Nice shirt !! Milman, I have to say this. I’m a Texan, and been taking all your advice, iv been killing it on the big swim baits. The last 2 weeks I have 5 fish over 8lbs !! Sooooo happy thank you for all the confidence.
Love when you come out with a non derby video. I still watch the tournaments but it’s a lot more fun to watch you in your element joking around catching giants. So much more relatable. Still happy for you grinding out the tournaments but I would love to see a good old Cole and Ben antics vidja here soon. Keep up the good work man
I got real excited for a second, because I thought you were about to show us a new weedles hair jig, but it was a great looking hair jig, uhm why can't it be weedles like a rubber jig? FishOn.....jimi
Ben, actually tied on a Carolina rig for the first time in like 5 years. Put a hogwalla on there, and caught a few fish over 4lbs in an hour. Guess I need to try not to forget that technique!
A mix of Hair, Feather. and Skirt make incredible smallmouth jigs. I have one left with a bad hook in a 1/4oz and it was the best jig I've ever used on smallies. I wish I knew who made it but I don't and its like 25 years old and I have it saved incase anyone figures to manufacture it again. There's a market for it at least for me If 6th Sense was to make it.
This morning green valley the 🐸 bite was strong. Poor Carter lake is 3 to 4 feet down rite now 😢 can barely get a boat in there. Miss the local vids with you back in nebraska. Always helped knowing what lakes were 🔥
I’m a new sub Milliken glad to be apart of the MFers. Actually the first video I saw was your hair jig video and I watched the whole thing a couple weeks ago and that’s when I knew to sub. I saw the thumbnail for this video and it had the hair jig and it’s crazy how 6th sense is making them and I might need to cop a couple when they release ;). Possibly more hair jig videos to come too? Loved the video and good luck in the bass master opens!! Keep it up!!! 💪
Aaron Marten's had a very successful career on drop shot. He's probably the best ever when it comes to drop shot. Changed the game when it comes to that technique
Alright man, at first I wasn’t sure about you but after this one im now an MFer! (if I make the cut) anyways you had me at thermocline big guy! Tight lines🎣
Please provide the carpet cover that’s own your boat. I know you briefly talked about it long ago and I posted a question on where I can find it. Thanks for all the content! Been an Mf’er for a long time. Keep killing it!
It has been Hotter than Satan's Taint! But I've seen you catch fish from 2° to damn 102°! Always good shit and looking forward to seeing you up on the 1st place podium Rippin Lips 🎣💥👊🏻.
Mr. Milliken, I'm sorry if this the wrong place to ask this question but, what would be your top 5 swim / glide baits for ozarks lakes? I'm new to the trend and would love to hear your take on what you would use if you could only choose say 5 for year round fishing. Thanks for any response.
Hey Ben, great video! Thanks for the tips. I’m currently looking for a versatile cranking rod. Been watching and rewatching your videos trying to narrow it down. What is your recommendation for a shallow to medium crank rod with good versatility? Reel too if you see this. Either way, thanks! 🔥
I love watching all your stuff from tips to educational its all great. But my anxious mind wont let me watch your tournaments cuz i want you to get that W. But keep doing your thing boss.
Do you feel that you rig for several different scenarios and not have to use some of your rig-ups?... curious about the idea of rigging a rod and not finding "heavy brush or rock piles perse" Do you throw it anyway? ( Jus'cause it's rigged)
Hey man love the channel! Watch all your videos. You know any good bank fishing spots near you ? I'm always in that area. My go to spot right now is in the woodlands but I'd like to find some new spots
Ok so because you have told us and have used it so many times I had to give in and use the drop shot 😅 well it happened I had to throw the drop shot and it worked I caught 2 bass in 8 min after fishing all day having hella follows and no real bites, I caught those 2 at 7 pm and I got there at 7am. So Big Thank You for the reminder on the drop shot it saved me from skunking yesterday
Great summer breakdown of lure choices. I just ordered the new released giant 6th sense flutter spoons released this week. Where do those fit in this lineup?
Welp, I'm not the guy in the video 😂 nor am I a frog expert. However one thing I like to do is cut skinny one to two inch strips of pool noodles and stuff them into my frogs. I don't pack them full, but I put enough to float the frog no matter how much water gets in. It makes fishing them way more enjoyable. As for the hooks it just depends on the frog and where I want to throw it.
Will use drop shot next time tho. I've fished my hole life. Don't hunt. Just use flukes and few other things for bass. Never got into it as much as jig fishing for white perch or big cats growing up. I'm 42 and learning all the ins and outs and tricks and just takn in all I can. I don't care for numbers or really any at all but 10+what I'm learing 85% of my time fishing. I missed a 12+ maybe 3 yrs ago or lil less and I ain't stopped. Got an 8'6" my pb but learing big fish from you only I feel my whale comn soon. From Eagle Lake Texas but in ne Louisiana. Grew cat fishing on the Colorado river. Keep it up make more haters lol
