If you don't make the elite series this time, if its plausible, I sincerely hope you keep trying until you make it. You got the drive, the brains and the following to get bigger than kvd once you get up there. It's been a trip watching you take on this quest and living a dream that so many of us live vicariously through watching you. Id say don't give up, but I don't think you have the ability to quit.

I hope if you dont make it that you will fish the opens again next year. I really want to be able to come meet you at lake Ouachita

[@tomstehr]

Oh man I thought I was going to have to go look at the lineup again. Lewis and Clark Big 10

[@ThomasShue]

At 3:00 did he pop a beer and give the fish a drink?

[@user-vx2mi8od1r]

You should fish Lake Houston. It is by new Caney and it’s a good way to make some easy money because I can tell you most people that join the tournament are about as half as good as you.

[@christophershelton1735]

Are you a lefty fishing rh retrieve reels?

[@opinionatedviewer7730]

Ive been wondering something for a few years and what better place to ask a bunch of fisherman something. Do you guys put your trucks into 4wd before backing down the ramp. Seems like I'm the only one stopping to do so at my local ramps.

[@jaysfishtails9416]

I know a lot of people don’t but you are better off if you do because you never now if there is oil on the ramp or this or that so don’t let someone tell you any different

[@opinionatedviewer7730]

@@jaysfishtails9416 Right on thanks for the reply bud. I been dumping my boat a few days a week for the last 5 or 6 years and it's always so nerve racking. My car rolling backs one of my biggest fears.

[@williamprewett3777]

Why do u catch big fish in practice?. Then it seems to disappear during the derby.

[@steezy330]

Was that an energy drink at the 3 Minute mark?

[@jesseboyden3119]

My mans literally poured an energy drink down the fish throat. Lmao i REALLY wana know why

[@finsfeathersfuroutdoors2460]

When fish are bleeding because they get hooked in the throat or gills citric acid stops the bleeding. You can use mtn dew or citrus energy drinks or whatever as long as it's got citric acid ive saved quite a few with mtn dew

[@IdiotAnglerfromIowa]

Got nothing to lose next week. Go out and have the time of your life! Tight lines and big bites!
