Blue Ridge Brawl

What can you say about KVD that hasn't already been said? The guy is, simply put, a machine. Just when you think he may be out of it, he puts together a big bag or a string of solid days and somehow ends up at or near the top of the field. One thing I'd like to do on this blog is interview Elite Series anglers from time to time (if, of course, they're willing!), and I'd love to hear some suggestions for questions to ask some of these guys. In fact, if anyone would like to suggest anglers to contact, that'd be great too. A few things I'd love to pick KVD's head about are: structure fishing, since he seems to be able to find that "spot within the spot within the spot"; power fishing and how he defines it (this seems to be an overused and misused term in fishing, and I'd love to hear his response to how he's been called the definitive power fisherman); spinnerbait retrieves, since he's also known as a skilled spinnerbait angler; and how to get fish when the bite gets tough. I sometimes wonder how it is a single guy can be so versatile? Is there anything he can't do with a fishing rod?
