Headed back this season. Can’t wait to see Ted and his staff again. Brining one of my boys friends this year as well. Something special about grooming the next generation of fisherman/women. No better place to do it in!
First and last time I watch the show...I do a lot of fishing. I am always appalled when I see a "fisherman" holding the fish out of water while they catch a photo opp. and have a discussion. I always think shows like this should be showing people the "right way to do things"...Sorry if you are going to do catch and release be considerate...The fish has just been fighting the hosts are holding them out of the water while they discuss what a "great catch" it is. I think they should keep them in the water (try bending down and leaning over the water) or one of them can hold their breath and see how long they last. Fish can get a condition called exertional rhabdomyolysis. They can die up to two days after release from lactic acid build up and kills the kidney). It is exacerbated by being held out of the water. Bass are more resilient than other game fish but how many times do the have to hold a fish out to show us.... finally try bending down to resuscitate the fish before dropping it in the water from a height.
