This is why you have so many fans. Not only are you good at what you do, but you insist on always doing it the right way. Your integrity and sportsmanship set a far better example than any tournament win could have.
Wow on your two days, that PB smallmouth and 4th place plus the AOTY standing.! I know those last two giants broke your heart, but let me say that the standard of sportsmanship you display is something all of us should aspire to. Love watching you and Gee and really appreciate you taking us along. You're absolutely top notch, Kristine.
That's why you are a #Shero, you did everything right and wasn't willing to compromise on your ethical standard. You went and found another #BrownZilla and hooked it twice. No reason to hang your head keep grinding much love 👍👌👊.
Kris I’ve had that happen to me in a lil BFL tournament and I had to let it go,so I know your frustration and pain.Yes I literally kneeled down facing away from my co-angler and shed a tear,because my wife and I really needed the money at the time.Im super proud of you and your accomplishments this year!Youre truly blessed lil lady!All glory be to God!
Kristine, one of the reasons I look up to you is because you are humble, you show us the good and bad moments, the struggles, and the winning times. I don’t have a poster of you, but I save the pages from AFTCO where you appear. You are my idol. Thank you for being the Real Deal!! 🎣🏆❤️
Your integrity is worth far more than any check our tournament win. Congratulations on your 4th place finish. 4th place out of 100+ anglers is pretty good. It's okay to keep parts of your life personal. We are blessed to share what you choose to share with us. You are a darling.
Wow congrats on that smally .you are always a inspiration to watch. I love it, you never give up, and always do what needs to be done.i always enjoy watching you. thanks for all your time and effort's for all your videos. Keep going strong. Thank you again, have a great rest of your day. 😊
It shows great honesty and character to not count that lip hooked fish. Idk how many anglers would have done the same. You can sleep well knowing you made the correct decision in your mind. A PB 22" Smallie is better than a tournament win any day in my book. Congratulations
I appreciate your integrity, and sportsmanship. You are the epitome of what everyone should strive to be, when it comes to a tournament fisherman. Good luck in your future endeavors.
You are a class act! I commend you for keeping it honest and not fudging the rules. You are the proof there’s still good honest people in this sport. Keep it up and the Lord will continue to bless you!
Good job K!!! We are all very proud of you & I must admit I'm a bit jealous watch'n you yank those monsters but since it ain't me, I can't think of anyone else it should be!!!!👍👴🦸♀️🎣🇺🇸🦅
Not counting that as a catch hurt but you did the right thing and that will come back to you 10-fold. This is why I subscribed to your channel. Everything about you is awesome. Keep up the good work Kristine you deserve all the great things coming.
That's a monster smallie! Awesome catchs & I know it sucks loosing them too! It stings for a while. We go back & think what we could have done differently. I know I do! That's fishing. We learn & keep going
Kristen, honesty has been covered, integrity nothing to add but it's really special in the world we are living today when just one person takes the step to make the right decision it makes this world a better place 👍
Integrity.. respect. You're still a hell of a lady angler my friend. Onwards to the next one. I'm still struggling. No fish this year for me. It's hard as heck
If you look up class in the dictionary Kristine’s picture is there. You are the example for everybody to follow Kristine. Congrats on 4th. You’re an inspiration for young girls to follow. God bless you and glory to God
I really respect that you held good ethics. You could have cheated. And you didn't. Many would have I think. And for that, I was always a fan, but even more so when I saw that move. Thank you for being you. Its so refreshing to see someone put ethics above winning. I really aspire to be as good a female angler as you-and to be as good a sportsman. I would have climbed under that dock too to try and catch a smallmouth that size. I laughed when I watched that and said "yep, I would do that." Those small mouth were absolutely amazing you caught. You have so much here to be proud of-and that ethical move alone makes you the winner of that tournament. Keep plugging and having fun. You have alot of fans rooting for you not only as an angler, but as what is very apparent, a very good person.
You are awesome and you did the right thing. Many folks will ride it but I was rooting for you! Congratulations on 4th , I always look forward to all your videos 😊
Oh my gosh that PB was a pig! Your sportsmanship is unmatched. That was a tough one to swallow but you made the right call. On another good note: they all stayed pinned again! Lol Still a very respectable finish . You're the best.
I was going to ask (before I got to later in the video) if you needed to show the hook in the mouth more often on these bed fish. You see others show it so often. Never doubted your integrity for a second and you proved you really don't need to show the catches! Good on you, congrats on the 4th and PB!
@@kristinefischer2289 If you watch the elite series, almost every bed fish they catch, they will show to their marshal and say "In the mouth" right??? Scott Martin and his crew do it every single time... Right into the Go Pro
Amazing job, both in your abilities to get it done, and the integrity to always play fair! My hats off…that was tough to watch, let alone what you dealt with in real life. I feel you a little bit, this week here in Kansas, I also caught my pb Smallie (a 20”er). Unfortunately I couldn’t replace my small fish, but still took 8th and big fish. Blessings to you & G!
That was hard to hear but I get it. I would have done the same thing. Keeps you honest and now if there is something else tempting or not you will fall back and remember that it’s best to be honest with yourself first and you nailed it anyway!! Great Job!
I think it would've counted because it targeted the lure and was on the mouth, different if you snagged it and the hook was piercing outside going in. Nonetheless, you are the epitome of sportsmanship integrity. Great things will come to you in the future!
God sees your honesty and righteousness. He cares more about that even when it can be heartbreaking. Proud of you for doing what was right when most wouldn't. 🙏🏼✝️ Congrats on 4th place and your new PB hog of a smallie!! 🙏🏼 Check out Ithaca Falls before you leave there. Right by the lake. Safe travels.
✌️👍 young lady just as in the game of golf... calling or following your sort of is a very hard thing to do.. but those that play it right usually get rewarded.. I'll be praying that when you're out on the bus touring the big boat you get your reward then?? LOL lol........👍✌️
seems like a silly rule, like you just don't foul hook or intentionally snag bass anyway, its so not likely, even the ones you do foul hook were usually eating anyway. But glad to see a person with self disciple, that is admirable.
This is why you have so many fans. Not only are you good at what you do, but you insist on always doing it the right way. Your integrity and sportsmanship set a far better example than any tournament win could have.
This is the definition of doing what’s right even when no one is looking! You’re amazing.
Ps I like that Ice Blue 🤣
😂😂 I adore you!!?
@@kristinefischer2289 hahaha back at ya!

Sportsmanship is the foundation of tournament fishing. Integrity is the soul of a person's character. You won!
That's why you are a #Shero, you did everything right and wasn't willing to compromise on your ethical standard. You went and found another #BrownZilla and hooked it twice. No reason to hang your head keep grinding much love 👍👌👊.
Needed that, thank you!
Such an amazing example of integrity and resilience. I will keep it in my heart and mind for our WAM Tournament this weekend.
I love that you pour everything into what you do and and talk about the good, bad and ugly. awesome stuff!
Your integrity is worth way more than any tournament win. Well done.
Shows true character when you are honest when no one is looking. Good things happen to good people.

Wish politicians had her level of integrity!
Too much money and power in politics- bad combo

@@kristinefischer2289 your always welcome
Integrity is priceless! Great job
Competing with integrity is more important than any win.
I never knew of such a rule, but it says a lot about your character not counting it. Respect and salute 🫡

It happens to us all to be in a slump every once in a while, even though you did really good. I like that tundra as well :)
Thank you!!!
That was hard to hear but I get it. I would have done the same thing. Keeps you honest and now if there is something else tempting or not you will fall back and remember that it’s best to be honest with yourself first and you nailed it anyway!! Great Job!
If I look deep down idk if I would of been able to do that. Integrity at its finest.
You have to think, if you don’t make the right choice, it will ALWAYS haunt you. It isn’t worth it!

You know it!
@@kristinefischer2289 yes
those were some tanks! great job
Thank ya! It was a blast!
Jus don’t give up ❤
Great fishing ❤️
I think it would've counted because it targeted the lure and was on the mouth, different if you snagged it and the hook was piercing outside going in. Nonetheless, you are the epitome of sportsmanship integrity. Great things will come to you in the future!
you will not have to slow down at the pearly gates!
Thank you for being honest!
Integrity lives.
That 22 inch smallmouth was huge. Probably 6.5 to 7 pounds. Thats crazy.
Money is temporary, your integrity will always remain. 4th place finish ain't half bad.
Respect 👊

What were you listening too? It sounded familiar but it’s difficult to hear. Was it band of horses?
Is there a rule against letting the fish go and catching it again? Most of those fish go right back to the bed
No there isn’t, but these fish were fickle- I only had a little time left, it wasn’t going to eat again for awhile
Did that 5” cull cost you just a few places or the WIN?
The win. Would have won with that fish
@@kristinefischer2289 ohh no, those ones really hurt 😔. I feel your pain, Feb I lost a BFL by ONE ounce.
Why couldnt you count the fish you hooked on the lip?
New to this so just curious.
When you are sight fishing, they have to be hooked inside the mouth
Totally makes sense! Love your content I’m new to fishing 4 months in just got a kayak used it a few times and wow it is fun! Cheers!
❤❤❤
I didn't realize that was a rule? You clearly didn't foul hook it. Can you explain that rule ?
"Are you Kristine Fischer?!?!?"
NEVER APOLOGIZE!!!!
CAYUGA WILL DEFF MAKE YOU JITTER LOL
😢😢
Jesus did an integrity check on you. 😉 And you passed.
🙏🏻🙏🏻
All of us are watching!!!
Do Do happens! That’s fishing! You did great! Keep the faith! 👍🥸🙏
