Battling BIG Bass and BIGGER Crowds in a Pro Fishing Tournament!

[@mikemaahs638]

I used to freeze the lake water for live well ice. It doesn't have any bleach or chlorine in it like ice made from tap water. It helps with your mortality rate on hot days.

[@BostonDonDaDaShark88]

No one cares old man rivers 😂😅😊

[@brax-boomer6915]

This is an amazing tip! When those bass are coming from super deep water here in Michigan it's even hard to keep some of them alive with ice after you fizz them on hot days. I'll have to give this one a try

[@stocktonlkfshg]

We use well water.

[@mrpaul6971]

Fishing on my birthday is required! Glad to see it is for you as well.

[@djhotshot67]

YO BEN YOU GOT ME BACK INTO BASS FISHING even Have a few 6sense Milliken rods and a six sense stache stick ❤🤙

[@ADKyakman]

When you have 5 dinks in a livewell they can get a little crazy inside it… pad your tops of the insides of the hatches, m, keep ice, plenty of spring water ice or even the water from the lake you’re fishing

[@Whatsinanameanyway13]

Great job, and happy birthday. My birthday is this week and while I don't get to fish a tournament *on* my birthday, I will have 2 days of practice followed by 2 days of tournament on one of my favorite bodies of water (Mississippi River, in this case pool 12) starting the day after my birthday, so close enough. Good luck at Champlaign

[@normsweeney3116]

Happy Birthday MF'ER!!

[@rogerwilliams977]

Happy birthday brother 💙

[@bsimmons19]

I guess I didn’t really realize how big the 3.5lb spot I caught was. Early June on smith lake under our Vrbo house dock. The channel out front was 220ft deep within 100 yards of shore.

[@johnm2617]

Gotta start Fizzing those fish * Those fin weights are useless!! TAKU ALWAYS FIZZES!😮😮

[@denissijecic5164]

Is that the new 85 inch samsung tv on your front deck? 😂😂

[@donprater2754]

Good luck in New York.😊

[@ChasingStriper]

Fishing on your birthday is cool on a tournament is legendary ordered some lures from 6th sense my early bday present

[@Bassmaster1256]

Nice video. What's happening with all the dead fish?

[@AlabamaBassin]

Aye we made the video. I was wondering where Cole's ass snuck off to.

[@bradduplantis8014]

Keep on fishing

[@ryansaul9867]

what rod and reels do you use for your glide baits

[@travisquinney1739]

And dead fish in the live well 😂😂😂

[@arthurervin1017]

Is there a rule agianst keeping more than 5 fish in your livewell If you know you might have dead fish when you get to the dock, why not keep a couple extra when you cull instead of throwing back your 6th and 7th biggest just keep them in the extra livewell?

[@dirt_road_nation4935]

Dinks for days! 4:59

[@Logan-t-k9s]

Love your videos I hope you can win the elit series and hope you catch some really big fish. 402

[@tyleryoungandco]

It's been a bit since I've checked in. Your video quality is really sharp these days. Are you still doing walmart vids and fishing sewers?

[@AsianAmerican113]

I feel like as much money as you have on the line in these tournaments I’d go all out and install that fish lung live well system, a little pricey so I can’t justify spending the money but for you I’d say do it.

[@scottswank1751]

I hope BassCat is watching this video and makes some changes to their live wells like iKON has done.

[@KhookemB]

What shoes are those you wear brotha? I can’t tell but I F with them the long way no diddy 😂😂😂. Look like some air max’s

What top water are you using ?

[@slabbusterrtr7690]

Lake Martin In the summer as bad if not worse than smith not a fan of clear water lakes if I had my choice.. I'll take Tennessee river or coosa river anyday in Alabama

[@luster5497]

Bro have a problem keeping fish alive huh?

[@williamknight5142]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@brant2024]

So I understand the heat is a struggle with fish in the summer but why are these bass dying so easily?

[@anythingoutdoorsgulfcoast7617]

Because the keep them in a 2x2 box and drive them around the lake all day. If you’re not a fan check out MLF where they weigh the fish and release them immediately

[@brant2024]

@@anythingoutdoorsgulfcoast7617 sorry for a late response I’ve grown up fishing tournaments but I’m out of Oklahoma and we fish summer tournaments and don’t even have problem with fish dying, there’s gotta be a reason they are so are to keep alive there

[@gusser888]

what are you going to do when they outlaw your electronics,you will be force to go fishing

[@gtpforever]

He fished before electronics and he'll fish after them. Although I doubt there will be a permanent ban on live scopes. They did this same complaining back when the normal systems of today showed up. It's always the bitches who complain and then change their minds as time goes by.

[@brentbloomfishing]

So many bass die it's wild

[@jaylarocca5830]

Bro, you breathing really heavy...

[@ThomasShue]

So what’s the official response to the fin clips on that released bass? Not shit stirring, just wanted to hear direct. I assume that you were in a hurry and forgot to pull the clips. Honest mistake, not a dead fish?

[@mattressesunderwater]

The official response is on the juice podcast

Unforgivable

[@mrlrgmouth3692]

.I never ever ever have my rod tip high .really .my rod tip is at water level and I'm playing out the fish as gently as I can .doing everything I can to keep it from coming up or realizing it is even caught .amd I rarely loose a fish .even with your parabolic rods I don't understand.becaue you being a pro should know better. .know that you have a better chance of that fish coming in the boat. It just scares me when I watch you reel a fish in. Smh.and to watch you get broke off or come unglued is even worse.

[@Daiwa_Is_King]

Go fish the elites then see how good you do. Kids these days think they know everything 😂😂😂
