Mike Iaconelli, Robert Hamilton and the late Bryan Kerchal were all Bassmaster University™ participants prior to winning the world championship of bass fishing -- The Bassmaster Classic. Iaconelli is the most recent Classic winner of the three. He attended Bassmaster University™ in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, several years before winning the Classic title in 2003.
Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster University™ will be held at the Marriott Toronto Airport in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on the weekend of February 18 and February 19, 2006.
Six top pros will be intructing, including the 1998 Bassmaster® Classic Champion Denny Brauer.

Also instructing will be Bassmaster® Classic Champions Woo Daves, Mark Davis and Ken Cook.
Bassmaster University™ covers mainstream techniques such as plastic worms, crankbaits, topwater, flipping and pitching, and spinnerbaits.
