[@MLF5official]

You're welcome. Have a nice day.

[@BuyToppsGradeHGA]

Thanks for posting! I will watch this one many times :)

[@ncbassin7032]

Look forward to seeing me in this event in the future

[@davidcybuck221]

All of these guys are sunburned in the videos. Please, please, please, take more measures to avoid skin cancer. That wasn't my only take away from an amazing video, tournament, story, etc....but the only one that drove me to comment.

[@thatchewy]

these videos are awesome this was a sick tournament it would've been cool to see wheeler win on wheeler haha

[@MLF5official]

Would certainly have made a nice headline.

[@gscompton1965]

and he was in a Ranger .....now that would have been a special moment !

[@brandonjohns4964]

It was an awesome tournament to witness😍😍

[@timbo6082]

John "You know" Cox takes the Forrest Wood Cup sight fishing in an ALUMINUM boat. Thats skill!

[@jesse-45cal-WCM]

@Scott Martin I am really disappointed to see you not make the final day. I was hopping you would make it. Fish 🐟 n bro.

[@CentralCoastBass]

Can't wait to fish the costa series here in the west this year, love the FLW - Scott.

[@MLF5official]

We look forward to having you!

[@BryanTheHunter]

I think it's funny that there is a big deal made at the beginning of the video about ranger boats and John won out of a crestliner

[@UKFanatic97]

I think that's why they put it there. It's the irony of it I think.

[@Hbnel5on]

its because its the forrest wood cup. forrest l wood makes ranger bass boats. they weren't showcasing rangers, just the person

[@UKFanatic97]

+Hunter Nelson You gotta look past that.

[@Hbnel5on]

what? that doesnt male sense. they just showcased his accomplishments as one of the owners of the premiere boat brands

[@UKFanatic97]

+Hunter Nelson Nvm man.

[@flipajigtv8608]

I was at the cup. I'm also from Arkansas. But at the cup the played the video about forest at the beginning

[@ktown_bassin5396]

My man Jacob wheeler is awesome wish he would have took the win and be the first angler to have 2 forest wood cup wins

[@WhitchurchFishing1]

i have caught some monster bass on this lake its a great place to fish

[@tylerfish6206]

Why is it a life changer it’s just another event it’s not like it’s a 3 event elimination, it’s just another event and please explain brush piles

[@kenschreiner9466]

21:21 Railroad Bridge

[@billparsons8251]

16lbs to take the lead on day one? My god should have came up to ontario! would have taken at over 20lb to lead on many of our lakes!

[@soaredwood162]

The Tin Man!

[@kenschreiner9466]

30:12 Vietnam Veterans Bridge
On there by mistake

[@bassinout]

Where do you get your music from

[@swalker9482]

Tin boat baby

[@reedhu5724]

would you give these videos subtitles!!

[@codicollins8133]

I love these videos, but I would like some more information on the baits and techniques they're using. At one point it said a guy was using "a white soft plastic." Could that possibly be any more vague? Lol

[@MLF5official]

This might help. www.flwfishing.com/tips/2016-08-08-top-10-baits-from-the-2016-cup

[@benjaminwarner3721]

looks like a 3-4" white fluke, rigged weightless.

[@andrewgarrett5576]

Why did the cup winnings go from 500,000 to 300,000??

[@mylesculley689]

Is the lake Norman tournament going to air?

[@MLF5official]

No sir. The Invitationals aren't on TV.

[@motorcycleislife8296]

Can someone explain why someone like Kevin VanDam doesn't fish the FLW? Wouldn't FLW pay more than Bassmaster?

[@nicholassanderson3831]

Collin H Likely for sponsorship reasons, from what I've heard thats why a lot of FLW pros are going to the Elites. Also, the sponsorship models on the two different circuits is very different, with BASS allowing pros more freedom to make their own sponsorship identity, whereas FLW controls much more. Until recently, any pros that make the final day HAD to fish out of Rangers.

[@nicholassanderson3831]

Collin H Elites also get more coverage. For example, pretty much anyone who only casually pays attention to pro bass fishing could name far more BASS pros than FLW. Although FLW is definitely the circuit to make more money off of tournaments, for sponsor money its often BASS. Neither is inherently better than the other and I enjoy both, but there are reasons pros fish the circuits they do.

[@neshafarr5575]

Where is the video game for PS4 XBOX1??/??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@redacted4351]

Song at 0:03 please?

[@watertothepeople]

price money went down from 500'000 to 300'000 ?!

[@MLF5official]

Yep.

[@JSBassMasters]

Many pros are going to BASS now

[@nathand226]

FLWFishing why did it go down?

[@pdoggtheog]

+FLWFishing we call that the Johnny mo effect 😅

[@MLF5official]

Not because of any one thing. This year pros fished without co-anglers and out of their own boats all four days, that's an example of some of the factors.

[@fishing4lite517]

Any body need a co angler?

[@nolanguetterman4625]

what does FLW mean

[@reedhu5724]

Fishing League Worldwide

[@MLF5official]

FLW stands for Forrest L. Wood, the namesake of the company and founder of Ranger Boats. Fishing League Worldwide is our tagline.

[@tylerfish6206]
