Ike’s Pittsburgh Classic Memories

The 2005 Bassmaster Classic, held on the Three Rivers of Pittsburgh, was the third one that I attended and the second as a member of the media. Over two decades later, it remains one my fondest memories, a milestone Classic and an inflection point in my life.

Even though Mike Iaconelli won a Classic title two years earlier, I suspected that the Pittsburgh event was also especially memorable for him, so I took an opportunity to pick h is brain about the particulars.
