With the 2011 Bassmaster Classic scheduled to be held on the Louisiana Delta, BASS is keeping a close eye on events surrounding the recent Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
"We're definitely monitoring the situation," said a BASS communications official. "In fact, (BASS conservation director) Chris Horton is in Washington, D.C. today, where this will be the topic of discussion.
"As of right now, it doesn’t look like the majority of the bass waters for the Classic will be impacted, but we can’t rule out anything and we will continue to monitor."
