Marsh bass by the MILLIONS! (roughly)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лип 2020
- You might think a grown man in a fishing competition with two very young adults might take his foot off the gas, maybe coast around the corners - you know, pull a punch or two to let the youngsters stay in the game and feel like they have a chance.
But those thoughts have never crossed my mind in any fishing competition with my son, Joel, and his longtime buddy, Connor McNeil. These young men are excellent anglers, so there’s no reason to give less than 100 percent. Besides that, they’re both brutal and relentless. When they beat me on the boat, I hear about it for months.
So I REALLY didn’t want to lose last week when we set out on our most recent fishing competition. The rules of this one were among my favorite of any one-boat contest we’ve ever had. Each angler could weigh in one redfish, one bass and one other, and his cumulative total would determine his standing. But there was a caveat. A HUGE one.
The angler had to proclaim whether he’d weigh the fish as soon as he caught it, and once he weighed a fish, he couldn’t enter another in that category. It made for some difficult, spur-of-the-moment decisions on the boat that would determine who would get to be lazy the rest of the day.
The second-place finisher would get to pick whether he wanted to clean the fish or the boat, while the loser had to accomplish the leftover chore. The winner, however, could spend the time comfortably seated in a chair, surfing the internet and visiting social-media sites.
But more importantly, he’d earn bragging rights.
I really wanted that to be me. To find out if it turned out to be, check out the video.

This gem re surfaced in my recommended watch list. The string of curse words when you broke off was just as funny as you dancing away from the yellow jacket that was five bombing.
Miss Joel, get him back already!!!
One of the best! My little kids, 6 and 8 boy and girl, will sit for hours watching your videos with me.
I like it when you show that anybody and everybody has a bad day fishing coming every once and while
I’m saving up for my first boat. Been watching your channel for last couple years. Love it. I can’t wait to go fishing on my own. Hopefully this year but probably will get my boat next year.
One of the best ever!! Had a aggravating day but this made it good!! Laughed my a off!!! Your competitions are the best!!
Man I’ve had all too many days like that where everything seems to go wrong. Lol. Love the video as usual. 👍🏼
Appreciate all your great videos!
This was freakin hilarious. Between your bad luck and the boys fighting a yellow jacket 😂😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha! 13:58 when you casted into that bird mid-flight!
Nice day of fishing looks like y’all had a great day. Keep up the good work
Lol !! I can't believe he actually had the net for you, after you helped him with the net so many times ! Great video man !!
SO ROOTING FOR JOEL! 5 minutes left in video. Can’t wait to see
Boy I've for sure had a couple of those moments. Lmao 🤣🤣🤣 Great content guys from one Louisianan to another
Love it!
16:46 🤣 that boy was MADDDDDD
Hey Marsh Man, enjoyed the video and especially your and your fishing buddies reaction to losing fish! It reminds me of some golfing friends that shared what a relaxing sport it is, then follow up by throwing the club about 50 yards because the bad shot. Glad you did not throw everything overboard!!! Just kidding, but we all have been there. Thanks for the tips and bait recommendation for catching MRGO trout.
Awesome video 💪🏾
I see y’all was running from that yellow jacket 🐝. Good trip And thanks for the video
In July 1997, my son & I went behind Clovely Farms in Cut Off, LA We busted them up, 4 hrs. 68 bass, all on a worm. they were in the mullets. I have it logged & pictures. 1 went 3lb. 10oz. I like watching your videos, keep it up. GRO-JOE
That was a fun video!!!!! Thank you MMM!!!’ Lol 🤣🤣
Hahahaha! 16:45 when you should've been using braid!
The next couple mins of video were extra hilarious! (Sorry you had some bad luck brotha-man!)
Dang yellow-jacket!
Good vid
Cool competition :) lets see who wins ,,
Lol dude. I don’t think I’ve heard you curse or even that much. Lol.
Glad you beeped it out. Need to work on keeping that under control.
I like yalls competitions! Glad y’all had fun.
same i was about to say that
Probably the most beeps I’ve heard in one of his videos-Todd’s like a serious competitor, I can dig that👍🏻
I use fluoro line (as opposed to fluoro leader) for my leaders. I use a loop knot I found at the DOA website and have not had noticeable knot failure issues.
I feel your pain with the fluorocarbon. I don’t use it at all anymore. Too many broken off fish and lost expensive lures
Hey I know that spot. Never caught a bass there before but I've had some of the best redfishing I've ever experienced right there on that point with live shrimp.
Do you ever cuss in any of your videos Todd?? Askin for a friend😂😂 great vid man
That’s my family’s camp, glad y’all had somewhere to stay dry!
Thx! Always a relief to find shelter in a storm
What I’ve found with fluoro you have to be real careful when tightening the knots because the line heats up and causes friction, either make less loops or more lube when cinching it down
Joel and Conner didn't do to bad today but you my friend was snake bit ( LOL ) as we say in Texas ! Nice haul of fish though.
The tide was ripping.....sure you were not in Atlantic or North Pacific....Just saw where there was a 23 ft tide change in Alaska....that is crazy! Nice friendly competition....ya'll were maul draggin em! Well I should say Joel and Conner were smoking them...You were sucking wind
What knot are tying with that flouro?
Haven't laughed like that in a while. Hit the frickin bird.
No shot if I had been TRYING to hit it
16:46 Mike Icanelli is in the house
Another great video. I read the comments. The guy who thinks he's a biologist should research why those bass don't get to be five lbs. I have some fishing videos that I've posted to UA-cam and had to do a "catch and release" because some local guys think I keep too often We eat a lot of fish but I also give fish to my neighbor who really appreciates it.
Pls do a Yeet sound effect every time u throw a fish
13:57 is a real Randy Johnson situation. Hahaha
How is the wagon wheel? Thinking about going next week.
How hungry does a fish that small have to be to attack something the same size as himself if not bigger🤣
That was my camp lol
Great place. I'm sure you have lots of happy days there
@ 7:08 what shrimp was that you was throwing?
I do a lot of shrimping in that area boat to big to pass threw the MR GO tho
The bleeps were funny....been there, done that
Does lake Bourne hold bass in the fall and winter?
The marshes to its west and south hold plenty
Hey brother if you see this please reply I'm the one to the beach the first week of September hoping to Target reds and flounder will they still be in the Marsh
Todd ,fun video. Do y’all ever try topwater frogs 🐸?? Tough luck buddy.
Lots. Particularly this time of year
Marsh Man Masson check out the scum frog launch ( the new one ☝️ in tanish brown ) it’s 💰 money
It's funny y'all call em bass. I fish the MRGO too and I usually just call 'em ditch pickles. Cause that's what they are ... ditch pickles.
U talking about running across lake Duke there is a boat landing right there in fact 3 of them
Where is that structure on google map?
You have 2 birds in the back of the boat.
That’s my friends family’s camp!
Everyone I asked said that canal was not good spot catch bass guess they bad at fishing looks like y’all pretty good
Todd you may want to change to a Palomar knot for fluorocarbon. (Much better than an improved cinch knot)
The Palomar is recommended for fluorocarbon only if the angler makes sure the line doesn't cross on itself.
@@MarshManMasson Forgot to say how much I like and appreciate your videos. Like Tony Tiger says, "Theyrrrr Great!"
*watch as Joel uses a technique to swat wasps indigenous fisherman created hundreds of years ago-up until the 20th century, billed caps have increased aiming accuracy 38%*
yeah, there's not a whole lot of wasp-swatting fabric on a visor
Dang Todd it definitely was not your day. Tell the boys not to get used to it cause it doesn’t happen that often
doesn't matter what I tell them. I'll hear about it for months
Man, that break off was painful. Flouro is pointless and a waste of money. Check out saltstrong's stuff on Flouro vs. Mono. Personally, thats exactly why I like nothing but Mono. No leader knots or extra points of failure. Got some on my rods 5 years old and still going strong.
Rated M for mature ha love it
Yeah, not my best moment lol
Five bass disliked this video.
Never mind, boat full of birds. 🤣
Eveytime Connie come you struggle just if you noticed lol but you always redeem yourself
No doubt. I said the same thing. He's like kryptonite or an albatross or a black cloud. But he's like my second son, so I can't just blow him off. Much as I might want to ...
Marsh Man Masson I understand he’s a great kids but marsh man always redeems himself love the show brother god bless keep fishing 🎣 🎣🎣🎣💯
Great video....check out some of our bass fishing videos from Florida...keep fishing
opps, I meant to say "...catching bass in the marsh or MRGO.
Hey man, I have an interesting proposition for you, your UA-cam Channel, and myself.
I have a 17’ 2007 Xpress H51 with a 90hp Yamaha, lowerance elite 7 ti2, brand new I pilot terrova. I want to sell it bc I want to change things up a bit but I would rather see it go to someone who loves fishing but doesn’t have the means of cash or credit to have the opportunity to have a boat like this. Maybe we can workout a deal and you can raffle if off to your viewers on UA-cam. I think it would be cool for your Channel.
What a dirty rotten shame!
I know you catch a lot of bass in Delacroix but in the past 3 years I’ve noticed the decline of striped bass. I haven’t caught one in Delacroix since 2019 July 4th. I notice you don’t catch them in your videos too. In about 2015 you can catch like 4-5 each trip. Now you can’t see them at all or only catch one a year.
I was fishing a bass tournament in Delacroix a couple weeks ago. Striped bass were schooled up thick in a couple different areas. First time I’ve seen them like that.
Sorry, I can’t watch anymore. The reason your not hitting 3/4 lb Bass or bigger. You are keeping and eating the dinks.
I don’t go for the reasons you used in the past !! I’m out!!
You couldn't be more wrong, but you probably think you know more than any biologist. See ya!
