On the competition days when we have a camera in the boat with each competitor, we can estimate what each angler has in terms of weight. BASS Federation Nation volunteers work all day running tapes in from the water so that the editors back on shore can put together footage to show on the Jumbotron during the weigh in and also put together packages for the Hooked Up internet show.
When an angler catches a fish, the volunteer notes the estimated weight in the field notes that come in with the tapes. Then the guys in the TV truck keeprunning tallies for the unofficial leaderboard you see during the live updates. So there's always lots of buzz around the TV truck as tapes come in and the stories from on the water unfold. It's always fun and pros who didn't make the cut will stop by backstage to see what we've heard. Timmy Horton is back here now.
