Vintage Milken'm. Hearkens back to classic footage. All your videos are cool, but this is true Meffer. Nice gesture with the donation. More please. Good luck at the Classic Ben. Looking forward to seeing you on my home water.
I remember watching you go back in that skinny water by the house with the dogs a long time ago in several of your older videos and I remember you always smashing a big one right at the front but not this time I was thinking when you asked those guys to go past that you were crank a giant right in front of them lol. I also bought my first gilliken crush shortly after seeing you smash on that lake with it. It’s a staple in my shallow arsenal now. Thanks man. I have learned so much from you over the years and I appreciate it. I’m gonna bid on the trip but I’m pretty sure it’s gonna get too rich for me but oh well I will still get to watch you catch ‘em up for free on here. Best wishes and good luck in the classic bro.
Hell to tha Yeah BOOIII. There's just something about top water bass blow-ups!! Regardless, I legit get a ridiculous smile every time I get a noti saying the man, the myth, the legend just dropped another Banger, with some Lip Rippin 🎣💥👊🏻
Well done man, you can come fish our local tourneys any time, especially if you're gonna donate the proceeds back to the pot :) There's always a few locals who could use taken down a few notches.
I enjoyed this more than watching the elites. Those are good but you look so stressed. Here you are just relaxed and it's much better. Also, I like having those narrations on your newer videos (I think by Coleslaw). Keep doing those. Keep those lines tight.
Hey man love watching you smash them and then you won and you showed good sportsmen's ship by giving it back to the pot awesome man that showed goodness and loyalty of being a Professional Bass fisherman.
Good Lord man! I got stabbed by bass a few times before but I have never had one break like that in my skin. When I saw the clip I thought it was a piece of glass not a piece of bass. Fishing is a dangerous game.
This is my first comment over all the years watching you. These guys need to go back to your early content when you slept in your truck at a reservoir or river bank and fished r whatever you could catch. Its been quite the trip watching you progress over the years. Thank you for the content! I do lean slightly on R B's side. Dont be a hater. Lol
Hate to hear about your neck. Hope it gets worked out. I'm having surgery on mine right before Christmas. I was just concerned that I couldn't fish while I'm out of work for 3 months. Lol. Doc said I need to give it a couple weeks after the surgery. Priorities. Again, great video
how about instead of auctioning to viewers that are probly more than 50% broke, you speak with sponsors to raise enough money for charity for it to be worth it for you to wana do the "come fish with me for a day" as a raffle to your loyal subscribers that cant afford to donate record breaking amounts of money. All due respect man, you're one of my favorites so dont get it twisted. Just looking out for those who dont look out for themselves
At the 8 minute mark, you have caught three nice bass on the bank. I didn’t know you could do that. what is the setting that you use for your live scope to tell you when to go to the bank!? That must be an experience thing because I know I sure as hell didn’t read that in the owners manual.
😂 I definitely prefer to fish offshore, which has nothing to do with livescope. But I’ll gladly take anyone’s money on the bank as well…same for all the other “scopers” at the top level.
@MillikenFishing I don't even have lovescope and almost exclusively fish offshore, these guys that label people "scopers" are just mad they suck at fishing offshore
What an ending 👏 congratulations on the random win a W is a W and you're a true sportsmen by donating the winningings back keep on shining ✨️ Ben and rippin lips
Way to go .great sportsman ship Wish i could afford to bid for a chance to fish with you ..i ĺive in sandiego and one of these days i will meet you .we have a club tourny coming up this month at lake havasu .cant wait for that ..have you ever fished the west coast dessert lakes or the western trail. I think it would be awesome for you to try and compete on the western trail one of these days. Have a great day and fyi i like the videos that have alot of finese tecniques since im in socal theres alot of clear pressured lakes .
love the small derbs! only way ur fans get a true experience of winning or loosing, we all follow the elites so we know exactly what the outcome is, thou either way i will watch them all 🤘
How come 6th since stopped making the deeper diving cranks in the custom bluegill and the perch patterns? Those are my favorite yet you guys stopped making them ???
Wow........I really dig you Ben,I know you get told this 1000 times a day "hey Ben let's go fishing...BUT I REALLY MEAN IT!!!!!!! "HAVE 3 HONEY HOLES ALL NEXT TO EACH OTHER AND THERE IS SOME MOSS DONKEYS IN THEM ...IM IN MISSOURI..LET ME KNOW.....
Are those videos where he shows himself weighing the fish is that how that tournament does their weigh in? How do they know everyone’s scale weighs the same? Do they check them? I’m just wondering because Im a kayak fisherman and I like the idea of this for a kayak since they always do length, I think I’d like to do weight sometimes haha
bid is at 2500, that's prices for rich folks lol .. my boat I paid 2000 for I will just keep plugging away on Chickamauga and Guntersville with a picture of you in the seat and say we went fishing together lol
So, i never caught the explanation that goes with the title of this video, they won’t let me fish it this keeps happening. Only reason, i clicked on the video
Ya I'm not real sure what the title has to do with the video. So many youtubers use clickbate titles then get annoyed when they get called out for it and try to act like it wasn't their intention to misslead people into watching a video for the dramatic action their titles lead the video is going to show.
Does everyone weigh the fish with the grippers as added weight like Ben did he zeroed the scale then clipped the grippers to the fish and weighed all his fish wouldn't you think zero the scale with the grippers attached so it not adding the grippers to the fish total
I think the day on the water with you is excellent, ... but the average fisherman can't afford 15,000.00 to fish with you. Question; ... did you ever consider having a raffle of sorts for 50.00 to 100.00 per ticket and draw the name during one of your days on the lake or tournament videos , ... to be able to spend a day on the water with you. And give the proceeds to a charity of your choice or the raffle winners choice or split it between the 2 charities. Anyway, ... your instructional videos are excellent, ty
Love your videos, you have a great sense of humor! But hold on, you can't zero your scale without that blue clamp, then include the blue clamp as part of your fish weight, LOL!
Yep everyone is instructed to clip the fish, then weigh the fish and the clip, to ensure a level playing field. Clip weighs maybe 2 ounces. Probably 1.
If you mean where was the tournament held, going by a previous comment, it was 315 acre Carter Lake on the border of Iowa and Nebraska (although Ben called it 100 acres).
I just started my RUclips journey soo one day i will be as good as you all problem is i only have a kayak but i also do a lot op competitions love the videos
You looked happy, even though you were in pain, and you had fun doing what you love man.....can't beat that anywhere!! Plus another W!! Congrats!!

Love those tournament videos... glad you are staying grounded Ben! I love seeing your success.
Glad to see ya hitting the ole stomping grounds. Big O has a bunch of great dudes!
Great seeing ya in local tournaments again, as real as it gets! Thanks for sharing!
Been loving the video’s recently, the elite series vids are good, but I’m loving the older style videos are always my favorite
Thanks dude!
Love these little 1 night derbys you record. Thanks.
Love those "working man" tourneys. Made some really good friends fishing those over the years. Great vid bud!
I miss your slaunchmaster tournaments, you drew 200 boats on my home lake and that was incredible!
Love it. Awesome vid with the curveball win.👌💪Good to see you out there, Ben, and building that pot..Good times!!🔥😎
Hell to tha Yeah BOOIII. There's just something about top water bass blow-ups!! Regardless, I legit get a ridiculous smile every time I get a noti saying the man, the myth, the legend just dropped another Banger, with some Lip Rippin 🎣💥👊🏻
Well done man, you can come fish our local tourneys any time, especially if you're gonna donate the proceeds back to the pot :) There's always a few locals who could use taken down a few notches.
Nice video. As an old guy with a new channel, I liked seeing how you were able to edit it down into a shorter format. 👍
Can’t wait to see the tuna videos man!!
Very cool to give winnings back to the local dudes! And still staying sharp. Hells yeah
Kick ass bro. So funny ya rolled and then they called ya saying you won. Surprised that 2nd didnt break 10lbs with 5 fish
I enjoyed this more than watching the elites. Those are good but you look so stressed. Here you are just relaxed and it's much better. Also, I like having those narrations on your newer videos (I think by Coleslaw). Keep doing those. Keep those lines tight.
Love Zark at the end!! That should be your outro from now on!! He’s a nut. Lol. Like the rest of us
Hey man love watching you smash them and then you won and you showed good sportsmen's ship by giving it back to the pot awesome man that showed goodness and loyalty of being a Professional Bass fisherman.
Ur bid is crazy compared to the rest… keep up the good work, already feel like I’m riding w u. 🔥🔥🔥
Good Lord man! I got stabbed by bass a few times before but I have never had one break like that in my skin. When I saw the clip I thought it was a piece of glass not a piece of bass. Fishing is a dangerous game.
Class act donating your winnings back to the pot for the other guys. Breath of fresh air.
Your the man Ben. True good sport. Can't wait for the next video
Awesome to donate the winnings back. Benefits you to stay sharp fishing tournaments and also benefits amateurs to fish against elite guys.
Pretty nice to be a fishing guy who has more lures hanging in their own garage then my local fishing store has on its shelves 😬🤣🤣🤣

Stay True Pony Boy (Outsiders). Very cool you donated to the pot. Keep up the good work!
Huge heart mate, good things coming for you next season 😎🇦🇺
with time running short, no love for the catfish. LOL

Bass fishing is becoming a joke
@@cameron3499🤡
Ben, you are good for Bass Fishing...Heep it up!
The auction is not fair. Some of us can't afford $10,000 fishing trip.
Congratulations on the win!
Love these tournament videos. Keep grinding ben 💪
What an ending 👏 congratulations on the random win a W is a W and you're a true sportsmen by donating the winningings back keep on shining ✨️ Ben and rippin lips
Good job paying it forward.
Cool video and that's awesome that you kicked back the winnings , definitely good karma!!
Another great video mfer you never know till you weigh in lol
Way to go .great sportsman ship

Fished that lake four days after that event and it was a very tough bite
Thanks again for another awesome video I really enjoyed it and as always I'm really looking forward to seeing the next video
You’re a good guy👍🏻 keep on buddy!
A cool video brother love watching peace out from Ohio Don T

I wish I could send the pic I have the gilliken tied on rn. 💪🏽🎣 definitely a fish catcher
Really strange, my neck has been locked up all week too brother!
Need that hole buzzard hat!
love the small derbs! only way ur fans get a true experience of winning or loosing, we all follow the elites so we know exactly what the outcome is, thou either way i will watch them all 🤘
Did you ever pick who won the tackle from the last video? You said the name would be in the description of the next video, I don’t see it.
Do you throw the crush 100 alot?
How come 6th since stopped making the deeper diving cranks in the custom bluegill and the perch patterns? Those are my favorite yet you guys stopped making them ???
Who won the fishing gear from last video?
That is a class act brother!! You got a loyal follower in me!!
Thats cool that you put the pot back into the kitty
Good job Ben🎉 sko fishing sometime
I like watching you use the FFS....where, when and HOW....videos.. I have the equipment...just not good at using it...
Really enjoyed this content
The bots are ridiculous
Wow........I really dig you Ben,I know you get told this 1000 times a day "hey Ben let's go fishing...BUT I REALLY MEAN IT!!!!!!! "HAVE 3 HONEY HOLES ALL NEXT TO EACH OTHER AND THERE IS SOME MOSS DONKEYS IN THEM ...IM IN MISSOURI..LET ME KNOW.....

I’m just wondering because Im a kayak fisherman and I like the idea of this for a kayak since they always do length, I think I’d like to do weight sometimes haha
Well I typed that before I finished the video and he explained it 😂 so, pretty cool, I like that idea!
bid is at 2500, that's prices for rich folks lol .. my boat I paid 2000 for I will just keep plugging away on Chickamauga and Guntersville with a picture of you in the seat and say we went fishing together lol
How much does the blue fish grip weigh lol? Looks like u zero scale out then hook fish grip to weigh fish
Awesome job brother
Thanks Ben.
that is definitely way more than a 100 acre lake.
Another Banger🙌🙌
Still the best outro
So, i never caught the explanation that goes with the title of this video, they won’t let me fish it this keeps happening. Only reason, i clicked on the video

So many youtubers use clickbate titles then get annoyed when they get called out for it and try to act like it wasn't their intention to misslead people into watching a video for the dramatic action their titles lead the video is going to show.
So what was the reason why you cant fish local tourneys anymore watxhed the whole vid i might have missed it.
Good ol carter lake
You mentioned "we' when talking about 6th Sense. Are you a part owner with Casey?
@@daviddarlingauthor he has been for a while
I feel like I’ve fished this lake many of times but then I don’t
I like the small derby’s
Ok I got to know what happened with the raccoon? Is it living a comfy like with Dave?
inspired by your success
Took a fin out of my shin the last time I fished the river. I bled like a sum bitch too and kept on rolling 💪
Them weighing tactics tho…😎
What about them?
Haha! Just bustin your 🥜 because you were zeroing the scale with the clasp on the fish already. 😂
I noticed the same thing
I’m a grudge racer! So…🤷🏼♂️😎😂😂
Love all the content but old school s$&” is my favorite!
Awesome stuff
Does everyone weigh the fish with the grippers as added weight like Ben did he zeroed the scale then clipped the grippers to the fish and weighed all his fish wouldn't you think zero the scale with the grippers attached so it not adding the grippers to the fish total
Yes, in this circuit all fish are weighed with the grippers included in the weight.
I think the day on the water with you is excellent, ... but the average fisherman can't afford 15,000.00 to fish with you.
Question; ... did you ever consider having a raffle of sorts for 50.00 to 100.00 per ticket and draw the name during one of your
days on the lake or tournament videos , ... to be able to spend a day on the water with you. And give the proceeds to a charity of
your choice or the raffle winners choice or split it between the 2 charities.
Anyway, ... your instructional videos are excellent, ty
Love your videos, you have a great sense of humor! But hold on, you can't zero your scale without that blue clamp, then include the blue clamp as part of your fish weight, LOL!
Yep the director tells everyone to weigh them with the clip, so it’s a level playing field.
they let you add the clip weight to the fish???
Yep everyone is instructed to clip the fish, then weigh the fish and the clip, to ensure a level playing field. Clip weighs maybe 2 ounces. Probably 1.
Lol
Cry about it
@@drj3033 if it is zeroed out everyone’s weight will be the same the ya re all using the same equipment
Ah man that’s not cool with neck hope that gets better man seriously ….
You zeroed the scale without the clamp on it!!
looks like a scale they supplied him with, probably instructed him to do it like that also.
@@colbyknowles7482correct
I'm guessing he knows how to fish any tournament by the rules. He's not a cheater he just grinds like everyone else.
GREAT video
I’m in Southern California, don’t know where you are.
If you mean where was the tournament held, going by a previous comment, it was 315 acre Carter Lake on the border of Iowa and Nebraska (although Ben called it 100 acres).
Minus the grippers weight x4 and what's the total
One gripper weight less than everyone who caught 5 fish, and one extra gripper weight than all the guys who only caught 3.
You should have some fan vs you challenges videosImnup for the challenge
Where is the 2025 Bassmaster classic going to be?
Lake Ray Roberts.
@@andywilliamson7846 thank you
I like the bot comments the best, they’re about sex toys, and romantic getaways! Lol!!
So when RUclips guys do something blatantly wrong, or in this case cheat on camera, it's on purpose to get the comment section fired up right?
I would love to fish with you I live in Texas in Houston
Yes
I just started my RUclips journey soo one day i will be as good as you all problem is i only have a kayak but i also do a lot op competitions love the videos
So fun to fish up a bank.
