Bro when's Prigozhin mad lad video coming?
No thanks, got a virus warning.
I ain't gonna play the shit but I downloaded it ya bum. ✌️🥸🖕
Staahhhhp man.
Hell no.
I just want to recognize, the absolute obsession, dedication, and badassery of the autist that went out of his way to stakeout a cheating fisherman. That dude is the hero in this story.
Never mess with a man's fishing. For the generations that grew up without smart devices, it's a sacred thing.
lmao
I mean it's a sport based almost entirely on patience and the hope that if you wait just a little longer you'll get lucky. Really fishing is one of the worst things to try to cheat at because it's entirely unsurprising that someone was aggrieved and obsessed enough to figure out how he was getting screwed.
@@calexander7495-spend 12 hr fishing, might not catch anything
-spend 12 hr watching that guy, because me and bill got a feeling he’s a fuckin cheater.
@@Xaxp It's a way to get food to eat lol.
I think Dank is more angry about this guy cheating at fishing that I've ever heard him over anything else.
Right? Lolz that's what I thought. Hilarious.
Because he got cheated during a angler competition from a good price
I sent this video's link to a girl that goes fishing with me. The Message just said "come be belligerent and angry with me".
doin the Lord's work on his latest crusade, if it is a crusade it's probably because the Holy Land is preoccupied at the moment
The only thing that could have got him more heated would be if the bloke also worked for the SNP
As a Scotsman - That story about how some lad cheated Marcus out of winning 1st prize at a fishing competition, and how he's still seething about it 20 years later, might be one of the most Scottish things he's ever said. 🤣
He missed out on a really nice fishing rod prize. You can forgive but never forget
I'm a chick, auzzy, and have only fished mabey 2 dozen times in my life. I'm pissed on his behalf. I'd be pissed all my life as well.
It reminded me of :
Principal Skinner: Well you Scottish certainly are a contentious people.
Groundskeeper Willie: YOU JUST MADE AN ENEMY FOR LIFE!
In Somerset villages, this would last generations 😂
Hell american here, and I would absolutely have a chip on my shoulder for the rest of my days if that happened to me. F cheaters, if ya gotta cheat, you probably should think about a different hobby cause chances are your shit at it.
People: "Mike Long"
Dankula: "Make Lawn"
Make Lawn, the fesher
Po-tay-toe, po-taw-to
You missed the opportunity to title it; "the fishiest cheater"
People unfamiliar won’t get the reference and click though
That pun is bass-ic.
Pin worthy tbh.
Or or or THE FISHY FISHERMAN
@ScottLovenberg Definitely high on the SCALE
Fun fact: one of those walleye cheaters got arrested again for trying to pass fake $100 bills used in Hollywood films.
and the POS gave them to his son to try and use them.
@Chris-sf7ug Af least this time, he didn't avoid jail. Hopefully, his suspended sentence gets tacked on to his current 11 months 29 days.
A counterfeit $100 holds the same value as a real $100 bill until someone notices hahaha
One of those cheaters had their house burned down as well
no value, just a piece of fance paper xD @@clamcrewcarclub6017
"It's kind of hard to touch grass in the middle of a lake"
He's a god damned poet
Hearing that dankula hates baitcasters has made my day ❤
My biggest fish was a 25lb catfish that took the energy out of me to pull out of the Ohio river. I was so exhausted from fighting that thing it wasn't funny.
A week later, a story came about that a six-year-old pulled a 75+lb cat from the river and I was ridiculed for calling bullshit on the story.
Little kids have the best luck with fish some times. I remember being about 9 and getting a huge sturgeon on a lake in northern MN when I was fishing with my dad and a fishing tour guy. The tour guy saw it as soon as it came close and grabbed the reel from me trying to get it out (no way I could have). It ended up breaking free before it got to the boat and the guy was so upset that I had hooked it lol.
We were fishing in Colorado, before it went woke. Saw a little girl, maybe 5 hrs old, get a 9 inch trout on her Barbie rod. Her dad helped get it in, all in view of the fish and game officer. Can’t beat Barbie.
@@joanscott8698 Hell of a story, or amusing typo? Yes.
I've been looking for the biggest perch at my local lake for years, pb so far is only 910 grams but I know for a fact much bigger perch live there because a 9-year-old caught a 2kg perch with an earthworm and an old timey fishing pole. That kid used all his beginner luck in one catch, good for him.
That fish would have outweighed the kid by 20-30lbs.
The kid might have HOOKED a 75lb fish, but they certainly didn't land it.
Personally, my favorite part about using bait casters is messing up my cast in the slightest way and spending the rest of my fishing trip restringing my rod.
Even a single bird's nest can set me off in an irrational rage, so _rarely_ I will bring out my BC, fish it until it inevitably gets tangled, take a _deep_ breath, and switch to a spinny boi. It's faster to switch to your sidearm than beat a dead horse, or whatever they say. You know what I mean!
Used a BC until I got ONE nest! Looked at it for a few seconds contemplating what just happened. As my blood pressure rose, I began to throw it Immediately into the lake, rod and all, until my buddy calmed me down by offering to buy it from me lol. Never touched one since.
@@sexistspaghettios I went once to my go-to shop, bought a BC because it was on sale, didn't even know at that time that BCs are completely different than spinning reels (Fairly enough to mention I only have been in the hobby for 2 years now...). First cast and I immediately got a bird's nest and fucking frustrated that I gave it back the next day.
Birds nests are the most enjoyable part of fishing
tschh, I feel sorry for all of you who can't cast a bait caster, and I look down on you while I chuck a 6 oz muskie lure nearly to the other bank of a farm pond full of blue gill. No I have never caught a fish but goddamn I look cool.
Mike Long’s parents missed a huge opportunity to give their kid the funniest name ever with the middle name Cox
Every time I saw these hats getting longer and more intricate, I just started cracking up. I’m just imagining some making a business out of that specifically and making an absolute killing
4:20 When the walleye fishing scandal happened, you could tell the honest fishers wanted to kill the cheaters. What happened was these two fishermen were stuffing the fish they caught with weighted balls. The full videos of them being caught is on youtube and tiktok. The other fishermen were yelling and screaming at them, getting in their faces and things got so heated cops had to escort them to safety. They were arrested, banned from ever fishing again and are now in debt due to how much money (and a boat might they add) they stole from their cheating tactics
Never mess with another man's fish
Jacob Runyan and Chase Cominski Spring 2022. Cost them over $105,000.00 I believe Sandusky,Ohio
😮😮😮
Interesting timing for this video to drop. Was only 2 days ago I remembered that video and decided to go have another watch. Not often in life you see a man look as utterly defeated as that guy did while surrounded by an angry mob of fishermen lol.
Neat...another profession that allows men to act like children.
Losers and winners alike.
What an autistic manchild game fishing, an ancient means of providing food for family, turned into. Hunting for sport or fishing for sport was always a mistake.
Dank was cheated out of a Scottish Parliament seat
But at least he got a seat on the Supreme Court as a consolation prize.
Can you buy one?
@joanscott8698 probably. Have seen congress and the presidency?
@@joanscott8698no but you can buy a scottish mp instead
by an englishman, no less
That damn accent. At one point I was thinking, "Fashion? Why's he talking about his love of fashion? I thought this was about fishi........ohhhhh. He IS saying fishing."
🤣😂🤣
I’m a new viewer so I thought the same thing 😂😂
as someone who grew up in Louisiana's dirt roads where in the summer we ate fish, in the autumn squirrel and rabbit and in the winter we ate deer and filled the freezer with it the idea of hunting or fishing "for sport" just never landed for me. We ate this with peas, beans, squash and okra from the garden and We engaged in the activities of hunting and fishing and vegetable gardens because it was the least expensive way available to feed ourselves and our families despite being incredibly time consuming. We never made mockery of the animals, we were always thankful for the bounty of the land and only a once in a lifetime buck was ever mounted on our walls. Maybe that way of doing things is passe but I have to say, the times spent with my family out there doing it are some of my best memories.
Never in a million years would I have guessed he was a fishing enthusiast.
I believe he mentioned it on his second channel. The video was about the local council where he's from trying to drain a reservoir that was stocked with fish, and that he'd spent a lot of time fishing at it when he was growing up.
On his Twitter he sum times posts himself and the boys finishing. The first post I saw of him on his Twitter was him speaking normal Scottish like with his lads and not understanding him at all. Funny shit
@@galloglaigh8198I'm sure I've heard him say he loved fishing multiple times. Maybe on the autism podcast? Or maybe on second channel videos. But certainly more than once.
He's a man of culture, of course he would love fishing
Lives on an island
Throwing in all the fishing puns, makes this video so much better.
And with a straight face, no less. Impressive.
I’m only disappointed that there wasnt a rolling counter
It had me hooked.
Its far more *alluring!*
I don't think I could've ever realized how many apply. Well done.
I'm reasonably sure Dank only made this video to make all of the dad jokes/fishing puns he possibly could and that makes me simultaneously irrationally angry and awed.
"Argue about it in the comments, I don't read those"
One thing Mr count failed to mention that is impossible to know unless you know about fishing is (love your videos btw) long was snagging these fish while they were spawning. Basically when bass spawn they go to clear, shallow water to reproduce, when they do this they are already vulnerable because they stay in a about a 5 foot radius of where they spawn in and are easily spotted. Bass spawn in the same areas that things like bluegill and crawfish are typically found, which is why they hang around the area to protect the eggs from these predators. There’s no telling how many potential giants he killed because without the female bass (which are the true giants) to protect the eggs it’s incredible how fast predators come in to eat the eggs, destroying valuable fry that have the dna to make them true giants.
Thank you for adding this key component to the story. I believe for the most part the true giants get that way because of genetics and smarts. Bass are super vulnerable during the spawn and the giants are MUCH much more difficult to catch while on bed than average size fish. This makes Mikes snagging even more despicable 🤬
No one likes a Spawn Camper.
Where I grew up, Bass season started June 15th, which is after they're done spawning, there. As far "snagging" bass lying on their eggs, that's not necessary. When they're protecting their eggs, bass will strike at ANYthing that comes near.
@@harrymills2770 bass on beds aren’t always easy to aggravate and catch. The giants (10+) are often almost uncatchable while on the bed.
I honestly consider it evidence just how much damage 1 POS can do to an entire ecosystem/community. It only takes 1 person with no conscience to really screw over everyone. And consider this, the guy is only doing this to something as banal as fishing. People like him exist everywhere: politics, business, military, healthcare, and entertainment. When WW3 happens it truly will be the end of everything.
I've forgotten Dank was a fisherman.
All the great men are fishermen.
i jsut learnt it today! i though he was a bouncer and a guard but never read that part of the dank lore
As a fellow fisherman, it makes me like him even more.
@@theALTF4: He was a bouncer/bodyguard before UA-cam. Fishing is more of his hobby.
You might say he is a master baiter.
There’s a definite divide between fishermen who think fishing is relaxing (guys who use bobbers, worms and powerbait while sitting in a chair) vs serious, crazy, mental patient fishermen (like me) who are really proactive and spend the day pitching docks, hopping hollow body frogs under trees and twitching flukes above grass beds. Whenever I tell someone I’m going fishing and they say “ooo that’ll be a nice, relaxing day”, it’s hard not to get into it and tell them truth…which is that I’ll be stalking around the lake in my boat like fucking Rambo with 7 baitcasting combos on deck.
The cherry on top was Dankula's rant about bait casters. That was so satisfying.
I know a torch is just a flashlight but there is something funny and savage about rolling up in someone’s house with a bit of blazing firewood to intimidate them.
2 things, half hour of dank doing fishing puns, this is a gift from the gods themselves. Secondly, I lost a golf tournament by one stroke to a dude that cheated. 26 years later I am still angry and still bring it up every time I see him
There are two passtimes in which cheating is unforgivable; fishing and golf.
Tall tales, on the other hand are the lifeblood of both.
@@notshapedforsportivetricks2912 facts!
I know his cousin. Mike Ox-Long
Gribble, this fish is frozen.
Disappointed his parents didn't give him the middle name "Hawk" totally missed opportunity there
Surely you mean "Ox"
Long, Mike Hawk sounds funnier. Considering being a dick. @@RCuriousPilot
“How many fish puns can you insert in a video?”
Dankula: “Y E S”
You can really see how much Markus loves fishing puns lmao
Dank is to Mike Long what Karl Jobst is to Billy Mitchell.
If I had a nickel for everytime there was a guy named Mike Long who was a notorious cheater in the competitive scene for a hobby meant for having fun, I would have two nickels.
Maybe that video is on the way too. Dank is a big nerd bird.
Which isn't alot but its weird that its happened twice
who's the other Mike Long you're referring to?
I don't know about competition and cheating in fishing, but where I'm from, lying about fishing is a recognized art form.
My grandfather, for example, went barefoot water skiing with his fishing pole once, being pulled by a Whopper. I wasn't there, but heard ALL about it.
I believe in that story with all my heart.
Ya the thing with family is, there’s at least an 80% chance that they’re not BS’ing.
But that twenty lingers, doesn’t it.
I’m sorry… theres something fishy about this guy
Oh yeah, fisherman's tall tales are a time honored tradition of the sport, much like hunting. Difference is 90% of those stories are harmless drinking banter and didnt actually rob someone of hard earned prize money or a potential sponsorships
Not the same
If you listen hard enough, you can hear Dank straining with all his might to refrain from saying “there’s something a bit Fishy about this…”
No way!! I used to fish with him back in the day and sounded the alarm over a decade ago but he had a huge following and no one believed me until several years ago when he was caught
"I caught an ichtyosaur once but I let it go as I thought it might be a protected species."- Long probably
Mary Anning would be so annoyed by that bullshit!
So many puns and dad jokes. This video deserves hall of fame level recognition.
I knew exactly who it was right when I saw his thumbnail in the picture. I’ve actually met this guy in the early 2000s while all of this was going on. Amazing video dank.
The nonstop fish puns had me green about the gills
Man. The Walleye Fall Brawl a few years ago. $100000 boats and fish stuffed with lead weights. Me and my dad were in that tournament, didnt win it, but ive talked with people who saw the people hey caught first hand. People about started brawling. Same dudes also poached a bunch of deer and cheated in other tournaments too, won hundreds of thousands of dollars. Hardly got an consequences
“WE GOT WEIGHTS IN FISH”!!!!!!!!!!! One of the best sound bytes in history
@@alecbaldwinsnotpropgun Yeah one of the guys who comes into our local bait shop a bunch recorded that video. Said they had to hold everyone back from beating the shit out of the guys.
Yeah I know a guy that's pretty open about cheating crappie tournaments
Mike Long is ok, but no one catches as many fish as Mike Hawk.
I once dipped my worm in mike hunt.... i guess that didnt really work lol
Tjats alright! I persoablly may not touch the bottom but I'll sure stretch out the sides!
Oh, wait.......SH**!!!!!!!
@lucassmith1886
My youth camp counselor use to teach me alot about Mike Hawk.
heard he learned his ways from Mike Hunt
Mike Ox Long catches bigger fish, though.
This was a refreshing change of story topic, I definitely want to see more random stuff like this. Thank you Dankula and team, you all put out amazing content, the best written scripts on this platform, and the cheekiest humor too ❤
I’ll be honest, after reading about the purpose of a baitcaster I gotta agree with Dank here. Baitcaster reels give convenience at most, and will only ever help you have the farthest cast or the quickest reel. Neither increase the chance of catching something so unless you’re going out to big-dick about casting distance you’re just as well off finding your old fisher price rod from when you were little
I never understood why snagging was illegal because you can’t control how the fish gets on the hook.
I didn’t realize people were straight up intentionally trying to snag 😂
I would keep any I snagged accidentally if they were legal length, although that's never happened to me. Tiny bass and small pickerel are the only ones I accidentally snag and that's more their fault than mine, due to their aggressive behavior.
Because lactic acid buildup in the tissues of the fish can kill it. Hooking the mouth allows the water to still flow over the gills efficiently as you fight it, so there's less buildup when the fish is landed. Thus it has a better chance to survive to weigh in and release.
My father once caught 2 trout at once. First one took the bait and was hooked in the mouth and another got snagged on the hook.
Actually, the whole point of good fishing technique is that you _can_ exert some control over how you hook the fish by using the equipment & techniques specific to catching certain species. You're also enticing them to bite. Accidents happen, but the damage to the fish is usually pretty minor in those cases because the fish got itself snagged. With deliberate snagging the fish doesn't need to be going for the bait or lure at all... any fish of any size that swims within snagging distance can wind up with a hook in it's body or fins, If you want to see how bad Intentional snagging can get, check out the surveillance that Alaskan Park Rangers have to do each salmon season... snaggers are such a menace that salmon stocks are declining in some areas, because so many fish are dying from wounds before they make it to the spawning areas.
@@medea27 thanks for the info brother. I’m a hobbyist fisherman so I’m not able to “set the hook” I just kinda yank when I get a good enough bite and pray I can bring them in
2nd video dank has mentioned being cheated out the fishing win as a kid. That must keep him awake at night
I thought that story sounded familiar lmao
@@mementomori771 yeah, he brought it up on the second channel when those dudes got busted at that walleye competition last year
To this day I complain about being cheated out of placing first in a Taekwondo tournament when I was 12 years old. Some sins are unforgivable and unforgettable!
Fish want me, women fear me.
Up here in Oregon the fish and game wardens will ruin your year if they catch you snagging. It's essentially poaching. They'll hide in bushes with ghillie suits and bust your ass. I've bumped into a couple of them who were trying to catch Russian nationals snagging on a local river
As a fellow fisherman and a Southern Louisiana Native, I can say that this guy really did make a lot of fishermen angry for cheating the way he did.
Not as bad as my dad, bought loads of expensive fishing gear (we were poor af and he had never even mentioned fishing).
He used to come back with a nice fish every day he went out and we’d eat it. Years later it turned out, he never fished and would just go Sainsbury’s and buy a fish off the counter.
A man’s dedication to not wanting to admit he was wrong. I respect it
My uncle had an issue with addiction. When he gave up coffee, alcohol, tobacco and gambling he took up fishing. He’d be out from 5 am to 5 pm every day, spent tens of thousands on fishing gear. Pretty sure he just bought fish because he never seemed to bring back anything local lol.
Lol they also were cheating, but on their wives.
@@shino8854 maybe, but I did see him out fishing a few times and so did others
Moral of the story, kids? Dads come back from fishing.
I remember following this incident more closely than I probably should have. I'm so happy to see that Dank covered it
I use both types of reels, the main advantage to baitcasters is being able to play with the settings to get crazy distance on a cast. I cant think of anything else except maybe they're more comfortable.
There’s some form of primal rage from men when it comes to hunting/fishing cheating. More of a hunter myself but this video still hits home. Everyone hates cheaters. Great vid tho dank.
I think it's because honest hunters and fishermen obey the rules, even the arguably silly or contradictory ones. So it sticks in our craw when some other clown is spotlighting deer or snagging a catch.
@mikemcdonald1999 It's not just that. I rely on venison for food. It's disrespectful to the game animals, it makes us all look unethical, and it harms the environment by increasing the risk of over hunting/ fishing in an area. Which in turn reduces the number of permits and licenses available which reduces how much venison I can hunt for food.
@@samuelwahls8315 Why does "cheating" bother you so much? I love wild game but I don't really enjoy typical sport hunting at all. I don't even have a hunting license. I'm going to gut, clean and process the animal for personal consumption for me and my family. It's so much better to just spotlight deer at night and choose the one I want. I honestly don't understand the big deal.
@@kurtdavis7588 in Nebraska taking game legally helps support the local economy in many areas as well as funds the Game and Parks commission as well as their biologists who track and study the animals. I don't think someone who admits to poaching in a youtube comments section has a high enough IQ to understand that.
@@kurtdavis7588 Of course a poacher isn't gonna see any issues with unethical hunting practices. What a piece.

what’s the logo in your profile picture from?
Dank talking about "Broon Troot" is the most Scottish thing ever!
Welp, I knew shit about fishing but next time competitive fishing comes up in a conversation, I'm gonna tell this story as the expert that I am. And yes, I was there.
"Welp" is a noise an unhealthy puppy makes. It is not a word in the English language.
@@bl4558 Welp, cope and seethe about it
@@bl4558 "Welp" is an informal expression and variant of "well," used to acknowledge a circumstance or to transition into a conclusion, typically with an undertone of mild frustration, irony, or resignation.
As a proficient angler, I am glad you covered this story Count! Thank you!
“I will fight with you as my father fought your father as my grandfather fought your grandfather going all the way back to the 1990s when one of your ancestors cheat a fishing rod from us” ~Danks great great great great grandson
I once won a small local fishing contest when I was like 10 when one of my dads friends brought over a fish from another lake and i submitted that one, I even got into the local newspaper. I still feel guilty about it...
I feel like fishing with Dankula would be a good time. Be it drunk or sober
To anyone wondering bait casters do have advantages due to how they work. The easiest way to think about it is a baitcaster is a winch and is more efficient at pulling . They also give more control in aiming your cast . I also believe they allow for slightly more distance when casting.
I imagine with heavier line and baits the difference would be more and more noticable, until it's required. Like you said it's alot stronger design for reeling in. Deep sea reels are probably all bait castors.
@@Dirtbikekidlostinthewoodsactually that all depends here in wa they're mostly large spinning rods but

The dad jokes and puns in here, chef kiss. But that Lance Armstrong joke...
Bro your xenomorph fell over, save him
Dankula is more angry about the fishing competition then the pug arrest
This video is making me think of one more thing that I lost when our home burned down. What is christmas eve. I went fishing with my dad and I caught just under a ten pound bass when I was 12. My dad had it mounted. He was so proud of me catching that fish. Its gone, along with his 2 deer mounts that were in his office for decades. I miss my dad so much.
❤❤❤
Sorry to hear that brother
The world needs a Count Dankula fishing channel!!!!
Kudos for the excellent writing in this! So many puns, it was hilarious!
Today I learned what snagging is. I am not a competitive fisherman, but I love the hobby, and I love fish as an organism and as a source of meat.
I am thoroughly apalled and disgusted by this practice, and also outright enraged that people use this to cheat in tournaments. Fucking hell, thank you Dank for enlightening me.
I don’t even like fish and it made me cringe.
When my brother and I were around 8 or 9, my uncle finally took us fishing with him to try and teach us. The VERY FIRST fish I caught, I had snagged. :( Right on the side of its poor little body. I didn't really fish again after that.
@@LadyBeyondTheWall that's rough dude. But like Dank said, EVERYBODY snags at some point if you fish long enough. Typically on accident, like in your case.
My problem is with the people who do it on purpose. Because I like to go trout fishing, and usually that means going out to waters that are WAAAY cleaner than most and therefore need a little more care with how you act. I like to treat my catch with any level of dignity and respect I can give them, because I don't want to contribute to that species extinction if I can help it. So being unsportsmanlike is... well, a dick move.
I snag tilapia on purpose, simply because they’re an invasive species in my lake that destroy the local ecosystem and drive down the native populations. But in general it’s a pos thing to do.
I didn't even know it was considered bad. I've caught a couple by accident that way. Had a barracouta jump out the water at my lure I'd just pulled out, and he hooked himself on the way back down. I claimed it. Now I know.
This all reminds me so much of the King of the Hill episode where Hank was using crack cocaine to catch fish too bad he couldn't hook a hunter Biden trout.

All the puns, I love it 😂
Here I felt like a chad when I caught a 3lb brown trout in Morpeth river on my 2nd fishing trip in my life. Never caught a bigger fish, it was really tasty, we had it with lemon and a herby breadcrumb crust
I knew a guy once who cheated at fishing and the pet store also was upset with him because they also got in trouble.
Oof the snagging part got me, when i was 12 i accidentally snagged a sunfish (blue gill) in the eye and when i tried to pull the hook out i ripped out its eye. I felt so bad for it. I even remember the day at 27.
Danks videos have become an endless stream of bad puns and im here for it!
I’m not sure how I wound up here, but I’m loving learning about this deep fishing drama.
Catching tiger fish in Botswana taught me to use single hooks instead of trebles. Less foul hooks, less fish hurt and lost.
My grandad fished for seventy years and never used a treble or even double hook. He hated the thought that he might foul hook a fish. He also used pliers to press in the barb, or purchased barbless hooks. He thought barbs were unsporting.
@31:24 "the fishing community and the fish, entered an uneasy alliance against Long..." best line in the vid...
When the Mike Long story broke, it was like the entire world of bass fishing stopped for a couple of days. It was baaaaad, bad bad.
Great to have you back :) Hope you had a good Christmas break.
Wasnt it dankula who told us a cheater beat him in fishing or something

I'd argue that that would be Kevin VanDam
30 minutes of fishing puns from Dank.
Totally worth it.
"All about that bass, no minnows," just walked right past you, dude
it's reassuring that fisherman really care about nor hurting the fish.
It's practical, as much as anything else. You poke holes in fish, they get infected, then they get _really_ sick, and then the sickness spreads. You don't want a lake full of sick fish.
17:38 first time it happened to me I was reeling my line back so I could recast, and I was beyond confused when I found a fish had been grabbed by the hook (didn't even know that could happen)
Im so happy this was in my recommendeds. The fish jokes made my day! Thank you!! 😊😂
As an old man who watched way too many speedruns, that analogy was perfect lmao
Big props to Count Dankula for changing his shirt for the sponsored segments!
Youre gonna give it away
Out here we call it "foul hooking" instead of snagging. One time I foul hooked a red and reeled in just the eye😅.
*Mike Long? Never heard of him. Now Mike Oxlong on the other hand? Oh I know him well.* 😂😂😂😂😂
I've heard stories of cheating at fishing, but never one of this scale.
Sure. Pretty much everyone knows the take a hold of the measuring tape and twist method of getting few cm of extra length method, but to put weights into the fish or catch them into the sides or face wtf... I mean if you can see the damn thing, might as well go for the kill with the net at that point or bare hands. And here i was thinking throwing feed to get fish come near the lure was cheating and won competitions just using the lures and bait as you should, usually getting so many fish that didnt have time to enjoy it before next one hit, most eager jumped top of the water to hook them selfs few times. But this is just something else..
When I was 14 I accidentally snagged what would have been a state record fish by almost 7lb and was devastated to find out that it wasn’t eligible and got in trouble for not releasing the snagged catch and it’s engraved in my mind to this day how shit snagging is so moral of story don’t snag
Dear Count, I met a guy who was from Germany and I remembered the legendary dragon lord. Then I remembered that iconic orange beard
