Brother I'm actually proud of the humility and honesty. I finished tournaments for years in South Carolina and had to have licenses in every state that bordered each lake and it's hard to keep up with. I'm also happy that the other influencers we're kind enough to wait until they got all the information and didn't just jump on with both feet with inaccurate accusations. Brother this is the worst thing that happens to you that's still a pretty good day. Thanks for your content I really enjoy watching your shows
What honesty? Either you had a fishing license or you didn't when you caught the fish. Licenses expire in Texas on August 31 so if you didn't you were probably fishing without a license for half the year. It's not like this is a border water confusion of the law. He is a Texas resident and was fishing in Texas FFS.
I'm from Anderson County South Carolina, and was just curious why you needed separate state license. Was it the check-in sites or something else? How well did you do? Did you ever meet Ashley the Bass master tournament winner?
@@carlsutherland3730 back when I was fishing tournaments on I think it was Strom Thurmond they changed the name to something we had to have a Georgia license and a South Carolina license and I think know it wasn't heartwell . But there were tournaments where I had to have a Florida Georgia license in South Carolina Georgia license Davie heights was in my Bass club back in the day lake Murray bassmasters and my parents sell the house on lake wateree in Hank Parker used to fish over there a lot and I used to talk to him all the time
This is true. Free publicity is probably a bonus. His name is rapidly becoming well known. I've been following since he was mixing it up with Stache (Josh).
YEAH FOR BEING A CHUMP!!!! THE TEXAS FISHING LICENSE IS A LOUSY $25 PER YEAR!!! THAT SHOWS HOW MUCH RESPECT HE HAS FOR HIS NEW HOME STATE!!!!! GO BACK TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM!!!
You weren't arrested for fishing. You were arrested for knowing the fish wasn't legal in the tourney but yet you still tried to skirt the system. You got arrested for fraud plain and simple
Great video Ben. Always fun watching you catch biguns. Got faith the TPWD and you will do the right thing in the mix up. Thanks Boss for the entertainment 😁👍💯
I hope everything works out okay for you . Thanks again for another awesome video I really enjoyed it and as always I'm really looking forward to seeing the next video
So sorry this happened to you, Ben I’ll be standing with you your whole process through this. I will pray that this gets calm and that you’ll be able to get back to tournaments.
I stand with you as always brother. I just hate seeing other RUclipsrs making videos about your legal situation trying to boost their views when they truly know nothing about what your going through. Love you brother. #MFER4LIFE
Always someone busting your nuggets. You are legit. Any MFER that's followed you for years knows that. Thank you for your honesty. You have my support.

You got arrested for lying on your application for big fish. No license. Your rep is down the drain.
Yep,he wrote down a false fishing license number on the submission,just made up a number because he didn’t have a valid one,he’s got everyone thinking that he was fishing with an expired 2023 license in the year 2024 and he “forgot “ to renew it,that’s not the case that’s why he’s charged with fraud in a fishing tournament and not fishing in a tournament without a license,there is a big difference
Do you live in Texas? I do. I went to go fishing one day about 6 months ago so I opened my Texas PArks and Wildlife app on my phone. The app said my license was "active".....I thought about it for a few minutes and it didnt sound right. When I got to the lake I opened up the application and clicked on the 2024 year and it still said active even though it showed my expiration date which was expired. I'm not a ditch pickle guy. I think bass fisherman are kind of assholes. TPWD isnt a perfect system. No way a guy like Milliken was trying to submit a trophy bass knowingly on a expired license. Mistakes happen and loser/haters like you show up and pile on his mistake.
Why do I feel like Zark shouldve been arrested with you? HAHAHA He's going to feel sooooo left out lol. Can't wait to hear what the hell you did, or didn't do lol. Good times! Glad you made bail and can keep fishing! Team M'FER here!
Ayo that's nuts been seeing this blow up its not that bigger a deal law man hahaha still seen even more stupid reasons for someone to get arrested FAM KEEP THAT CHIN UP EYES TO CREATOR N GRIND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR LIL FAMILY BIG UPS BREDREN ❤😂🙏🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
@ I just don’t feel like they should be throwing his name out there and trying to make a dollar of it and make it out to be something more than what it is
Been following you for awhile. It crazy how people are already trying to bad mouth you. I’m sure whatever happened will be ok. In the mean time, keep doing what you’re doing. People are jealous and haters gonna hate. Was cool to watch you do some salt water fishing. Keep on rollin’ dude!
Did u have weights in fisshhh?? 😂😂😂 dam i just typed ur channel in and clicked on one of the vidoes its sad how many people are hating on u about this arrest deal, f'n wild.. keep grindn out there love the content bruddah
Hey ben!? Your Face is ALLLLL over you tube😂😂 i never thought i'd feel weirded out over your amazing smile😂... oh btw. Didnt know trying to save the fisheries would ever land some1 in jail.. but enjoy the checks coming people from youtube click baits..lol
Ben I've always enjoyed your videos brother but were did you get those pants did you get them from bozo the clown dam it man they are wild looking haha hahaha 🤣
I fished for a year without a valid license. I have three that cover the entire lake and not a single one was valid. I was fishing with a friend at Guntersville and we saw the warden checking another boat. I pulled out my phone to have my license handy and it was out of date over a year. I quickly did the renew online and when checked my license was valid :-) Thank goodness I was in an area of good cell service!
All support over here in Massachusetts. Been watching watching fornyears and your a huge inspiration. Love the mug shot by the way. Capitalize on the merch lol 😅
Such an unfortunate set of circumstances. Its absolutely wrong how they went about this. For someone who does so much for bass fishing and the ShareLunker program you didnt deserve this. Whoever initiated this whole fiasco has to put up with their pitiful self everyday. Keep up the great vids and keep catching Gina!!!
I honestly don't care what happend! I've watched you for years so I know you know what yr doing and thats all we need to know! Just keep fishing and show us them GINA's! ❤for u and ur family!
tex dont mess around, home state? no license man ,good luck brother..... i hung a big one during the lake fork tourney "big bass splash " as a out of state guy man giving it to share a lunker was a nightmare.....
Bruh! Shit happens. I've been fishing since I was 13 (1989) and 30+ years later, I've still forgotten to renew my license at times. Hell, just the other day I had to renew because I forgot because I hadn't gone fishing in quite a while because of work. This reminds me of the time I caught a tagged bass for the BassCashBash that was bedding and I had to let her go, register, and spent a week trying to recatch her off the bed to get the tag. Just keep catching those Ginas!
Haha top story on my Google search! You've made your way I believe! Sweet trousers Fr but damn that spinner did some work! Shit that's a dream day of fishing for most but I'll drop some funds in your canteen if it comes down to it👊
i love toledo bend. family has been fortunate to own a camp house on the south side around 6 mile so been fishing it longer than i can remember. it was really nice before it was labeled best bass fishing lake and everybody was crowding rayburn. got a lot more traffic i just wish sabine river authority would update the boat lanes bc there are a few markers that have drifted a good bit and the markers themselves dont have the correct markings on them like they are suppose to.
If it was in NE Sarpy county just take the diversion course and you're a free man haha. Seriously you'll be alright dude, keep bringing the faith and cool vibes and vids
There was a guy that submitted a legacy class SAL on Lake Athens last spring (February 19th to be exact) that didn't have a valid fishing license. Within a few hours of the submission, it was deemed NOT a legal SAL and everybody went their separate ways. Was he charged/arrested? Nope!
I know 5 guys from Prison that already subscribed to the channel this could be a blessing in disguise . I love the hat logo way many cry babies out there where can i get one✌️
Keep them lines tight bro and keep smashing. Enjoying the content. Anyone who keeps up-to-date on bass fishing knows pretty much exactly what happened. As far as the haters they just jealous as Fk. Frosty said it best sausage measuring contest.
Yeah but won't happen. Too many states and people and $$$ involved. It's not like we don't get taxed on the equipment we buy in extra taxes that covers way more than the license Renewal fee...
So the information I read was that he was arrested for fraud because he fished the tourney w/o a valid license THEN got a license AFTER submitting the fish. Since the jackpot was 10k or greater, it qualifies for fraud. He wasn't arrested for fishing!
Another good video mate. I live in Australia, where I'm from we don't need a licence, seems like another bullshit law to me! Why can't people just register as a fisho and then your done for life? I fish for Giant freshwater Cod, I own a Ranger, my tackle box has a decent amount of 6 sense lures because of you. Wish I could get some of your merch down here. You're a funny bugga Keep on trucken mate 🍻
When are you making the mug shot T shirt Ben
I'll buy one
Should be on the 6s site tomorrow 👍🏻
@@MillikenFishing I gotta have one... hell maybe two!!! lol.

Do you deserve to be arrested for them pants? Possibly.

Good thing about the arrest is that you get free publicity on every fishing site there is. It’s all about perspective

Stop lying (again). Kind of ironic that you’re lying saying you got arrested for fishing when you actually GOT ARRESTED FOR LYING. Keep it classy.

Any elite serious angler shouldn't need a license to fish any state or just pay one fee to fish the whole country.
This☝🏾Maybe an annual license from your state + a $300 fee to fish every other state.
