Simply CONGRATULATIONS!😎👍

Congrats on the win🎉🎉🎉

[@bridgettebianca2318]

I love how you just have continuous conversation(contemplation). This is exactly how I talk to myself when I’m out on the water. I always fish alone and talk myself through it all❤️

[@fishinfromscratch5484]

Hey Justin, you should tell Ryan that 3rd place wins him the opportunity to be your rod caddy at the next tournament. It's a hell of an honor and he should be proud.

[@tariqaslam1853]

SERIOUSLY BRO THIS VID IS A CLASSIC, FOR THE VAULT. I'D TAKE STEAK OVER CHICKEN LINE WAS GOLD.

[@8Scorpions]

I was just looking at comments and that line was right on Q😜💯

[@Mart1927]

You were right in my backyard. I live in Florence and was out on Pickwick yesterday. I've been watching you for over 2 years and you were how I learned to catch these big catfish.

[@biggmike2703]

Thank you for taking us along. Enjoyed it. And everything you said about Alabama is true. 😂 Go Vols !!!

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Mike! I appreciate you being a channel member.

[@ronwelch6548]

I've never heard you so down about spending time on the island. Then you perked back up on the move and really kicked ass. Very happy for you and don't worry about slamming Alabama people, thy have already forgot by now.

Glad to see ya pick up the win, I was getting excited when I saw the tie for the lead, told mom, she said congrats. Every time you put a new video out, I always go down on the weekends and watch with her. She enjoys watching. Thanks for what you do and for sharing.

[@KayakCatfish]

Thanks Chris!

[@ralphwood4814]

Way to go, Justin I’m proud of you, I know your old butt just doesn’t quite fit in the kayak like it used to. If we only knew then what we know now as far as that ledge. OK keep up the good work.😊

[@peterderidder9922]

Catfish are used to see and hear all those speedboates, I even think those boats keeping the catfish active and feeding !! Big congrats for winning ! 2 prizes . I enjoyd the vid verry much ... Lots of fishers are to passive, they keep on waiting and waiting instead of trying sommething else ... You know I could give you somme advice to catch more carp , you just have to ask it ...

[@randyshaw8613]

Dam there's definitely some fish that were working threw regardless of what happens 41 + inch blue during a turnoment should give you all kinds of confidence now and in the future nice victory and biggest fish

[@jonathanwhite6881]

Congratulations, Justin! I've been watching you for a loooong time. I was hoping you and Ryan would come in 1-2. He's our local guy here in Kentucky. It just wouldn't feel right, only rooting for a feller from Tennessee with one of our own in the mix!😂 Good luck to y'all on the next one!

[@jamescardwell3254]

Congratulations, Justin. What a great trip and video to watch. What a great way to start the year off on the trail off with the a WIN. I appreciate you taking us along and getting to watch you bring the cash home to TN.

My local lake/river. Wish i had known about you coming down to fish. Didnt even know we had kayak tournaments here...pretty awesome

[@fishingamericathegreatadve4349]

Congratulations! Couple of impressive things besides your win - how you hung in there after feeling like you wasted time on the island. Can't get that time back just kills me on a fishing trip... And, how you were able to be calm at the camera when you HAD to get back to check in. Great video in the face of danger. But I guess it would have only been a couple thousand dollar boo boo 🙂

[@jeffmart1124]

Nice job. 🎣

[@ramrodrymensnyder2648]

Just heard you mention getting DQ for being a min late at check in. I have a couple buddies who fished a big bass tourney several years back. Got back to the dock, tied the boat off, walked over with their bag and weighed in, solid first place bag. Walked back over to the dock, let the fish go, one guy went to get the truck, the other guy jumped on the boat , used the trolling motor to pull the boat around to the other side of the dock (maybe 40'), got the boat onto the trailer. Went and parked the boat, walked back over to the crowd for the final results (to get their check)...tournament director said they were DQd. Buddy who moved the boat didnt have his lifevest on when he loaded the boat onto the trailer. "Must have lifevest on when under power" Reality was that they weren't locals and the locals were mad that someone from out of town won their tournament, but rules are rules and it cost them a little over 5K in cash. Apparently the guys in second place saw them move the boat, filmed it and turned it into the director. Sissy move in my eyes, but it is what it is. OOF.

[@calebpartenheimer7636]

Ya justin, I took a small inflatable boat out over a week ago and being 6'5, felt very crunched with gear in it and trying to manage 2 poles and oars. I upgraded to a bigger one but not to big. That being said, I was interested in fishing from a kayak, but after that experience, I don't know how you and others manage to do it or even have fun being confined to that small of a space and holding paddle. Learning experience.

[@SlimAdventures]

You have the golly whopper rod. Just a cool idea, the fun sizer rod?? I’d buy it🤣 by the way congrats on the tournament win, these are my favorite videos!
