Chazy Landing boat launch lake Champlain, took some chairs and my 6 year old son fishing from the shore. Well they had a Bass tourney going on. one guy comes over with this monster bass "Here ya go kid" n hands my kid the bass which barely fits in our 5 gallon bucket. As other boats arrive some guy yells over to my son "catch anything kid" to which my son with both had lifts out the monster bass to which we hear the guy shout "Holy Sh*t did ya see that bass that kid caught off the docks!!".....as every boat arrived he'd lift out that bass. It really made my sons day +++

[@xclaya]

Wheeler got his drop shot in the water 1 second after landing that fish, next level fishing.

[@InDepthSonar]

Is that Big Jim at 4:04 ?

[@VersatileBassFishing]

I thought the same! I would say it 100% is or he has a clone! lol

[@redred3144]

Can't wait to see these big small mouth bass

[@nickcavazos5718]

Heck of an event. I was happy to see a mart take it. He was overdue for his level of talent.

[@warrenbasinger2066]

I don't like this year tournament format for tv viewing, I don't like two tournaments being in one video

[@warrenbasinger2066]

Don't get me wrong, the video are still great, but I just liked the old format with more fish catches and more commentating

[@mackredsnapper]

I thought the same thing!!!

[@buddymccormack8668]

I absolutely agree

[@MarcusOrelius81]

Same! It's extremely lazy and itd be great if we could actually watch and learn some things. Strong dislike.

[@blimkie1981]

39:10 Embarrassing to the fishing community. My woman saw that then started on about fishing being cruel. Thanks for giving the haters more ammo, Jackass!

[@marcusyoung2870]

Tiberius The fish is fine. It goes in head first and the streamlined shape makes for an easier entry. On the other hand, if the fish belly flopped there would be damage to some internal structures. I still prefer a proper release but saltwater guys do it a lot if their fishing deep, it helps the fish get down faster, to equalize the swim bladder.

[@AndrewHankinsFishing]

Your wife must not know much about releasing certain species of fish then, you don't either I take it. Which is why you shouldn't call people names when you have no knowledge on the topic you are discussing in a immature manner. The musky is fine. It went in head first, which is why he released it at a angle with its head pointing towards the water.

[@ceb9769]

Andrew Hankins Have you ever caught a Musky? I live on the worlds best musky fishery, the Ottawa river. Everybody knows you spend more time reviving them than fighting them. You're talking out of your ass.

[@ceb9769]

Marcus Young equalize swim bladder lol ignorant

[@mattatherton1323]

if you need to revive them for more than a minute or two, you are spending far too much time fighting them, or holding them out of the water too long. if the fish is too tired to release by itself without reviving, you did something wrong.
