They GROW Different HERE - MLF Stage 2 Santee Cooper - Practice Vlog

I have never launched a boat on these lakes so this should be interesting. The amount of water I need to cover in 3 days of practice is massive. I expect the bites to be slow but when they do bite I also expect them to be big.

I live on Marion and have for a while.. I HATE that this tournament wasn’t 4 weeks later.. DC if you think we got giants here you should see them in march and April it’s freaking amazing.. Marion holds so many 8-13 pounders it’s special.. also have 120+ lb catfish and 50+ lb stripe bass/ rock fish.

[@controlavirus9839]

Thanks for the info. Let the overcrowding and pressure begin

[@ktvlm3987]

cry more@@controlavirus9839

[@stanpierce4724]

You failed to mention the world record 58lb channel catfish, the former world record 5lb 7oz shellcracker, and 5lb crappie.

[@kentuckytrapper780]

I seen that screen! I'm on my way down there, lol 😂..catch'um up DC.

[@jamesbenton4123]

This is why we love you brother lol. The game is the same for all of us. Your equipment only works when your decision on the bite works!

[@cross_fire_]

Great tournament! Took my son to Logan Martin this weekend and those spots have baseballs in them! We’re looking forward to Redcrest!

[@mtalley9551]

Bro, comparing spots to Donnie from The Wild Thornberrys had me absolutely rofl 🤣 Just as feral as can be lol. I've been telling people that's what it's like having a toddler. 😅 Congrats on the stage one win, DC. Love the content, and hope you and your family have a blessed year!

[@SuperSNOOPSTER]

Been fishing Santtee and Cooper River since the early 90s and it is the hardest, but most rewarding bass fishing in the southeast. Grew up fishing Tennessee and Alabama lakes. Big difference is bass per acres. A lot of dead water on Santee. Hang in there DC. RTR!!!

[@deewrec]

Jacob ended that one quick LOL! about as quick as DC starts talking about megladons

[@adzoutnabout8666]

Cream rose to the top, go the house maybe marks turn next ?

[@98kutch]

When DC asked about doing the opening and was told no. You could see a look of relief on his face of thank god. lol rest up!

[@scarcheer7211]

Santee Cooper! Land of giants for sure

[@mikejohnson4233]

Go kick some tail on santee. Good luck. Love watching you, with your funny yet positive attitude when you get to it. Ty for the great videos. Mike

[@Skeeta56]

DING BABY!!! Welcome to my home lakes . . . even though I live in North Carolina now, Santee was my home growing up . . . especially the shallow flats and back waters near Russellville, SC . . . where we grew up without boats, but waded with the gators!!! Hope you enjoyed your initial visit and I pray you return!!!

[@kobycaster337]

“naa we not gonna bop around.. you’ll loose a motor like that..” quite a great bit of foreshadowing

[@matthewlindsey7717]

You winning stage one and Jacob winning stage two. Couldn't ask for a better start to the season. Im calling it now D.C. for AOY. Awesome content the videos can't come soon enough.

[@jamesdesmon5548]

U guys are awesome. DC had a great week and can’t wait for Redcrest me and my wife will be heading to Redcrest on that Friday and hopefully we will get to run into all u guys. Love watching the videos and y’all guys are what make Bass fishing so fun to watch and u just make life fun. Great group of guys.

[@computerguy1724]

Hey Dustin, the best to you the rest of the way! I was the boat in front of you leaving the landing, Reservoir Boat Works. I was gonna flag you down and take you boys to dinner!! 😂

[@jessevowell2554]

I’m convinced DC could hook a fish on a BIG HOOK dirty jigs swim jig with a 6’6 medium rod with some ole stren mono with that hook set he’s got 😂

[@MichaelP-Fishing]

Watched it live and was hoping for a move for you on the score tracker on Saturday! The final day is always better when you and the squad are in it!!! As always appreciate the videos and good luck at Red Crest! Go get the $$$.

[@myronhigh3527]

I TRULY love your excitement with every fish, it's like the 1st one you ever caught, with every hook set!!!😮 BEST OF LUCK, and GOD BLESS YA ALL!!!!👍😊🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@TS1023TS]

Back to back for the squad! Let’s go!!! Crush City. Hey man, your commercial with Jacob is hilarious. Saw it on MLF Live. Had me laughing.

[@cjvanessa1877]

Dang another house win let’s go guys

[@lanebevilacqua7520]

Imagine how many fish he would catch if he would switch to Garmin and actually be able to see something on his forward facing sonar. Man would be unstoppable.

[@andreaseichmann-qu5zx]

Hey Cizzle, how you gunna let Brett edit out all yur megaladom teef catches?!? Haha, love both yalls work

[@DCFishing]

lol, stayed tuned for what happen later in the week

[@andreaseichmann-qu5zx]

[@user-xn4bj5pb5j]

I dig it. Hopping, bopping around, winding spinnerbaits. Brings me back to the 90s again. Good luck the rest of the season

[@stevenconley2382]

I'm pretty tired I think I'll just go home 😂 loved the Forrest Gump reference

[@benbrownlow5007]

[@zjustin-bg3lf]

DC BABY, KEEP AT IT, its our year

[@jasonbeckfishing]

Gotta love when the MLF is all about fish preservation. Yet guys during practice are still boat flipping bass into their boats. Looks really good on them lol.

[@kennethpowchak1775]

Ol son you slack lined that first one like the G man. 😂. Nice fish though. Tough tournament but you kept grinding. Keep it rolling my friend. Big cups caramel to the front!

[@boomboomoutdoors3165]

[@coty7228]

I love it when I tie a juicy knot and cut the main line instead of the tag end 😂

[@MosesFishing]

@dcfishing DC, how you like that new quest trolling motor? I just bought one for the ranger and havent been out yet, cant wait to try it.

[@TheDedloc]

AYYYYYYYY enhance bitrate!! ThankS!!!!

[@robertfirasek5296]

What’s a good graph to start out with that has the capability’s of adding live scope later on? Something under a $1000.

[@JeffreyLee63]

Faith bro you will get it done

[@dutchdaniels]

Utah, get me two!!

[@tomlaurell6754]

Yes first one 🤘🤘🤘let’s freaking go

[@7inentertainment509]

Navigating those lakes is so hard

[@hunterbroskee6184]

Lowkey been coping yo moves I gotta catch fish somehow 😂

[@darcyriojas9190]

Looking good DC! I know you didn't qualify for championship day and the Jacob Wheeler won the tournament so that's cool. By the way how are Victoria and the baby doing?

[@SuaSponte75]

I told ya they'd be on that swim jig prespawn if the water temps were just right

[@Ab15257]

Where did you put in at? Randolph’s?

[@gregisaacs2978]

I caught my first wave today sir.😂

[@ZzGHOSTzZ29]

Need those gloves bro where you get em!!!

[@scottfrazier131]

Question, could you guys practice in the same boat with other anglers? Such as you and Jacob practice in the same boat. Also how is it that you guys can’t get information but are allowed to have another person in the boat with you,? Just curious. Comment down below…..

[@DCFishing]

No

[@miguelgonzo34]

Got toe megalodon!

[@tonyparsley641]

See you all at dale holler

[@robertfirasek5296]

I don’t think I have ever seen you throw a spinner bait 😂😂

[@johnnyweaver1300]

👍

[@matthewotting6289]

Normally once you start seeing them orange or red eyes you can start throwing the fire red like anything bright fire red

[@tomlaurell6754]

Get me 2 Utah

[@slabbusterrtr7690]

I tell ya DC I'm little older than you like im 50 not funny lol ....but I'd love to fish with you.. you a cool ass dude we think I alike I don't know if that's good or bad 😂

[@michaelwillis4532]

You proved that Toledo isn’t 185,000 acres…it’s only 16” wide!

[@Rattlesnake3]

No bass is safe anymore 😂

[@jpa574]

Swim around skim around

[@prestonmire5509]

What’s ip

[@louiseason5706]

Go quad 4

[@steelpoopstick9]

I am an F.B.I. AGENT!!

[@christianhurtado6095]

Since y’all always together why don’t y’all take turns filming. DC practice day one Mark day two and Jacob the next reduce the work load but update on all three on every one. That way it’s not redundant between y’all.

[@rolandreyes2636]

Promo*SM

[@user-cz7ql5jb8j]

Keep up the losing streak

[@JCB8689]
