I just fished a lopro wildcat at Gville Allred ramp that Ben fished also. It was surreal looking around before takeoff with Ben,Gman ,Cory Johnston and I'm sure i missed some other Pros ,there was several wrapped boats. It was best three and i felt ok with 14+lbs ,thought it would take 16lbs or so. Those HAMMERS rolled in and hurt my feelings bad. I was so starstruck i can't remember who it was but 20.01lbs won it with 8lbs11ozs taking big fish. But getting my ass kicked by a truly great group of guys was a blast. Talked to Ben and he was genuine down to earth dude but talking with Cole was the real treat.
That top water bite is what we all want to see, keep crushing it Ben… I’ve been smacking them on the frog like crazy and my biggest this year is a 3 pounder. But fishing from shore with no electronics is a whole different ball game in NY
You are by far my favorite channel to watch just in general. Love the energy always have a winning attitude you make me want to be a fish catching machine. Mfers for life!!!!!!
What to do when fish jump? I fished a lake in San Diego for 25 years that barbless only (Barrett Lake) ...100 fish days are not uncommon so I got to fuck around with them a lot to see how they'd stick or not. Here's my take: keep pressure by raising the rod STRAIGHT up high as they jump so you feel the weight of the fish (never to the side), but be careful to NOT let sudden slack happen when they hit the water ...I'd always try to "finesse" them back into the water, feeling the weight with the rod bent. I lost very few. Hope that helps ....tight lines!
Thank you Ben. I know you’re in a little rut but you knew this shit wouldn’t be easy. I see you bouncing back in the next two derbies. Say, what about a Slaw interview on the rise of Ben to the elites and how he has been feeling and soaking it in?
You're a pro and I just love fishing but I've always pull them/realed them through jumps. You got to keep them pinned brother! Thanks for another great video.
High 60's low 70s are a standard. But trust me anything over 50 on the water looks fast and it's gonna feel just like a real car wreck hitting the water at 70 plus mph..
Hey Ben just a quick question. I want to hear from another pro on his opinion on how Zaldaine handled the situation on his channel with the local guys on Murray? I’ve talked with other people and I have my opinions but just wanted to hear from another pro. Keep up the great videos! Make that push to make the Classic baby
3.49 for gas? It's 2.81 here in Missouri! Love your vids man, found your channel through Josh PigPatrol years ago and been enjoying watching you as a pro!
Are they allowing Cole to be on the boat with you as your cameraman? I mean you would think that bass would do that especially for guys that are promoting BASS through their own brands...
Hey Ben. You still selling those swimbaits that move through the water like a hot dog? The hungover ones? I’m trying to find one so I can show my friend how terrible it is. We’re doing a challenge on who can find the worst baits
@@Sauce-mm7uk I wasn't even remotely being serious bud.. I was actually poking fun at the fact that it's part of being a RUclipsr.. but at the same time it is reality, and Coleslaw is one of the best in the game at the camera work an the editing and Ben has been doing it so long he knows what shots will make really good thumbnails! All good✌️
FYI - I know snitches get stitches. so, go back and do some editing. QUICKLY. Or own it. Your call bro. I noticed it immediately. Someone else/ a hater will too.

Living the dream

Awesome episode. Nicely executed. Stay lifted my friend!
Ben it must be awesome to fish for a living
Good luck MR Ben 19:31 me and my boy going by on the lake chanting you on
You are by far my favorite channel to watch just in general. Love the energy always have a winning attitude you make me want to be a fish catching machine. Mfers for life!!!!!!
Great to see you on the contender series and hanging with the pros. Keep up the hard work.
well done Ben, brilliant as always
Very nice sir! Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you professional career!

My MAN!!! Awesome tournament video my dude! Finish the season strong 💪🏽. We behind you all the way! 🌲😎🌳 Keep’em cummin
That blazer airing it out! 🔌 🚶♂️
What happened to the sea brakes?
I'm also from the 402. Great video. Love your content.
Probably every morning before they head out
Ben: Yeah imma get everything ready to go
Cole: yeah imma go finda spiderweb
Congratulations!!!
Great video bro!👊
whens your next tournament with zark?
Do u think top water from shore is good
Let me know just started bass fishing last year
Of course it is under the right conditions
@@jprizzle2604 thank u
Damn 650 Blazer rolling up goes hard
The Ricky Bobby inspired wrap is fire 🔥 in person
The Webster’s unabashed dictionary defines a boat : ( noun) a hole in the water into which money is thrown .
That top water hit and land was fucking awesome! 💪🏻

Never see ol slaw on video anymore?? It's nice to see loyalty to a camera guy/friend. Don't see it much in the RUclips world.
You're a pro and I just love fishing but I've always pull them/realed them through jumps. You got to keep them pinned brother! Thanks for another great video.
Way to go Ben
Damn got more screens than an office building on that boat 😂.
How much is the entry fee to an Elite Series Tourny?
Awesome
Just curious, how fast are those top tier bass boats now capable of? Look to be all but flying lol. Respect for sharing your videos.
2024 bass cat caracal can do over 80 in perfect conditions, but all of them are doing low 70s
High 60's low 70s are a standard. But trust me anything over 50 on the water looks fast and it's gonna feel just like a real car wreck hitting the water at 70 plus mph..
Awesome Video

Keep crushing em Ben! Let’s make the classic!
You bet!
I love your videos man and I just brought one of your 402 shirts
Catch'um up Ben..
Whats up bro What brand are the sunglasses ??
Ben Milliken owns waterland sunglass company.
Nice thanks been looking for some wide sunglasses ill check them out.
Good content as always by "BRED" (Black & Red) brother...
Any reason 6th sense isn’t on the jersey? Just wondering, no hate here
so you can have your own cameraman during a tournament on your boat? i thought there was a person assigned to every boat? sorry kinda new to this
3.49 for gas? It's 2.81 here in Missouri! Love your vids man, found your channel through Josh PigPatrol years ago and been enjoying watching you as a pro!
Try $5.79 a gall here in eureka California.
@@StikmanModesto that is expected in Cali
Are they allowing Cole to be on the boat with you as your cameraman? I mean you would think that bass would do that especially for guys that are promoting BASS through their own brands...
nice video! were you at the bassmaster elite in decatur? i think i saw you on saturday
Of course he was, he fishes the elites
@@jprizzle2604 i was talking about one saturday after he didn't make the cut
Milliken fishermen 👍
23:40 tell Scott Martin quit yappin and give me his daughters number already! 😎
No boys allowed go grow a pair!
I thought your mom took away your phone privileges?
Isn’t it f ed up how you can go to the retention pond as big as your backyard down there an get a bigger bag ?
Hey Ben. You still selling those swimbaits that move through the water like a hot dog? The hungover ones? I’m trying to find one so I can show my friend how terrible it is. We’re doing a challenge on who can find the worst baits
I'm pretty sure that if you choose a sixth sense bait you're going to lose in a competition of the worst out there. Lol
id like to see him come to maine and try and figure out some lakes
What happened to your camper
More bots than actual real comments on this channel. I suspect something fishy with the views as well.
Get your foil hats on folks
Last time I saw that many electronics I was in a best buy...😂
🤘🤘💀💀🤘🤘
I'm here for the fake thumbnail @15:55 love em making a 2.8 look like a 10 pound lol, takes skill, pay the editor for clicks
Fax bro 😂
Don't cry about it.. it's part of being a youtuber! . it's literally RUclips 101..
I mean if you can’t tell that’s not what it would actually look like you have other problems.
Just complimenting his editor, he does it with pretty much every video and deserves some recognition lol calm down
