People don't understand how good these guys are
I do. I’ve been outclassed by several anglers in the past and thought “goddamn...there are so many levels above me...”
And those guys were amateurs...multiply that by 20 and you’re starting to get there...
He has a bass
Blake Unrein I do lol
Yes they are I could hold my own though it makes it easier having sponsors to be able to have the best gear possible u give me the same boats rod reels I'd give em a runive won many tournaments not like theses but I've fished the Same lakes they fished anddne very wrll
@@j-brock7298 could you do it with the pressure on, cameras in your face and make it look as easy and flawless like the pros do?
I'm a KVD fan, not only because of his abilities but the way he carries himself. He stays calm, and does the job in hammer fashion.
That's a great observation and huge reason why I like him.
KVD GOAT
Yes
Kevin VanDam is still to this day the GREATEST BASS ANGLER OF ALL TIME! Just watched him rack up another top 15 in the MLF Redcrest Championship. He never slows down. I remember watching this tournament and wanting to go down to Toledo Bend to try and catch fish the way he did in this tournament. I bought my first big cranking stick right after this tournament as well. Never gets old
Ya
Only argument is for Rick Clunn, because he did it with less technology, but if KVD gets a fith Classic win that's it.
I love the Bassmaster Elites! But you guys gotta get these shows out on time and in order on UA-cam!! FLW is kicking your butts in this!
Our shows go on our site first. You can find them here: video.bassmaster.com/detail/videos/elite-series-tv-shows/
3:20 no emotion regarding the hook in his hand....just pure joy for the fish he just landed!😂 GOAT 🐐
My jaw was on the floor , fuckin badass 🙌🏿
I can’t say for him but I recently got a large treble hook stuck through the web of my hand and I couldn’t feel it unless I tried to move it.
@@jackpickle5486 I’ve had one in each of my thumbs. First one was right through the knuckle. I had to push it through, snip the barb, and pull it back out. It honestly didn’t hurt until I started pulling it back out then it burned really weirdly and hurt like hell 😅
First time watching kvd... What a legend.. watching from Australia 🇦🇺
Kevin VanDam is the king of bass fishing. He is just unstoppable on the waters
Even with a hook buried in his hand he still smiles. Been there done that but with a two lb bowfin on that wasn't happy either , not a bass.
That was a bad ass bite on the popper!!! Man this is good stuff right here. I miss this so much with the way today’s tournament is fished!!
What a fun tournament. Toledo Bend is a fantastic lake for sure! Cool to see the mix of deep and shallow water fishing taking place in this event, and cool to see the GOAT come out with the win! Nobody better than KVD 🐐
Imagine how nervous the guy pulling the hook out of KVDS hand was😂😂😂
KVD is my favorite angler of all time hands down. He is a beast largemouth or smallmouth it doesn't matter, he catches the Biggs!!!
i love it when Kevin Vandam is fishing i learn alot and his my role model
i know from the start that Kevin VanDam would win
At 22:25 Chris Lane hooked a bass in the same exact spot I hooked my PB (7lbs6oz).
Grew up on this lake and my camphouse is right around the corner from where he was fishing. Incredible spot. Incredible to see my honey hole on the bassmasters
Kevin... you're the man! I appreciate and respect your humbleness....but you are the man!!! Congrats....if I could get away from my 3 kids and work I'd love to spend a day on the water with you!! Keep killinem' man.
love these videos!!
It's crazy how different this lake looks compared to how it did when I was growing up there in the 70s. The place was basically a flooded forest. We lived right down the road from Pendleton Harbor on the Texas side, and when you crossed that long bridge there were trees everywhere. You had to run in a boat to the Louisiana side to get north of that area. Crazy.
Thanks so much Bassmaster for posting this. Congrads KVD for an awesome victory. Not just Kevin obviously , but he's probably taking the worst of the spectator boats . No way in the world I would do that to someone. Geez if you've got the money to follow someone around in your big bass boat yourself, you would think you would be courteous and smart enough to stay TOTALLY out of there way. Watch the weigh ins, watch it on TV, watch it on YT, but come on put yourself in that situation and realize that following these pros around the lake and getting in there way is just wrong.
arciefan just because they are "professional" doesnt mean they own the lake.
I agree with ar these guys go through a lot to make this happen and too much is at state including millions of dollars,and endorsements also like KVD said"you dont come across these opportunities everyday" even the best in the world had that much to admit,the sport is very beneficial to the economy in our country as well as other countries for that matter and also when im fishing though im no pro or tournament angler i wouldn't get in anybody's way it's just rude and nobody should ever have to tell you that!
That's true they don't own the lake, but everyone with half a brain knows that you don't go near someone when they are on a spot fishing. Assholes do that When they are jealous because someone is catching fish right in front of them and they can't catch shit.
Paul Childress thats 100% right!!!!!! I got buddies that do that to me!!!!!
Great stuff. Love the Bassmaster. 2019, new faces will make for a better tour!
Ive watched this many times and when chris lane says "It's a moose" kills me 😂
Waooo Kevin you are amazing God bless you
Damnnn... KVD is a stone cold animal, he feels nothing but Victory. "you're gonna freaking jack it, don't tell me just do it, just like that..." Damn
I always like to say that Kevin VanDam is practically unstoppable. He almost controls the water in tournaments
I don't understand how KVD is consistently so much better than everyone else. What a beast!
I went to Okeechobee weigh in last month they said it would be on TV in two weeks still haven't seen it.I love the bass live, its only 4 hours a day each tournament but its a great way to see how the guys fish and talk. its funny a lot of the time they trash talk each other, fart ect. u get to see the real anglers.
It's crazy how most people who are not in the fishing community have no clue who is Kevin van dam, but to some of us he's the micheal of bass fishing.
The Mille acs tournament was awesome
They need to just ban spectators following the anglers, and use drones to cover the footage where spectators can watch back at the pavilion on big screens. I know they can't stop people from fishing public water, but just keep them from fishing right on top of the guys like that. It will increase their sales, keep the anglers more focused, and people wont fish the hell out of the spots.
ReelBigFish you saw how Kevin said “can y’all back up please”. There is so many people around him like give the guy some space bruh

Public Water dumb ass
16:45 is my favorite clip in all of bass fishing. Now everytime I catch a fish I yell "yeuh"
Best Top Water EVER ZEL ROLAND. Zara spoil. I pray they make them again or I can find a few. Love it.
KVD is a freaking animal no stopping him he is the one
He caught that big bass on a. 10xD crank
he stayed so calm on that first giant... unbelievable
"It's a biggin'! Giant!" Scott Martin's exact line when he hooks up. KVD must have been a big inflluence!
Me everytime "There's a fish" hook set. My friends laughed with me Jan 1st we slayed 25 bass in super cold, stained water.
The best of the best of all time. Not Human but a Fishing Android. KVD
Never heard someone call a 5 pounder a moose lol😂
Pizzzle _ you’ve never fished tournament!!
Shit here in northern Illinois you catch a 5 pounder we'll throw a parade
Need to watch some of these youtubers nowadays then
5lb bass = how ever much$$$$ yeah boya fat pay check for a 5lb bass hello moose
Shit I've caught two five pounders in 6 years 2 in 6 for Colorado
kvd needs to have a statue made on him
Jayson Eslira can’t have statues of white guys erected anymore.
White people who aren't traitor confederates are just fine
Jayson Eslira true
@@inshoremaniyak2938 bs
I agree
When the bite is good you can use anything but when the bite is dead, use frogs or worms. No weights on the worm. This means you need to use a ZEBCO spin cast reel. Yes I said it. You can cast a weightless worm a mile with one of those reels. The drag is smooth and you will have no trouble landing a large fish. I caught big pike on those reels 30 yrs ago when they were junk. Now they are much improved and very smooth. The drag is very nice and adjustable. No shame for being resourceful!
Rick clunn. can't say no more!!!!! 'BEAST MODE'
How can anyone prefer MLF over this? Sad a lot of these guys are gone
crazy to think this was only 5 years ago
Looks at 8pound bass *smiles* looks at other hand with hook *frowns*
Love living in jasper Texas because I’m near lake Sam Rayburn and Toledo bend
Love to meet you Kevin. Gastonia,NC. I have some spots to show you. 😎
there are many great fishermen out there some famous;others known only to their friends.but KVD is the greatest I have ever seen
KVD a beast. Still The Best. GOAT
Fact!
Lucky made it down to LA. For the Bass Tourny.
"right there's a moose" never gets old lol
That's my boy Kvd!!!
I am same age as VD. And I am a fan.
It drives me crazy these guys come down south and school us on catching Bass. I mean he’s from Michigan!!!!
I would have told him that 10XD is mine!!! Lol. I really like KVD.
kvd is the best. you guys have to watch the bracket. he was soooooo good. lots of spots saved, have plan a to plan z. simply amazing.
GZ Huang knkjmmmmmmmonmmmmnn
Ommmomim
Nbn io
Job opportunity j j jjo
Hell, I remember when KVD was a rising star on the Bassmaster's series. Am I really that old?
Ish is awesome!
The 🐐
I’ve never heard someone say that’s an 8 pounder that calm
I wonder why they edited out the part where vandam told the guy thank you for helping w/the hook.
Ish Monroe is my favorite fisherman
what an honor to take a hook out of kvds hand
17:47 was me and my buddy! For the record we never fished his stuff!! You can't call yourself a fan and do something like that in the middle of competition. I don't see how anyone thinks that's right!
Dustin Edmiston sure it was. keep reproducing that Sudafed and telling yourself these crazy stories
Lol! wrll it is bud not sure what the sudafed reference means. I guess I could post a pic of my huk shirt sighted by Kvd saying 2016 Toledo bend champ!! Amongst several other pros. I also went to bass fest this year. Crazy I know!!
*well
Don't think it will let me post pics. But I would be more than happy to email you a pic from the event!
Dustin Edmiston I just need the waypoint lol...
I wish KVD would go back to the Elites. I miss watching him kick everyone's tail.
imagine
what 1rod1reel reaction would be if he caught that fish hahaha
😂
Lmfao best comment
What bout my boy flair
GET IN THE BOOOAAAAATTT!!!!!!!!
The cringe..... I hate those fishweman....
Kwvin vsn dsmme a betttwr watch
KVD for real giving tips while having someone remove a hook from his hand… like.. that man is just unreal.
Modern fishing.
KVD is the only guy who can guess a weight and no one questions him.
all i buy is strikeking lures spinnerbaits and shallow crank is my fav i buy 2 lures every week thanks again
Wesley Adams you must spend a lot changing those hooks. Lol out the package they aren't the best
Lol the announcer said the patriots said the back up QB was said to need to be the starter over tom Brady , crazy how things change he is now traded and having a great year
Sick
Kevin van damm is awesome or however you spell his name
Ole Kobe VanDamn!!!
Omg I salute you KVD OCH
RIP Kobe
God damn I feel bad for those fish that Ish Monroe catches. That Mo Fo sets the hook like no other!!! Love Ish but KVD is the best. KZOO represent.
KVD really gets me jacket up
Kevin I s my favs👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
I live in logansport lousisana on the Sabine River about hour away from there
id love to see a match play tourney. same lure same water maybe a 4 hr match play. win and advance. well maybe same lures is going too far ,but it would be fun to watch
I`m a michigan boy too. We know how to catch some slabs!
Power bro Fish-on
This is where quarantine has brought me
Collin Combs Well i hope you learned that KVD is the GOAT of bass fishing, my friend!
Kvd is awesome
I wonder how many bass were filled with lead weights
Question...and this may be a dumb one...do the fish that are caught in these tournaments live? Are they released back into the water, alive?
We host catch-and-release tournaments. The fish are kept in livewells and in tanks until after they are weighed, and then we release them back in to the lake. I don't have stats on hand for all of our tournaments this year, but at one of the hottest events of the season 96% of the bass caught during the four day tournament were released alive and well. - Sara
Awesome! Thank you for the response! I really enjoyed the video. KVD is the man!
I land fish a lot in Fla. No livewell... But I got my phone and camera... so I get my quick weigh in, then a picture, then right back into the water to bet bigger and make more babies. I've was a B.A.S.S. member since Ray Scott launched it..and even way back then, B.A.S.S. was about catch and release. :) And my how you have grown. Good Stuff.
With the technology their putting into the livewells like flowing water, ph and oxygen levels inside water, ect most fish survive. I think it the fish that are gut hooked, gill hooked, the hooks down their throat and people use pliers further injuring the fish, and just improper hookset is what leads to the fish dying.
Well I hope you don't catch any more 4-9 pounders then!
Kevin will win another classic before he is done to make it 5 i would have to say Jordan Lee is going to take over here soon
I’ll bet if you asked Kevin to trade that 8 pounder for never having gotten hooked, he would’ve looked at you like you were nuts haha
Did anyone else see the latch close by itself at 8:08?? was that the ghosties or do nitros have that in the latches.
would this be pre-spawn or post-spawn for these Louisiana fish?
Did God help Hank Cherry catch a fish at 13:08 ? Would that be fair? Would it be legal under tournament rules?
good
21 lb bag on the final day for his 21st victory? Damn
Is KVD throwing a Plopper at around 24 minutes?
Y'all let me know where to go fishing at
When is the KVD real blood/meat hook going on the market?
37:30 Big Bass Ten pounder.
KVD is good at everything.
big bass you got there from Chase Watson
KVD the best bass angler in the world
These guys were saying the word biggun before most of us even knew what a bass was 😂
Kvd is the Tom Brady of fishing
I would have gave that guy that bait after helping gme get the hook out. At the very least say thank u lol
I on team kvd because I have I can't tell you how many reels and crank baits I have from kvd
The Michael Jordan ..... of bass fishing 🎣 .....The goat 🐐
KVD is a monster
