Gerald said it best "I hope no one stumbles, I hope everyone brings their A game. I just need to bring my A+ game" a true professional deserving of one day being the Bassmaster Classic champion. Way to go Jordan though! I sense a 3peat, make history next year Jordan!
I know im asking randomly but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account? I was dumb lost my account password. I would love any tricks you can give me
I love it when you stop at the convenience store gassing up the truck and boat and someone asks..Going fishin'. Umm nope. I'm going to work. Have a nice day.
That must hurt. One fish shy, with the big one he missed on the hook set. Jason Christie seen lots of fish under docks that wouldn’t bite the chatter bait. Switch up, Senko, swim bait or crank bait/ jerk bait. I thought that’s why you have multiple rigged up rods in the boat?
I was pulling for Jacob Wheeler, but Jordan Lee had the better day out there. These guys work way harder to go out and catch bass than most give them credit for. Good Classic!!
@@killereaglez8115 I hear that Killer! It's easy to fish and forget about everything else. A sore arm you can barely move and a stomach growling for food are afterthoughts, lol.
Before the Jason Lees’, Mike Iaconellis’, Gerald Swindles’, Jason Christis’, Brent Ehrlers’, James Elams’, Kevin VanDams’....I thought you had to have a chunky Santa Clause type build to be a Great Angler...lol😉
Kenny Rogers said it best . Gotta know when to holdem, and know when to foldem.. Poor Jason, if he'd of grabbed his spinning rod he would of won this thing. Gotta be diverse.. doesn't hurt to try something fresh if you've only had one bite in 4 hrs. I respect his sticking it out though.. I also take my hat off to Mr. Jordan Lee. Congrats 💪💪
I wonder how the Crappie fishing is on that lake. BIG Bass love Crappies. Stripers? Hybrids? Muskie? Cats? I wonder if Brown Trout would survive in that lake, they get real big.
I wish they’d stop trying to turn this into the Super Bowl. I get why they do it...they’re competing with a lot of other media but still. I miss the days when bassmaster was dignified and all about the fishing. Now they have guys riding chariots into arenas, hosts imitating joe rogan and “the bite of the day brought to you by Burger Shwing (where you can have it your way)”. It just doesn’t have the same magic it did 25 years ago on TNN.
It was a dumb intro. The guy trying to describe winning a once in a life time competition by say it is a rare as Christmas 🤣 a yearly happening whether you like it or not. Not a great way to describe winning a Bassmater Classic I feel
How do you get into bass fishing, seems easy to only catch few fish with some weight. Im an upcoming perch/pike fisher in Sweden. Mostly perch fishing.
You move to the south or west of the US preferably, spent thousands on gear and a boat, pay big entrance fees into tournaments, and hope you catch five big ones in 8 hours. It looks easy, but these guys are reallllly good at this, it’s their livelihood and they practice constantly. They go all over the country to different bodies of water, use an array of tactics to fit the conditions and you’ve got to constantly be catching fish to be competitive. On a positive note, tournament fishing is super fun it’s enhances the rush of catching a big fish by a factor of 100.
j c I don't necessarily agree. I've fished a lot of tournaments. 8 this year so far including Canadian FLW and Bass Pro (my sponsor) Cups. I fished around both these guys multiple times, and Lee is great, but Christie is every bit as good. Fact is you can't fish bass that aren't there, but if you second guess yourself and bail on your plans, things just get worse. I mean, nobody is better than KVD, but he gets trounced all the time. Fishing is as much luck as skill at that level. I won tournaments I thought I had no business being in, and lost small local tournaments on lakes I know so well I shouldnt even need a fish finder. Christie is a much better bad weather fisherman than lee. Lee is a better low water top water fisherman by far. Other than that, is say they are pretty even.
coming from a dude that fished hundreds of tournaments including the bassmaster open series..you can almost tell by the attitude whether they have a shot to win or not. I admit when I first heard of mat and Jordan lee..i instantly didn't like them you have to understand the old school fisherman had to fish their way to the top. There was no way to buy your way there. Everyone at the time earned their right to be there. Jordan and matt lee had rich parents that got them into a rich school, where their father funded the entire fishing team. Don't get me wrong, he has earned his way ever since in fact one day hes going to be a truly great fisherman. All about the attitude..why Jason Christie is always bridesmaid never the bride..attitude.
“One day he’s going to be a truly great fisherman” ??????? I’m sorry but last I checked parents money can’t just get fish to bite a lure! Jordan Lee is already a truly great fisherman!
@@jeffsmith8958 highlighting your own replies now lol. you got to pick out one bad part of what I said. No money cant buy a bite, but takes money to get to that level of tournament. His dad completely funded his high school team and then made sure he got in a college that had a fishing team. Money cant buy it all, but money helps. I know truly great fisherman that have never and will never fish a BASS or FLW tournament for 1 reason lack of money. No he isn't great hes done great things. And if you ever fished before youd know that sometimes you can get lucky. But credits to 20 year old Jordan lee with 70 years bass fishing experience lol.
@@jeffsmith8958 he does have more talent than his brother will say that, that boy spent half the 2018 elite season not even getting a 5 bass limit..yet hes still there.. Money my friend money.
Nope never fished a BASS event. I don’t know how to highlight reply or what that even means so not sure what that is about. Matt Lee is a different story but Jordan Lee is already a great fisherman, no matter how he got there. Perhaps his brother shouldn’t be there although he’s made a number of 12 man cuts but Jordan doesn’t need to ever fish another tournament and he’ll be known as a great fisherman. Again, parents money can bring opportunity but it can’t put fish in your Live well. Plenty of fisherman have wealthy parents who’ve bought them $$$$ boats, all the gear in the world, own multiple lake homes, etc., but they don’t have 2 Bassmaster Classic trophies. I understand you’re overall point, I do, but to deny his greatness is silly.
The 2 things that absolutely SUCK about B.A.S.S..... 1. They took the Co-Anglers away 2. They do not go to the West Coast. Even in their own magazine 2 of the top 5 best bass fisheries, they won’t go too. Clear Lake and The Delta. MLF is gonna blow these guys away 2019. To many pros are leaving to fish it.
I disagree after watching the first MLF event. I just don’t like the format I think tournament bass fishing should always be the heaviest 5 bass limit wins. I don’t mind the releasing of fish, the penalties, but the 3 periods and change of the entire scoring process just didn’t meet the hype for me. I liked MLF as kind of an offshoot type deal, kind of like a change of pace to BASS or FLW. The technology aspect and live scoring is nice but BASS can add that too!
How Gay are you 2 ? One has no idea what he is talking about, and the other can't spell. Sounds like a match made in Heaven. Who's gonna play the part of the sheep? Never mind..Keep that between you lovers.
It would be awesome to have some more people. I think it is gonna take a lot more underrepresented groups to start trying because bass fishing is purely meritocracy. Fish dont know or care who you are and only the biggest bags can win.
Why should BASS have to do anything about it? There is not one single rule or condition for fishing their tournaments that does one single solitary thing to prevent ANYONE from fishing in their tournaments. There is not one single thing in any sporting goods store that would keep anyone of any race from purchasing any piece of fishing tackle from the plastic worms to a bass boat. I have seen plenty of people of color who have bass boats and fish on a regular basis and have better equipment than I do. If you are black, white, brown, red, green orange or blue. You are welcome to come fish in a BASS sponsored tournament. What do you think BASS should do about it, have an all black fishing tournament? Kinda racist thing to do don't you think?
Anyone else watching waiting in 2019 waiting on this years classic ?🤙🏻

joshua reeves wellllllll he is fishing the 2019 classic. So how you feel?
I know im asking randomly but does someone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account?
I was dumb lost my account password. I would love any tricks you can give me
@Judah Otto instablaster =)
Who else is re-watching this in 2022 getting excited for another Classic on Hartwell?
2024 I'm watching it again man I love fishing pray one day I can fish a big fishing tournament
Incredible
I love it when you stop at the convenience store gassing up the truck and boat and someone asks..Going fishin'. Umm nope. I'm going to work. Have a nice day.
I tell them "No I'm cutting the grass. Why do you ask?"
Best coverage ever!

As rare as Christmas 🤣 good opening statement to the final day 😂
What a day Jordan 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
I was pulling for Jacob Wheeler, but Jordan Lee had the better day out there. These guys work way harder to go out and catch bass than most give them credit for. Good Classic!!
I throw a deep 15 x crank bait.i throw it atleast 300 plus rimes during a typical day of fishing , and my wrists feel broken.
@@killereaglez8115 I hear that Killer! It's easy to fish and forget about everything else. A sore arm you can barely move and a stomach growling for food are afterthoughts, lol.
@ bigbearfishing thats what separates people who like to fish and people that LIVE to bass fish!
@@killereaglez8115 Well said!
Really awesome stuff
Great job J. Lee.
Pretty awesome stuff
That was a good one!
J LEE IS A BEAST
I feel bad for Brent. He gets so close to winning Classics every time and comes up short by so little.
Before the Jason Lees’, Mike Iaconellis’, Gerald Swindles’, Jason Christis’, Brent Ehrlers’, James Elams’, Kevin VanDams’....I thought you had to have a chunky Santa Clause type build to be a Great Angler...lol😉
joshua reeves LOLzzz 😅
Who's Jason lee? You mean the Jason Lee that works down at the corner store? He's got a gut.
Kenny Rogers said it best . Gotta know when to holdem, and know when to foldem..
Poor Jason, if he'd of grabbed his spinning rod he would of won this thing. Gotta be diverse.. doesn't hurt to try something fresh if you've only had one bite in 4 hrs.
I respect his sticking it out though..
I also take my hat off to Mr. Jordan Lee.
Congrats 💪💪
This guy will surpass kvd pretty soon, as well rounded as you see, deep, shallow and in between most guys are good at one
I feel like most guys at that level are good at everything, but some may be great at one thing.
That's a mighty lofty goal, no need to think of that yet.
If by soon you mean in like 15 years
Soon.... slow down there.
I dont know about that he is a great angler but KVD has won 4 bassmaster i think like 6 Angler of the year awards over 20 career wins hard to beat
Very Nice
Confetti in his mouth at 12:42 ...... 😂
"Just what the dock tor ordered"
Lol!
Jordan lee hottest pro bass fisherman in the world and what does he say at the beginning off the day have fun thats what it is all about
Jay Rod The Fish Damager ; look what he did last year on the final day, 27+ pounds bag to win the 2018 Bassmaster Classic; W O W
Jordan didn't shake Christie's hand as well... come on nowwww
I wonder how the Crappie fishing is on that lake.
BIG Bass love Crappies.
Stripers?
Hybrids?
Muskie?
Cats?
I wonder if Brown Trout would survive in that lake, they get real big.
Anyone know what kind of scales they’re using on their boats? I’m trying to purchase an accurate scale.
Ivan Ramos just the big rapala scale with the fish gripper
Get a boga grip
What is Jason Christy's Weigh in Song??
Dont like bass but this fishing looks great
They Should host a tourny at lake mcclure. The bass eats the stock trout
The drone lol
SICK SICK SICK its a disease i have it bad.
I contracted ligma the other day.
What kind of culling system is Jacob Wheeler using?
Bill Pool clip n cull
Thanks

Huh? I am sitting down?
Salty could you could never do this? Lmao

What gets me is, Jason Christie throwing that chatterbait all day long. 🤔 It truly cost him the classic.
he did what he had confidence in
I kind off agree. Some spinners in the docks might have helped.
he even said he would do it the same the next day. dude he needed 9lbs to win. DAMNIT. skip the senko
Christies a powerfisherman,, jordan lee is simply more versatile,, and versatility is the most important factor in winning at this level.

Hey Bassmaster ( ° ͜ʖ͡°)╭∩╮
Spoiler alert
The 2 things that absolutely SUCK about B.A.S.S.....
1. They took the Co-Anglers away
2. They do not go to the West Coast.
Even in their own magazine 2 of the top 5 best bass fisheries, they won’t go too. Clear Lake and The Delta.
MLF is gonna blow these guys away 2019. To many pros are leaving to fish it.
To, too, two. Now you cant go wrong. Oh wait...you have to have been to elementary school to know how to use them. Sorry. You are on your own now.

This aged poorly
first!
lol how gay... jason aldean....
How Gay are you 2 ? One has no idea what he is talking about, and the other can't spell. Sounds like a match made in Heaven. Who's gonna play the part of the sheep? Never mind..Keep that between you lovers.
the intro was over-hyped, over-produced, and cringe-worthy
Cringy intro just get to the point
I'd like to know why there isn't more diversity in professional bass fishing And what Does B.A.S.S plan to do about it.
It would be awesome to have some more people. I think it is gonna take a lot more underrepresented groups to start trying because bass fishing is purely meritocracy. Fish dont know or care who you are and only the biggest bags can win.
Why should BASS have to do anything about it?

Doesn’t have anything to do with diversity, the best of the best get there and that’s that
I like BASS just the way it is. Thanks, anyway buddy
