Theses were some of your best videos. Bring back MFer of the day. The big tournament videos are awesome but the smaller lake shallow fishing and small tournaments were great videos. Either way can’t wait for another video. Good luck at Smith lake.
Buddy I just love watching your videos.. I don't care if you're using live scoping or bank fishing cause there's always something entertaining or at the least educational.. keep up the great work bud
Loved this content Ben. I'm OG and it reminded me of some of your content from back in the day. Best part was seeing you just have fun with no pressure. Very informative as well. Thanks!
I've been following you for 7+ years. I love the pro tour stuff and the old school stuff like this. I wouldn't be against some old school pond hopping when your schedule frees up after the season is up. Keep em coming.
......"yep, we're back in Nebraska!". Love it! Been watching you since you were beating the banks, FROM THE BANKS, with Josh. I'm not a big fan of ffs, but, you've obviously used it to enhance the knowledge that you've already acquired. That's a completely different scenario from the kids that are winning with it, with virtually NO prior fishing experience. I've heard you say, more than once, "I knew they were doing this, now I know why". THAT'S A TRUE FISHERMAN! Hats off bro! Much respect! Keep doing what you're doing. I'm cheering you on from DFW.
F the haters, livescope is a great tool even fishing shallow finding cover that is not visible. I want to see more in depth on glide baits , where when why and mods. Keep up the awesome videos brother
Not that we hate milly its good to see you do what got u where ur at now though i missed the old school stuff 100% but i happy for you as well u worked hard for it but anyone can live scope this video brought me back to where u began no hate at all just dont forget where u started thats what we miss
Always love the vids where you go out and just slay them with crankbaits, jigs, and stroker craws. Go ahead and add the Hogwalla to the bunch. Oh yeah…..and bring the Zark along for some laughs.
Make like you won’t there all ways good. Thanks for take the time to make them and share your knowledge. To me that’s what makes a grate fisherman is teaching and sharing knowledge not just for me for everybody and the younger generation for sure. Thanks Ben👍💪
Love splashing in the nostalgia videos. Swing by and hang with old friends like the guy with all the aquariums, porn stache and Zark. Do a trout catch clean and cook on a lake or River bank. Those family vacation trips were fun too, Colorado yurts, texas beaches and down in the tropics where that guy fell off the road on a four wheeler.
Ben love your videos. You've taught me alot on the swimbait deal and I've caught alot of fish from my 12 ft John boat no FFS so these videos I enjoy even more, and I catch alot on the gilliken colors also and I just bought the garage sale bag also and used the mfer. So precise that as well
Hey Ben tell us how you are really feeling about fishing that body of water in the grass and wind lol..... Your content is AWESOME as always brother!!!
I'll be honest, when Ben snagged that old square bill, I half expected him to go in after it Happy Gilmore style and come back up holding over his head.
I'm new to the channel. I like any tips you can share. I have a cheap temu 7 inch bait I'm about to try the modification you suggested in a previous video. Just for fun really. And practice. Lol
Yo calling it right now( Ben catches big fish of tournament on his birthday)! Ur due buddy keep grinding! This is the guy who caught a 50 in musky on a bitsy flip! Go Ben u da man! Rip them Slaunches a new one homie and get that check!
Our town had a truly great big bass lake. The city wasnt making much revenue. They put something in the water to kill the grass so more people would come to town to ski,tube,swim and spend more money. Plus the cops get revenue from their famous ticket writing abilities and arrests. The fishing went to shit,lake surrounded with giant mansions and seadoo and tubing boats. Also,we now have weekend fights between groups of Venezuelan from rival cities.
Ben it would be nice to see you break down a lake you haven't fished before without FFS I don't have one can't afford plus I've see one from my buddy but don't understand it. I 'm in my 70's didn't have the video game. Don't have any computer
Your still using that dang front sonar Milliken 😂 ya dang no good cheater LoL. Great video good to see you back where it all started. I like watching all your videos I don't mind the forward facing sonar no more than watching you catch trout and snatching them up like a grizzly it's all informational and I learn stuff even if I'm ever going to use it or not and it's entertaining if nonetheless.
Yeah I would like to learn some more stuff from you. I like the live scope too but I don't have it so I can't really relate. Definitely not a hater of the scope though homie
I miss this old style but i like the new style to it would be nice to see you mix it up just prove to the haters that live scope aint needed and yes mfer of the day should be brought back
There’s something about everyone’s home lake in common that’s where you spent your important early hours of your fishing career so you know know that lake
The thing about livescope videos is once you've seen one, youve seen them all, traditional fishing techniques are more unique per the fishery and present conditions.
Totally might be wrong, but I feel like maybe the recent struggles have more to do with you not having as much fun on turny days! Obviously you have to take it seriously but maybe you’re just being too serious bout things! Feel like you really let it loose today! Hopefully getting back to your roots gets you back on track!!
I think mixing it up like this a lot more entertaining than watching you stare at Live Scope. The Elite Series is no longer fun to watch the as the leaders are all scoping. However, I will continue to watch "The Next Big Thing''.
Theses were some of your best videos. Bring back MFer of the day. The big tournament videos are awesome but the smaller lake shallow fishing and small tournaments were great videos. Either way can’t wait for another video. Good luck at Smith lake.
I kinda like the new style
Such a vintage video. This is what got me following you in the first place. I love the elite stuff but this is great to come back to!
Yes!!! MORE OF THIS PLEASE!! It is so helpful to watch and learn from one of the greats of the sport. Thank you!
“Must have livescoped him. Snaggin them on purpose. Just cheating my way through life here”. Blahahahaha man that was too funny. Loved it!!!
Be careful, if you say Livescope 3 times while looking in a mirror, Randy Blaukat shows up and kills your puppy.
Buddy I just love watching your videos.. I don't care if you're using live scoping or bank fishing cause there's always something entertaining or at the least educational.. keep up the great work bud

You should've picked the Stache up 😂
I was going to say the same thing.
@@richardcameron9619 maybe after the elite series is over we'll see them together or maybe Josh does a longer Tex-ass tour
Not that we hate milly its good to see you do what got u where ur at now though i missed the old school stuff 100% but i happy for you as well u worked hard for it but anyone can live scope this video brought me back to where u began no hate at all just dont forget where u started thats what we miss

Totally dig the variety in fishing style
Make like you won’t there all ways good. Thanks for take the time to make them and share your knowledge. To me that’s what makes a grate fisherman is teaching and sharing knowledge not just for me for everybody and the younger generation for sure. Thanks Ben👍💪
You literally made me laugh out loud. Too funny. I needed that. I’ve never in my life seen a subject matter so polarizing.
One of my favorites in a minute. I'm sure you needed that, as much as I did.
As a shallow water/no electronics angler THIS is the kind of video that gets me excited to get out and get bent! Keep em coming YA BEEEEEEEEEEET!
You’re the man! I love watching your videos and you have become my favorite fisherman! I love livescope! What an awesome tool! Good luck this year!

A man of the people coming in hot with the shallow beatdown. Love the Crush 50X
Started watching 8 years ago when it was all shallow fishing! I like 👍 it
It's great seeing you fishing on a lake you started your UA-cam channel on. #402
Best hard baits in the market imo.Caught a ton of fish cranking Sixth Sense in all depths
Use the scope on your home pond and yank on the big uns! Maybe a show and go…the most helpful to me!
Ben love your videos. You've taught me alot on the swimbait deal and I've caught alot of fish from my 12 ft John boat no FFS so these videos I enjoy even more, and I catch alot on the gilliken colors also and I just bought the garage sale bag also and used the mfer. So precise that as well
Hey Ben tell us how you are really feeling about fishing that body of water in the grass and wind lol..... Your content is AWESOME as always brother!!!
Welcome back to NE, the winds, carp and catfish
Ben would be a serious problem if live scope didn't exist those old videos was wild
Your personality is funny as shit! I love watching and listening to you fish. Good luck in your Tournys this year!
There you go Ben you don't need that dam livescope great job!!!
Its all good bro... just fish and enjoy yourself man.audience that appreciate it will show up 😊
I'll be honest, when Ben snagged that old square bill, I half expected him to go in after it Happy Gilmore style and come back up holding over his head.
8:47 big’ol kitty cat or buffalo or something. Happens on my home lake and can be a pita lol
You kill it either way homie. Besides catching awesome fish, biggest thing I love about you is you're not afraid tell all of them to f off. 💪🤘🤘🤙
That grass looked kinda like milfoil. Tons of it in Guntersville Lake. Fish love it. Fishermen, not so much.
I grew up on that lake and actually helped build those jetty’s on the Iowa side
Dam good lake
I think you should colab. with ol' Stache hole!! I loved when you guys were together ❤
Yeah buddy! LFG!🎣
I'm new to the channel. I like any tips you can share. I have a cheap temu 7 inch bait I'm about to try the modification you suggested in a previous video. Just for fun really. And practice. Lol
Awesome video. Thanks Ben
OMG IM NOT SORRY I CANT STOP THIS LOVE LIKE MINE!!!
Love this style keep doing em milliken
Sko MFers. I still love my MFer rods after 4 years. Glad to hear Zark on the outro like back in the day😂.
Just videos, doesn't matter what you're doing, sitting around the campfire is fine. Grass looks like Milfoil.
Great video, catch'um up Ben..
I need to know the story behind the crusty red pliers. I've seen them on many boats over the years
I’m a co angler so I don’t have live scope. This video helped me learn ways I can fish in tournaments
My MAN!!! With the throwback outro 🌲💪🏽🌳😎. Dope video to take it back to some roots my dude! Keep’em cummin
This fishing is where i learned the most from you .Me. Ben. Dale .
Love watching you catch 50lb limits off shore. But good ol bank beating videos would do well!
I just grabbed a couple. Thanks for the links
Yo calling it right now( Ben catches big fish of tournament on his birthday)! Ur due buddy keep grinding! This is the guy who caught a 50 in musky on a bitsy flip! Go Ben u da man! Rip them Slaunches a new one homie and get that check!

randy would be proud of this one
Lol.
I remember videos on this lake in the old Stratos! Back when max was a kid!
Yes lets see some OC (Old School) fishing....
I like it when you show how to use the live scope..
I cant afford live scope but watching you I have learned a few things !
That damn Zark clip still gets me 😂
i bounce my spinner bait off things too especially lillys drives the bass crazy.
Your still using that dang front sonar Milliken 😂 ya dang no good cheater LoL. Great video good to see you back where it all started.

I luv me some crankin’ fish off rip-rap❤️🔥🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Big 10-4 on the old school fishing videos
What baitcasters do you recommend. Is the curado mgl 150 good and if so should I get hg or xg
More of this please!
Yeah I would like to learn some more stuff from you. I like the live scope too but I don't have it so I can't really relate. Definitely not a hater of the scope though homie
Love watching you fish shallow dude, what rod are you throw the squarebill on?
loved this one ben
Trying to get better with livescope, PLEASE continue those videos! #howyoudoin
Hope you have a few creston area lake vids in the chamber
I miss this old style but i like the new style to it would be nice to see you mix it up just prove to the haters that live scope aint needed and yes mfer of the day should be brought back
There’s something about everyone’s home lake in common that’s where you spent your important early hours of your fishing career so you know know that lake
Love your videos
3:30 😂😂😂
I love livescope but I'm a broke mf....so these videos are fire lol. Good to have you back! GBR!!
More videos with no electronics to keep your skills up man, you bet🤙
Lets GOOOOOOOO zark with the prof song!!!
I really do not care how you catch them mate, just like to follow you in Elites.
Cole is way behind on the edits just quietly.
No Josh Stache with ya while in the Big O?????
The thing about livescope videos is once you've seen one, youve seen them all, traditional fishing techniques are more unique per the fishery and present conditions.
What lake is that?
Rip some!! Yup let's see more vids like this
Totally might be wrong, but I feel like maybe the recent struggles have more to do with you not having as much fun on turny days! Obviously you have to take it seriously but maybe you’re just being too serious bout things! Feel like you really let it loose today! Hopefully getting back to your roots gets you back on track!!

If that color available for purchase?
Brother build some confidence we started hot then fell off we gotta get hot again!!!!!!! 402nation
Don't say you're not using it and have it on. Come on now. You're using live scope in this video
I guess I need to change baits up I’ve been skunked at that lake this year
Miss that outro!!
U gonna link up with Josh while ur there
Happy birthday the 28th 🎉😊
You should actually do a challenge where you fish the best lakes with ur livescope turned off and try to catch 25 pounds
All your videos are fine with Me.
I dont like one or the other more. A good mix of scoping and shallow water fishin is the recipe for me!
MFer of the day bring it back
heck yeah
Send over the carp to Texas so I I can use it for gar bait!
It’s more action and easier to watch this style of video.
Sooo refreshing
