I WRECK my boat engine & take the lead BASSMASTER CLASSIC 2k19 Finale

The last two days of the 2019 Bassmaster Classic! Join me as I begin the second day of competition 5th Place. I make a mistake and WRECK my boat engine on the way in with a HUGE bag of Smallmouth from the Tennessee River. Adding to the drama of the Super Bowl of Bass Fishing even more so! Can I possibly take home the top prize of $300,000 and the title of World Champion?! Watch to see!
2019 Bassmaster Classic out of Knoxville, Tennessee. Tournament waters are Fort Loudoun and Tellico of the Tennessee River.

[@bensmith6469]

"No one remembers who finishes 2nd" I will bro, I will. Lifelong fan cause you take us on the journey with you with these vids and thanks for that.

[@jasonmccoy258]

Everyone back here in Indianapolis is super proud of you. You are a great ambassador for the sport. 2nd place at the classic is a huge achievement, and you showed how much class you have by being so appreciative of what you were able to accomplish that weekend. There is no doubt in my mind that you will win it one day. Keep Dangling!

[@dakotawimberly]

Not sure if it's pure passion that is making me tear up, the level of success for you in this classic, or both. Beautiful video.

[@jeremynewhouse6530]

Awesome job, you have alot of great people supporting you and you didn't let them down. You can tell who a person is buy the people they surround themselves with.

[@davemarty5927]

Class act dude. And a role model for my boy. Keep it up and eventually it will be “your time”.

[@mgm_coma219]

This is what a true professional looks like folks. Rolling with the punches, always staying positive, keep fighting for that finish line and even when it doesn't work out, holding your head high and walking away with class. Congrats Jacob cant wait to see what the rest of your career brings you! Oh and keep making these fire videos bro!

[@gregthomas5741]

I think this is my favorite KZbin video of all time. J Wheels, you are a great fisherman and an awesome ambassador of the sport. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. I gotta get me one of those DING shirts.

[@mitchp99]

To comment after watching the video I have more to add, so much such class from you! As a guy(20) learning tournament fishing with my pops in IL who he learned from his dad nothing makes life better than watching the old pros still fishing. What makes it even better is watching guys like you and many others like me who grew up on them still following the dream and pulling hog. Keep grinding. Real motivating! (BTW) If you ever fish Illinois or up north you know I'll be her repping for you. Bring home the bacon!

[@paulmurray5206]

Love your passion and positive attitude. What you said about winning one for your fans, sponsor's, friends, yourself.....but more importantly you baby girl! Awesome!

[@Basssteeler]

Lmao. His video has better quality than the bassmaster live feed.

[@jacobwynn9555]

I was in the stands when J. Wheeler took the lead. It was awesome getting to watch it in person.

[@johnshannon8292]

Jacob. Has the best attitude ,as a competitor I have ever seen ,fun to watch ,the guy you would want as a friend ..

[@billreid4597]

Jacob Wheeler what a class act, stand up , awesome guy. Great job bringing us all with you on this journey. Truly enjoyed the trip. You're a blessed man JW. You've made me a fan for life.

[@bassintime6879]

Ott's kid had me tearing up Haha, kids come along and make you realize that it is all really for them in the long run. Love your videos man, Congratulations!

[@williesedlar458]

Jacob, not sue if you ever see these comments but you are a true gentleman and you saying you are fishing for you wife and daughter makes me respect you even more. I have a house in Lenoir City, Tennessee and have for reasons had to move close to Chicago. It brings a tear to my eye every time I have to head back north from Tennessee. I hope to retire there some day just because I love fishing so much. I wish some day I could see you fish in real life. I want to get better as a fisherman so I will continue to watch your videos. I was looking for your new rods at academy, when will they be for sale? Best of luck in the future and as far as being remembered first place of 52 place be true to who you are, it's not what others think it's being a good person in the end. That's why people will remember you!!

[@WheelerFishing]

Appreciate the support, truly. Hopefully here pretty soon! I will be making multiple announcements once I know for sure when they will be in stock.

[@thomaskasekamp9653]

what a class act. Thanks for the excitement and a job well done.

[@marvinnowakowski2172]

[@mikepatterson4320]

What an awsome video. Congrats and Thank You for bringing us along to get a view of the Classic that before was never seen.

[@georgej.6485]

Jacob Wheeler,,,,"Livin' his BEST LIFE"!! Keep crushin' it!!

[@coltenhenderson45]

What an event! Nothing but class! I’m sure everyone will see you back on that stage some day! Until then nothing but DING!

[@jacobalmond6713]

You are my favorite angler by far. The sportsmanship you show is unbelievable. Wish you would've won this classic but your win is yet to come. Seeing you work with Edwin Evers today on one of my hometown lakes (Falls) today was awesome. Good luck tomorrow at Harris, hope you come away with the win J Wheels!

[@rcagle123]

Man you gave it your all and that's all you can do. Everyone from 3rd place down would have loved 2nd place as I know you do. Keep up the great work you deserve every win you get.

[@bojudd1965]

Really enjoyed watching that. Jacob you have bright future ahead and I will be watching you. Thanks for sharing.

[@B1GE2]

Amazing to me how calm you are through the whole thing, sign of a true pro. I wouldn’t be able to think straight in the classic

[@richardmajewski4104]

I think you have the absolute best production of your events with the human side every bit a evident as the fishing side!!!! Keep up the great work in 2020 and I look forward to following you and your family throughout the year.

[@blakedefatta6941]

Jacob - You are a CLASS ACT my Brother...awesome fisherman, awesome guy, awesome days lie ahead for you!!!

[@jdslife7221]

[@harryassenback2860]

Good stuff Jacob! You lost but you lost with class. That’s a great attitude for kids to see and for this sport. Very cool and Once again, great job.

[@anthonylawson7073]

Was awesome seeing you all live Sunday at the weigh in Jacob .Had a great Classic and no doubt you'll be hoisting quite a few trophys in your career

[@-tylergoforth5564]

Class act man, even though it was probably crushing even to lose to one of your buddies you still went straight to him and congratulated him, and then went to your fans and signed stuff.

[@jonathangreen1494]

Congratulations to Ott but your still the best bass angler in the world Jacob! Oh, and I cant wait to see those new rods at academy in Huntsville AL!

[@GEOPUZZLE]

As important as being a winner is being classy...and you my friend are "Classy."

[@johnnyrebel3925]

Your a top notch dude Jacob love your videos 👍

[@tomstclair961]

MUCH RESPECT BRO!! You are a true hearted champion J. W.

[@waterdog3978]

[@josheveretts8744]

I wished I could like that video a dozen times! Great job brother

[@willvanderhoeven8119]

This was a great episode. The crowd and the energy of this format has got to be missed at least a little by the MLF guys. As a fan though, I LOVE the MLF format and the group of guys fishing it.

[@JustFishingTV]

Awesome Jacob! Congratulations on second. I was so excited to see you and MDJ in the super six. You guys did your thing. God bless and tight lines bro.

[@mitchp99]

Great performance man! So many of us dream to make a real money tournament. Let alone making the classic dream come true keep grinding broski.

[@steathrider887]

was pulling for you the hole thing jwheels good job man cool to see you an MDJ finish strong

[@yakin4brutes551]

Jay-Dub... congrats on an AMAZING tournament, I'm a huge fan of yours, and was following you MDJ and OTT throughout the classic, you said that the takahiro's, the van damn's and iaconelli's lit a fire under you to become an angler, well for me the MDJ's, Ott Defoe's and jacob Wheeler's make me pursue the sport I love in bass fishing, this is just the start for u brotha..

[@johnnysaechao6218]

Great classic Jacob! U did very good..👊👊

[@GoFishingMN]

Great video! Won't lie, I teared up a little too. What a journey!

[@mikedove7541]

Awesome man. Especially knowing the HOOSIER connection. Jacob leading going into day 3 , Getting a Hug from a Hoosier Legend Terry McWilliams and all being filmed by Terry's grandson son Brody !! Although Jacob did not win he did come in 2nd , best finish in the Classic by a HOOSIER . Beating out I believe - Guess who Terry McWilliams . I was there when Jacob won the FLW cup and he did not disappoint this year . On the Big Stage way to Go Jacob!! Very Proud of what you are doing!! Chief Dove !!

[@OGJlongo]

Shout out to that "Indiana 14 incher"! this is awesome Jacob, stay Blessed man!

[@fransaban4374]

Great job!! The passion is real and great to watch. Keep it up!!

[@juanpina4160]

Best Scott Martin video thus far. Sucks he had a little trouble but this video made me laugh.

[@thegiant573]

Man you where in it all week, great tournament, couldn't have had a better 1&2

[@capenelson1560]

Loudon is such a tough lake to navigate when the water is down. We lost a lower unit years back before GPS.. now we stick strictly to the channel.

[@beccabeth2]

Jacob you truly are the best

[@Fearthelettuce]

Jacob, that is a 2 minute fish landing penalty. =D Great job dude, so happy for you, wish you could have finished 1st but still a great job. Good luck with MLF this week!

[@Curtisdog4life]

Well done on the edit! I actually look forward to the KZbin series you guys out just as much as live-if not more. When are the Jacob Wheeler baits coming out?? Great job!

[@WheelerFishing]

Thanks dude! I have a signature series buzzbait with accent fishing and I got a signature series chatterbait coming out in a little while. I’ll be designing some new soft plastics as well with Googan

[@Curtisdog4life]

Great job Jacob!

[@toasted9453]

Jacob Wheeler is about to win! OMG #jacobwheeler #teamgoogan #googansquad #googanbaits What a second period ender! Go Jacob!

[@curtisloden7201]

I have 1 question. Why do you not take the same care of the bass in Bassmaster Classic as you do on MLF tournaments?

[@WheelerFishing]

They were on a Crankbait and I felt like I had to boat flip most of them in worry that they would come off. Most of them weren’t hooked good. Anytime I can lip the fish I normally will. Thanks for the comment

[@reellifewithcinco7858]

You're the man brother

[@Joshua-xt9be]

Good job you deserve to win
