The Ultimate 1v1 Raid Japan Urban Bass Fishing Challenge!

[@JonJonsOutdoors]

Griff’s face at the end during the breakdown says if all. Feeling for you brother!! Been on both sides and winning is definitely more fun! 🥴👊🏻😂

[@dannystevens4381]

1 VS 1 might be the best fishing content on the web. Cmon Griff, dont let the boss man bully you like that!!

[@davidrauschenbach6871]

Ben nice win, you need to have a little trophy that you can pass between you and Griff! Thanks for showing different techniques between the both of you!

[@Woefman911]

The Hookup Cup (Stanley cup)

[@spinningrodfisherman]

finally some 1v1. more please

[@johns3292]

Thanks to y'all, as an Idaho smallmouth chaser, Raid has become a new favorite tackle co. Thanks for that.

[@tymfortoys]

Loved that 1 v 1 Great show guys... And I don't mind spending some $$ with ya guys either! Ben is a great salesman, but when you know your shit it's really not being a salesman. You end up being a teacher. Always on the lookout for a the new episode.

[@law1831]

It wouldnt be phoenix area pond fishing without rowdy chihuahuas heckling yall through the fence 😂😂😂

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

100%!

[@skywalkerv8700]

Always dig the 1v1s, Battle Royale next? CJ, Geoff, Ben, Griff - anything goes.

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

We’ve been talking about this

[@jrjeter1]

Great watch Fellas. Introduced some good baits and techniques through a fun competition. Would love to have that ability with friends and family. Great camera work Geoff and CJ. Gotta pull the pocketbook out yet again.

[@JeremyMartin-xq7pb]

This is the bass fishing equivalent of rolling up to the counter at McDonald's and having Jeff Bezos be in front of you in line.

[@Cornelius798]

😂😂😂

[@ipaulosan]

Now that was entertainment! Heck if I caught that many Bass at my local pond I'd be one happy camper. Now I got to get myself some of those Raid lures.

[@edwardwicht5271]

Great fun to watch. Thanks guys!

[@TahoeBassLife]

Really glad I watched this. Just ordered my first Daiwa casting reel from you guys and I would’ve definitely messed with the spool tensioner 👊🏼

[@ReactionGiants]

Great advertising the rod holder bro. Now I want 2 haha

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

That thing is one of the greatest pieces of equipment I've purchased for myself over the last couple years.

[@Spaceshuttlegunner]

I died with the tilapia. 😂🤣😂

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Me too. Nasty fish! But a point! :)

[@progradepainting3755]

That was a pretty amazing day for any urban lake.

[@deliciouspeanut6572]

Man I’ve missed these. Love 1v1

[@jasonnunnery6265]

Love the 1 v 1 videos!

[@chefmatt6299]

I absolutely love these videos. Y’all tried the Steez 69 Medium? That thing belongs on your versatile list. One of my favs. Handles both hard baits and finesse single hooks so nicely.

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Yeah that's a super dope one!

[@devinperreira6059]

Ben with the shit eating grin on his face , "good try Griff" 😂😂 good stuff boys

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Thank you for watching! 👊🍻

[@Roboworm99]

That was awesome. I start Buzzbait as well, then go lipless

[@paquimann]

These videos are awesome 😂

Awesome video! Love it

[@bighashgang1990]

That lake in Scottsdale lol there used to be some 7+ class fish in there back in the 90's early 00's no idea how it is now days

[@MetatronsCube23]

Awesome video guys!

[@Tbowie13]

Buzzbait is a pretty good opener. There was a time, as a kid that all I threw a couple summers was a buzzbait. White skirted, double buzzer so I could go super slow or fast. Looking back on it, I did surprisingly well, considering I was so nieve to other techniques. I even used it in little holes, in the slop, and pulled em out. BTW, the Karashi has been Killin It lately! Anytime I find active bait in mid to shallow depth water it comes out. The spotted bass have been loving it! Everything from super slow straight retrieve to crazy snaps with it jumping out of the water. Too much fun on BFS! Edit... Lmao, you know Griff too well. Hover shot and a Crawler! 😂

[@LoOutdoors]

What a great video - looks too fun! Haha

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

We had a great time filming this! Well, I had a great time filming this! 🤣🍻

[@Kilo011]

Great video as always boys

[@jorgemendizabal3069]

@The Hook up Tackle yall should do a video on keitech baits only. Would like to see your guys way of rigging the baits. LAove the 1v1 videos they always fire 🔥

[@mikecampbell7412]

Ben I would done the same spinnerbait covers more ground and the walking around pond was the key

[@mistertwister1816]

With the fast pace paying off, I thought for sure I would see a Raid lipless debut on the second run. I purchased one of the silent level vibes (mud craw) and would have definitely worked it into the rotation to heap additional insult onto Griff! Maybe the next challenge needs to be how many baits you can catch a fish on with a 1-fish per bait limit. Finally, I thought Griff was a Shad bait guy…surely he would have ripped one of those Raid level shads on a spinning reel during the fray. They suspend and are flat out awesome. What was Griff thinking?

[@toddpace4341]

Ben please get some of the new Raid G-Dash swimbaits when you can get ur hands on them. I know they will evaporate when you do. Raid makes the dopest fish catching baits there are. Im sprung. Lol

[@charlesthomas5926]

That's was a dope fish off 👊

Amazing video guys, great job Ben, thanks for the great info. Griff, I lost 20 bucks on you but I’d do it again because your so damn creative every time.

[@conradpfitzer270]

y’all have to come and fish that lake with me!

[@landothemando6901]

Great 1v1 as always. I would love to see a House Up 1v1.😎👍

Ben what was the name of the bag you had

[@rogercastle2434]

Who's the Bassmaster? I'd say Ben gets the gold today!

[@kendallunrau8458]

It’s just not the same without the piano in the background

[@gewglesux]

Has anyone tried those Master Blaster BB'S? What kind of plastic trailer would you use? Thanks.

[@TheRealEricRose]

Yoooooo I’ve been waiting on a 1v1 lol

[@gstixfishing9746]

IT's time!

[@hookpoint3329]

Ben that was mean🤘😜

[@captnse]

Ben “always” wins! No contest….Ben, I think you still would have smoked Griff even if you let him fish a whole day before your first cast 😂

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

Yeah probably 😜

[@jesseboyden3119]

Bfs would probably slay there

[@bernicemcclendon574]

Go Griff

[@_Lt__Dan_]

Dont worry Griff, all those bass Ben caught were paid actors. They dont count 🤣 Ben, what size & type lines were you using on both setup?

[@thehookuptackle_usa]

12 and 14lb sunline sniper

[@_Lt__Dan_]

That raid spinnerbait isn't very durable hu? lol

[@herbsteiner1013]

WHAT!? I haven't heard the expression "cock blocking" in 20 years!!!

What's Ben using to keep his second rod/reel on his belt?

Looks like the OSP rod holder.

OSP Rod Holder. It's amazing.
