Day 1 and 2 of the bassmaster open here on the James river a couple weeks ago. Had a great time, learned a ton and caught some fish! Do you guys think I should make a run at fishing these bigger events as a boater in the future? Let me know down below.

Everyone should aim to be like Steve that man fishing bassmaster classic like it's just another fishing with his buddy. The other guy definitely was putting himself in a position to catch fish and not you but Steve was all about sharing, offering to help with every fish , super cool dude

@georgedavis6583 3 года назад

People used to give me crap for finishing near bottom àt some Superbike races. I just asked them where did they finish? You fished in a bassmaster event. That's pretty cool!!!

First day was hard one to watch, appreciated the honesty.

Im not good enough to be fishing tournaments but I like watching the tournament videos. Good job you caught a limit in a bassmaster open thats pretty awesome.

@vabassfishing6739 3 года назад

Steve really is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. You got a great draw getting to fish with him.

@SBFishing 3 года назад

I haven't stopped talking about fishing with Steve since I stepped off his boat. Truly a class act, one of the nicest guys I've met and honestly just had an awesome day fishing with him.

@jordonpratt2604 3 года назад

Looks like you got backboated on day 1, good job coming back on the second day

@jacksongould4263 3 года назад

Despite not catching the fish you wanted I appreciate you bringing us along for the ride and keeping it real. I feel like you’re one of the few bass guys on YT that doesn’t just pump out clickbait videos or try to make a bad day on the water seem good or anything. The honesty is refreshing and determination inspiring, go get them next time!

@wolfsbloodny 3 года назад

Awesome video. Love seeing the process even if it didn’t go to plan. You did it, and saw it through till the end, which is the first major step. I hope you keep doing these, love the content.

You're fishing in the big leagues now. You've come a long way from when I started watching you do most of your fishing from shore. Keep going.

Came back to watch some river fishing videos, man this whole video was great. Steve “boater 2” was great and you were working the back of the boat like a pro. That boat looks huge on GoPro too 😂

@brianhershberger4429 3 года назад

really encouraged to watch you fish this tournament. i think you did awesome considering it was you first foray into tournament bass fishing. really fun to hear the banter between you and the primary anglers.. please keep fishing these tournaments, i believe you could have a really good chance at advancing if you weren't back boated by your partners and it seems like you didn't have that problem. as i said they both seemed to be stand up guys. keep fishing my friend.

You were in the race and that in itself was a Learning experience. Now is the time to get on . Get back to doing what you did a couple of years ago and have fun. When you have fun we have fun . Get your old buddy from the 50 state trip and rejoin him as you two were a fantastic team . You don’t need Pro Bass tournaments. Just be yourself .

You can learn a lot fishing as a non boater upping your game big time quickly. At the same time meeting great people making new friends.. Some people are dam good at fishing tournaments and than some are just good at fishing. To me the two are different.

@alvinator5203 3 года назад

As someone who co anglers a lot, I felt the pain of trying to stay cool, collective and supportive (referring to day 1). As a second line in the water, you only think of how not to get in the way, catch biggins and contribute what you can. It goes a long way when your captain considers your view and puts you on or at least gives you the chance to. As a captain, I know the pain all too well so I’m always making sure we have even grounds covering water.

Not NRS, but Gill! Huge fan, they’re really comfortable, super water proof and lightweight. They are 100% nylon so they don’t get way too hot to wear when you’re fishing through late spring/summer rain but have enough room to layer up underneath when it’s cold. Check them out! www.gillfishing.com/tournament-pro-3l-bib/

Run up to the chickahominy that's the key to win any tournament on the James hard to do when you're a coangler though. Not even worth being in the opens as a co angler especially a dude that over the top emotional 😂
