It's been an awesome 4 years watching you grow....from stream fishing with salmon eggs to FREAKING BASS MASTER ELITE SERIES. you are a PRO congratulations.
I really enjoyed the whole video partly because it wasn't compressed into a shorter hot and heavy with mostly the catching . The livescope and narration was very good and informative . It was worth listening to Ben's sniffling throughout .
Jesus man. Your having the year of your life Bass Fishing brother. What an incredible string of past months it seems. Makes me feel like I’m doing it all wrong lol. Not sure how you don’t have sponsor begging you to use there products!!??
It was good to see your struggle. It was also great to see your techniques and changing it up frequently to how the fish were responding. Great insightful video
One of my favorites you’ve made! Love learning the whole process, as I have never owned a real boat and haven’t the faintest idea of what you’ve been talking about.. awesome content!
I have to thank you for the knowledge. Just what I watched you catch this year has helped me tremendously. You hear all these fisherman catching these huge bass. All thanks to you showing us how. So I have to personally thank you.
Well this is an epic video Ben and Cole the pair of you braving the cold and the wind 😳 it just goes to show that Pantie opticals while it is a great aid it is not promised fish caught
Well I hung in there for 1 hr 15 minutes. I fish old school finesse, you had me when I watched you 1 st elite tournament, but glad I watched part of this one , you saved me a lot of money and agony THX! I’m 69 and caught my 1st bass at 15 yrs old on a Zebco 33 and love figuring those bass out every time, I’ll stick to that, you learned me a lot. Hey when there not biting try to go back to old school, you might catch one! LOL Maybe you can make an old school video for us old guys who like to catch them the fun way and don’t fall asleep! Keep the faith brother! 👍🥸🙏
Loved the long video! Can you do a LS setup video? I swear I can’t see a 6 inch swim bait as good as yours shows a 3, also love watching Cole catch some fish, every time he hooks up it reminds me of my wife and kids they just act so excited it’s enjoyable
Hey Ben, you are an excellent fisherman. Today I again watched your MERCER SHOW. In the interview you and Mercer commented that it was very important that gaining additional watchers on TV was very important and I agree 100%. I’m 76 yrs old and have fished tournaments all my life with artificial lures. My opinion is Live Scope is a great backward step in promoting audiences. Looking at your screen or you basically dropping a lure on a fish or a group of fish is NOT VERY ENTERTAINING in comparison to sidescan, working the bank, working a drop off, or just chunking at downed tree, or a stump, or a clump of rocks. Hey bud you are great for fishing and attract people with your personality, including me. I chunk and carry most every 6th Sence lures and clothing and they are great products. Again my opinion; I think Forward Facing Fishing should be allowed anytime OTHER THAN TOURNAMENTS. Use it to learn fish reactions, terrain/bottom. Watching Forward Facing Fishing videos is much less entertaining. This was noticeably to me, but when the neighborhood kids that hit golf balls into the net in my backyard came onto my back patio to watch RU-vid videos and eat lunch and warmup with their Dads, I heard their Dad’s negative comments and watched their boys quickly loose interest in watch the FFVing ( I’m sure SP check is going to have a field day with this), these are all fishermen including the boys. Milliken I know where you are coming from , I also like the state of the art everything on my boat just as you do. Your new boat is awesome. Watching you stare at a TV SCREEN looses a great deal of excitement. I love your work ethic, personality, dedication. I really with you all the luck in the Elites; WIN ALL 9 dude.
Fisherman12 I just moved to Iva from Florida and have been fishing Hartwell every weekend for the past 3 months from the bank. I cannot figure out this fishery for the life of me. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Definitely love the livescope pip. It’s actually a great learning tool for me since I just put it on my boat. Would definitely like to see more of what your seeing on livescope.
WOW! That was kewl... Thanks for showing how you actually find the Bait Fish first while Running the Motor and then Trolling around with the Panoptix to locate the fish... Then, Like normal, even though YOU know they are there, you still have to get them to bite... I was actually a little surprised how often you switched baits until you found the pattern... Great Content and Fishing Vid... Kudos Brother..
You are so dialed in on this live scoop man I think you are leaving a lot of money out there to be made on these tournments..... I do believe you could do very well on the opens and make it to the elite's.
What a great video love it the length was not an issue for me. Also the only change I would make would be why you choose certain baits when your seeing the behavior of the fish
Awesome video guys love watching it fun to see the ups and downs as well in these videos like the regular guys makes you humble keep up the amazing work!! 💪💯💯 Mfer Nation!!
Top notch Piggy Donk extended cut Coleslaw should do a video of all this epicness he has been involved in. From his point of view. Legendary stuff would be a hell of a video. keep RIPNLIPZ
Awesome Video M'Fer!!! Thing is, I'm a bankfisher. Have to. No boat. Dad taught me to fish soon as I could walk n diapers. Love it. Been in His boats. But anyway, I remember depth finders and knowing how deep you are and seeing fish lots n lots of years ago. I Love Bass Fishing. Ta Death. Just Fishing. I never even knew this kinda technology existed. I subscribed to your channel because I just feel like I'm there. To see your bait fall and see fish react to different baits in a predatory mode is just Mind Blowing. I appreciate the free Priceless Video. Please make a longer one. I could sit and watch any length of video you record. It fills my mind with new ideas of techniques I can apply in general. Just wanted to Thank You for sharing. Solid 💯

I'm a big fan of your fishing, congratulations your fishing equipment is fantastic, you are an excellent and very successful fisherman!👍🥰🔝🎣
So How are u taping the pan optics from the dash or from front of boat, also what is that 1 beam that's bright and opposite of the beams from the trolling motor,just trying to understand the pan optics
Ya know, videos like this make me doubt the old saying "a 5 pound smallmouth fights as hard as a 10 pound largemouth". Those big Flo strain bass are very strong.
Lol!!!! 🤣🤣 Little late to announce parental advisory 😆😆 I think your 7th sentence of the video is where the rated E for everyone was compromised. It turned M17 real quick lol!! 🤷♂️🤷♂️ And I didn't realize the length of the video till the 1:57.22 mark lol
God I wish I could afford one of these forward facing sonars it’s just so cool being able to pick the fish out being able to select the right size bait ball you want to fish around and then pick out which fish you’re trying to catch I’m out here just throwing blind marking ledges and grass lines with markers! It’s such an advantage to have that especially on slow days even if you’re not catching fish you can at least see what’s around and how they’re reacting to ur bait is huge
Man this has just about ruined bass fishing. I must say it’s an incredible technology though. I am about to go against my ethics and buy this setup it’s gotta feel like cheating! Lol
Brother I've never had no sonar or none of that stuff. And I have done fairly well for myself throughout my years doing what you're doing exactly marking the points to drop offs the areas that you can see on the maps. Depth charts all that good stuff where you can see the drop offs and the ledges and the points that's how I've always fished I can't afford it either
I have all the electronics trust me there great but there’s also a lot of times you spend so much time looking at the electronics you miss other things and sometimes when casual fishing it’s like overkill you don’t even need it I find myself not even using it in tournaments I catch more fish traditional ways
I'm really thinking about getting live scope but I'm afraid I'll be ruining the complete fishing experience for myself. I'd say once you go live scope you will not want to go back.
One of my favorite vids of all time. Never seen anyone actually show what forward sonar looks like while trolling around. Extremely educational. And really awesome to see how you approach things and what a day of filming actually looks like for just 15-30 of content. Thanks you 2 for all ya do for our entertainment. 👊
