Pure Michigan hosts back-to-back Bassmaster events with the 1st ever new Toyota Bassmaster Angler of the Year Championship (Top 50 Elite Series Anglers) following 2 weeks later on Bays de Noc, Escanaba, Michigan, September 18, 2014 - September 21, 2014! Should be two excellent weigh ins back-to-back full of fast, Great Lakes/Michigan bass! It appears they are fishing Michigan waters only for the Top 50 championship.
Wonder if KVD will be fishing it
I don't think he made the cut this year in the Elites for the classic

Kevin should be ok he finished 53rd so with the guys that got in on wins that also got in on points they should bump down to him.
nope kvd didnt make the cut this year first time in 24 years.hopefully this will light a fire under him for next year and he comes out blazing.

Dang I would think he would sneak in well maybe he will be at the open trying to win it to get in.
I'm fishing the Open as a Coangler....No where near enough time on the water this year to go as a Pro...plus I've never fished a BASS Open so this will help me learn their system....Looking forward too it..
Just reading the rules....Some differences between them and the FLW...
Very cool! Let us know how the experience goes.

He would have had to fish all 3 Northern Opens......You have to register and fish all 3 to qualify for "Win to get in"...
Yeah... I'm trying not to think about it yet before I confirm it is true for myself.
I was bummed to see Chad Pipkens (http://www.chadpipkens.com/) did not qualify for the Bassmaster AOY Championship at Escanaba. But... he can still make the 2015 Classic if he can win the Bassmaster Northern Open. I would love to see that! GO CHAD!!
Chad did qualify outright for the 2015 Elite Series! That helps him get a jump on lining things up for next season.
Sweet
Came home tonight and checked out the standings
My Wed. night partner got in as a Co-a and he's in 5th with 3 fish for 12-5
Hoping he can make the cut tomorrow
And it's nice to see Joe Balog leading
I want to see Chad Pipkens win so he gets into the 2015 Classic. Very glad to see Ben Nielsen doing super well too! Both are GreatLakesBass.com members! There are a number of members fishing on both sides today for the finals!
Allot of Locals fished today
Heard Balog broke down today
Yes, but he was fishing close at the time. Maybe he had already planned to stay in St. Clair? I just got on to the live weigh in (http://www.bassmaster.com/video/northern-open-3-weigh-0) a short time ago watching to see who wins.
C'mon Chad! And Ben too!
