. Those potential hazards, however, didn't slow Ike. He throttled down...
Iaconelli is working back and forth along inundated brush, still looking for his third fish. After the blistering start with what could be the heaviest bass weighed in the Classic, he's cooled down...
Mike Iaconelli just boated his first fish since running to the north end of the lake. We're within 15 yards of him and would've sworn it was a keeper, but Iaconelli quickly tossed it back in the...
Iaconelli has settled into an area about 75-100 yards from Brent Ehrler, who has led the Classic the first two days. Ehrler caught a fish just a minute ago, and I noticed Ike glance over to his...
Away goes Iaconelli. We've made the long run north and now we're idling through a stump field to reach Ike's shallow area up here. This is our team's first foray into this part of the lake. Our...
I'm not sure if he has answered the questions from my last post, but Iaconelli has made his biggest move so far today. He ran north and entered Lewis Creek. He's fishing close to the bank and...
Iaconelli told me this morning that he'd leave the lower-lake area and head north to fish shallow water around 10 am if his offshore pattern wasn't producing by this time. Well, it's past...
After posting up for nearly an hour at the place where he caught his big bass, Iaconelli hasn't stayed in one place longer than about 10 minutes since then. Right now we're within a stone's throw...
Mike Iaconelli has made a few more quick stops before picking up and trying something else. His last stop put him in close proximity to Edwin Evers. But the two anglers are employing different...
I'm getting reports from my old buddy Steve Wright in Houston that Mark Zona and Davy Hite are saying that Iaconelli's big bass may indeed be close to 10 pounds. We had just pulled up to Ike after...
Just about the time I posted my last update on Mike Iaconelli, noting that he hadn't moved more than a few feet in the past hour, Ike maneuvered his boat in a little tighter to the shoreline. He's...
Mike Iaconelli hasn't budged from the spot where he caught the fish he called a 10-pounder (for the record, we're calling it closer to 8 pounds). When I say he hasn't budged, I mean he literally...
