Iaconelli Finishes 2010 Elite Series Season in 22nd Place
Mike began the season with impressive top 10 finishes in the Bassmaster Classic and the first Elite series event in the California Delta. A 25th place finish rounded out a respectable tour of the West Coast. Mike's first real faltering in the 2010 season was at Smith Mountain Lake, where he'd registered top 20 finishes in 2007 and 2006 and a 8th place finish in 2004. Mike has not registered a top 40 at Smith Mountain Lake in his last two visits. Mike rebounded with an 11th place finish at Pickwick Lake, a big river-like lake in South Tennessee and more...

What do Mike Iaconelli, Kevin Vandam, Edwin Evers, and Kelly Jordan Have in Common?
The answer is that they are all supporting the "Fishin' with a Mission" decal program which helps raise Autism Awareness through out the Bass Fishing and marine community nation wide. These superstars of their sport (and soon Skeet Reese) have all placed the "Fishin' with a Mission" Autism Awareness decals on their boats to help raise awareness and support kids, families, and their friends who are affected by Autism. These guys have kindly placed these decals on very valuable and prominent placements on their boats and tow vehicles. Most have put them next to their drivers seat and on the more...

Mike Iaconelli Talks About Catching Tournament Bass at Clarks Hill
Mike Iaconelli here at Clarks Hill Lake, at the Elite tournament. This was a super tough week. Lakes with blue-back herring are synonymous with tough fishing, once the blue-back are done spawning. That's what we had here this week, so super-tough fishing. I had a decent tournament. The way that I figured out how to catch them was sort of a two-pronged approach this week. Early in the morning, when you had low-light conditions, I would basically fish the flat points with more...

Mike Iaconelli Talks About Why He Fishes Molix Spinnerbaits
Hi folks, Mike Iaconelli here, and I want to talk to you about a brand new spinnerbait company I'm working with this year. It's a company out of Italy, called Molix.

Mike Iaconelli Talks About Fishing Deep Water at Clear Lake
Mike Iaconelli, here to talk about the second regular BASS event, another one out in California. This one at Clear Lake. Everyone's heard of Clear Lake, what an awesome lake. I really went there expecting to throw a swimbait the entire tournament, and have giant fish following this thing. It really, for me, turned into a deep-water tournament. I found a lot of fish, that were more on the pre-spawn side than on the actual spawn side. In the event, I targeted more...
