Great video Ben! Appreciate you taking the time to take us along with you on your journey. Really like the way you don't hide things and openly share to help others. #MillikenFishing rocks!
Ben! I was up on Kerr for a three day tournament and it was TOUGH! I only caught 7 bass all weekend! You did phenomenal despite the fishery!
Your a monster bro! I gotta say hands down I've never seen anyone utilize the livescope as well as you do and you also have gotten me into big swimbaits more than I was before I've learned a lot about them from your channel! Good luck on the tourneys!
What I like about watching you, you keep it real. Day 2. Literally nothing but 1 decent bass, and you let that be shown raw for what it is. Which is very much a part of bass fishing. You're a pro, no doubt ✌️
Kerr is a home lake for me and is a tough one about 70% of the time but its rewarding as well....Keep on pushing forward!! You'll do big things!!!Seen my house at 4:32😂 #benfortheclassic
Got the binoculars huh? Nice. 😂
lol #benfortheclassic
Ben, your tournament footage and commentary is the best I've ever experienced. BAR NONE. Better than all other RUclipsr's and even better than watching the major tournaments live. Very immersive and honest content. Keep it up, Ben!
The ending of this video made my stomach and arms hurt! Ozzy was being relentless!!
Ben, thanks for all the great instruction. That's what I prize most about your channel, and congratulations on your success in the tournament fishing, you've earned it!
Good stuff....enjoying seeing all the prep and prefishing. Hammer down🐟🐟🐟
Ur my inspiration 4yrs ago and running. Thanks for all the entertaining and informative content. Good luck n keep kickn butt at the Bass masters events.
Good luck Ben. You have literally have a million people rooting for you my man.
What a great job with the videography/scripting etc. Very fun to watch. Love to see your kid jumping while you catch her, I remember those days with my daughters, they are in college now, enjoy it while you have the energy :). Good luck in the tourney.
Love it all brother, thanks for sharing the highs and some of the lows. Real fishin!
This place is amazing, it has big fish.👍🎣
Congratulations, you have a fantastic fishing tackle.
I loved the video.
Hugs from Brazil.🥰
Let's go Milliken
Best of luck to you! Looks tough but you can do it. I fished a tournament, we couldn't catch squat. I remember saying nobody will have any numbers or weight. Some had over 25 lbs. That's when I realized people had to be offshore, catching fish. I hadn't ever caught on.
Wish I couldsee you while you're here didn't even notice you posted this 4 hrs ago and I'm so happy I did
Grew up fishing Kerr/Buggs back in it's prime of the late 90's. Water used to get way up in the bushes and stay there all spring making it so fun to fish. 3 and 4 pound fish were the norm. Then the bass virus hit and the lake doesn't get high like that anymore so it's just not the same. I still enjoy watching you guys fish it though. Brings back memories!!
This the first time I've seen you in my neighborhood this is so awsome just knowing your fishing in my hometown
Ben i want to thank you. Me and my Pops completed out first tournament last weekend. We have the 04 fish finder which came with my nitro in 04, and it don't work for shiznit. However we didn't get skunked and it was a blast. I had the name Miliken in my head the whole day. I believe it helped. Good luck Big Ben 💪.
Let's Go Big Ben , good luck all season , I know you finished 62 , that was better than 158 others. It can't be easy with that many boats, cold and windy or rainy high waters . It was tough for everyone a couple had a good day
I live not far from there! Wish I would have known, could have stopped and said hello. Keep doing your thing! ✌️🎣
Been watching you grow for 5 years but the bass masters! Love watching you fish. Showed me many in and outs on bass fishing. Go get them killer! Rooting you on from ohio!
Buggs is my home lake so I know how much of a struggle it can be. That's just how it is because the water level changes so much with the hydro dam. There's never a pattern that's lasts for more than 3 days. I truly believe if you can consistently catch nice fish on buggs for a year you can catch them in any lake in the country. I'm not there yet myself but I'm learning every trip.
These are my favorite types of fishing videos. The grind is what separates the best from the above average
I,m pretty sure tough fishing in practice, means lights out during the tournament! Go getem!
My goodness. Super tough lake! Keep on pushing! NEVER GIVE UP!!!
Loved the video,that place can be really tough,hate I couldn't get off work to come hang out nice job out there and good luck on the next one 👊
Im a daddy of a gorgeous 6 yr old. I feel a deeper appreciation of your dedication and life. Your vids somehow inspire me to try something new every single trip now, as if that is why I’m going in the first place. Totally new perspective on bass fishing……after over 40 years of it. Started at age 10.
I love the flashy swimmer as well. Same deal here in Wisconsin. A lot of guys are throwing the same thing while I'm throwing a flashy swimmer. Gets me a lot more bites than others. GL on the next tourney
I'm about 6 hours north west of Kerr in wv, i fish md, WV, VA, and PA, and man the wind has been nonstop since last October. I'm on a kayak, so most days all I can do is find a protected pocket or cove, or creek arm if I'm lucky and hide out and fish that. Main lake the wind just takes you. Theyll call for 5 to 10, and it'll end up 20 to 40 with 50 mph gusts. You're doing great man, it's been colder this year for this season, so the fish have been funny. Youre doing fine man, keep your head up, you got this shit
Good luck man!! Looks like it's going to be a hard one. That's what makes you a great fisherman!!!
It's over...he placed 62
Hey Ben, Welcome to herring lake fishing. It is the most grindful thing that you will do. I do think it makes you a better fisherman because you soon learn how to catch those 3-4 lb spots consistently. Which can win you tournaments. Loved the video, love that you don't hide anything and I loved especially the old grey face that was laying in the back of the truck on trip.....
Great Fisherman but an even better dad! Love these videos so much.
Super pumped, keep it up Ben!
Ben--sure like the way of your video , it is real, great videos, of the ups and downs fisherman have, i know you will stick them, tight lines , and be safe on the water, like to see you bring the family along , most fisherman don't or cant bring the family, along, it helps sometimes . to have them with you.
This the only youtube channel that keeps me tuned in great work bro I fished kerr at anglers choice worse wind I bever been in. Caught so many striper geezzz wish it was a striper tournament 😆
Very cool to see you come to a fishery so close to my home. Kudos to you for sticking it out on a stingy buggs island lake 🤙🏼
Yes man! All in one day BTL and this upload! We are loving this ride brother!
Your so knowledgeable about fishing it's incredible. Your doing great bro, just keep doing what your doing. Your gonna win some, your gonna lose some...that's just how it is
Great video, Ben. Love all your tournament content. Pre /during/post . Not all roses, but thats the way It truly is. Love it all. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Stars
Just realized I fished against you in the 2014 National Championship on Keowee. When you said you were there 10 years ago I couldn't believe it! Keep killing in the Opens!!
Good luck Ben. Thanks for sharing 🎣 great video 📹 👍
Come on baby! Ben, I got to say, because of you I am starting tournaments in September with the Florida bass nation! Thank you for all that you post and you should be in the elite rn! Keep it up bro
Good luck on the derbs man. Hope you hammer them
@@jordonpratt2604 thanks bro!
I love all of your videos man, I’m guessing you don’t have much time but I would love to see you fish some of the bigger ponds on cape cod many of them get pretty deep for ponds and they hold big fish in them
Hey Ben, having fun with my new rods, so far I’ve got the 7’11” swimbait rod, The Zark, and the 7’7” flipper. Have a few mini draws coming, Boosa’s, axles, and few Catwalks also. Gonna be a busy week at my crib. Looking forward to playing with some new sh**. Patiently waiting for the new line thru. It’s an exciting time at 6th Sense. Really appreciate any tips you may have on the new gear. I watch every vid. So I’ve seen the new tips thus far. Let you know how they work for us amateur’s lol. Good luck man!! Hey P.62 ain’t so bad for your first time on a completely new fishery. Hell there were over 200 of you guys, I’m sure you’re not too happy with that but hey, thank goodness there aren’t many highlands on the tour.
You sir are utterly blessed 🙏
I love the new draws they are dope little baits, I have been catching them on the new swim jigs too. 6th sense just is on another level
Ben was lucky enough to meet you at the bass pro shop U.S. Open sat with you for the angler meeting my daughter and I also meeting you. following your tournaments this year and enjoying all your content good finish at a tough fishery very impressive stuff you’re putting out man can’t wait to see what happens with the rest of the year good luck. And how are you liking those Buzbee boxes ?
U beeeeetttt that was awesomeness for bringing us along for the ride to make ur way to be Mr.Bassmaster Champion Ben Milliken!!! I can't wait to see that happen..good on ya Ben keep it up..later
I think the locals pronounce the lake name "Carr." You may have heard that.
Those stripers are everywhere sometimes but they can be hard to catch.
You are correct about the pronunciation. I grew up on that lake. Always laugh when people refer to it as 'kerrrrrr'.
Great video. Kerr is a tough lake. You grinder and figured out how to catch decent limits and stay in contention.
Hey Ben, so I live on Buggs and was following the tournament. I was driving next to you on the interstate between Durham and Greensboro on Friday....hoped you would pull over but your kidney was tougher than mine. Best of luck the rest of the season!
Best of luck! Keep grinding, you got this.
Such a genuine guy, love this milliken.
Man I was hoping ol' buggs was going to show out for you. Kerr is high pressured. Not just bass fishing tournament but you also got some big catfish tournaments too. Some big blue catfish there that's for sure. Big gizzard shad too. I have picture somewhere of my grandpa. Holding a stringer of bass at the end of a two day tournament. Back when they kept the fish they caught or gave them away before live wells! The smallest bass was five pounds out of ten fish, big bag. In the ninety's had a bad fish kill on the lake then again in early 2000's. Making it a though on catching bigger bags. Ben you're still my hero brother, you'll get next time. Virginia this year been fucked up weather this spring. Just crazy weather! Wishing you the best dude!
Seems like the quality of fish is on the decline again. My dad remembers the good days before the LMB disease hit and everything after that. I can remember us going down over the past 6 years or so and catching quality fish. But between this year and last year our trips have not been as good. And this year has been noticeably worse than last year so far.
keep up the great work man! i'm making plans to come down to Tulsa for the Classic it's my Birthday March 21! I went to Tulsa for the 2016 Bassmaster classic when Edwin Evers won it. It will be nice to go back and watch my favorite angler hammer em!!!
I grew up fishing Kerr, Gaston and Falls lake in NC. Kerr is just coming off the heels of a massive fish kill but even before that happened, a 3-5lber on Kerr was a good fish.
Yo, sweating your journey with your vids. Not looking up your standings online. Can't wait for the next vid to see how you are doing in the tourney. Proud of you, say hi to Cole!!
Bush hawg’s are my specialty, flip around that exact prawn you show🤙🏼
That purple junebug color SLAPS
To be honest Ben, I like the fishing out deep with livescope because thats what Im trying to learne the most about right now! I mainly walleye fish but its the same concept!
Great video, I’ll be pulling for you!!! Also I saw your orkin commercial,cool beans!!!
Let’s go man I wish I was closer I’d definitely be there for you but I know you’ll kill it like you know how to!
Congratulations on all you’ve done achieved I really appreciate all the content you put out I’m one of your biggest MFR’s Ben you are going to be one of the greats brother i knew it around the fifth or sixth video I asked why he not getting that classic money and now look at you that really motivated me to get into it slow starting in my first bass club learning from you I’m 17th in the club ranking because of what I learned from you everybody laughed at me when they seen the big swimbait and big glide bait but they believe now but anyway you’re the mfkn truth congrats and keep busting heads
Ole Ben, hammer down on the grinder. Great job getting it done.
Time for a sponsorship with SafeLight Auto Glass windshield repair!!!! LOL Good luck this season!
Holy crap Ben, I never would have realized but I fished against you at Keowee in 2014!!! More exciting for me than for you obviously but cool to know. Sonoma State University.
We're rooting for you!
Love to see ya come to Va! You should come visit Smith mountain. You won’t be disappointed
Cole with the edits!! Feels like a frigin docuseries😅
Never eaten a striper??? Oh man lol, they're delicious. I'm here in the Upper Chesapeake Bay and spend my Late Winter/Spring/Summer/Early Fall fishing for largies, but as soon as September/October hits I don't even think about largemouth anymore. Strictly striper fishing off points, rock piles, etc. They are a ton of fun that time of year and they get huge. They fight hard, way harder than any largemouth I've ever caught.
I knew had ruff you were having it when I seen the wing ding come out. I can't remember the last time I seen you use one of those.
You're better than I am at talking on camera, even with a toddler trampolining off your stomach. Props for that lol
Ouch !! Rough tournament.. that’s aight, you got plenty more to go.
You may have just become my favorite fishing streamer from @22:00-23:00 lmfao. "Oh hell Bobby, that doesn't even make sense, I was high when I said that. You can be 2nd, you can even be 3rd or 4th, hell you can even be 5th.
Awesome! Not sure what 402 means to you but it’s the world to me because it’s my badge number! Keep rocking it and keep rippin lips bro!
Nebraska area code where Ben is from
Great job. Outstanding video quality and content
Should do the 402 shirt in the long sleeve hooded fishing style shirts. I’d definitely rock it!
WOW, lots to deal with!!! Best of luck!!!
Lets go Ben! For how much work in and what you do for other fisherman, you deserve every bit of the success you get. You help break down and actually teach people how to get better at fishing. Not some stupid “$50 Walmart challenge”. Also how does talking to Fish the Moment help you break down and analyze a lake?! I struggle on Lake Norman (Charlotte, NC)
LETS GO!!!another awesome video and you got this bro
Go at it as hard as that little girl tried to fly and you'll be fine,lol. You got this man, catch'um up..402 baby....
rain coming in this weekend temps have been jumping all over the place from 45 to 80 around kerr lake
Can’t wait for this!! This is pretty much my hometown lake
You got this man! On to the next.
Shirt ordered. GBR. Keep the great videos coming.
🎉congrats brother!
I'm more impressed with the energy of your kid at the end if the video
Niceeee... boxer/Golden duo we have the same. Good fish finders!!!
Best of luck Ben!
Best of luck. NC is a beautiful State. Enjoy it and try not to over think.
Thanks for bringing us with on your dream run...
Go Getem Big Ben! That your in the game, Makes us MFerrrs Proud and besides you have Coleslaw there for luck!
Let’s go! Cant wait for next year at Tulsa
Keep the faith bud you are still in this
My MAN!!! Can’t wait for the next one! Thanks my dude 🌳😎🌲.
Keep’em cummin
Coke has been killing it on the editing on these tourney vids
The 1 time you are close to my home, I can't make the tourney!!! I knew it was gonna be tough, but thats how it is in Kerr. Good luck in the other derbys
Need to see where you caught all these fish, so I can hit up those spots up! Lol
A bad day for ya and you’re still having a good time. Stay humble and remember you’re doing what you love!
I live about an hour from Kerr lake and from all of my experiences fishing there it has always been a feast or famine lake for me...
Keep up the good work milkin❤
