Thanks for always posting such high-quality, entertaining, and informative vids! The side humorous comments are always entertaining. Yours and Bama's are my favorite channels. Keep up the great work! 👍
Everybody loves boat fishing but honestly ever since you sold your boat your content his surely improved mainly on creativity the editing was always there
I love this channel. I’m new to this style of fishing. We escaped California 3 years ago and just finally getting our nice big Parker back out on the water. Life has been hell lately, but still glad we moved to the east coast.
I quit 2 years ago I fished over 30 years of bass tournaments it was addictive best thing I ever did started kayak about 12 years ago now that’s what I do
If you're releasing those fish, you really need to keep your booger hooks (fingers) out of his gills... That being said, looks like a kick in the pants! Tight lines
They responded to every comment with a like but this one. It’s sad seeing it being done I mean that’s like a doctor cutting us open and fingering our lungs freely. How they gonna breath and filter whatever they do with messed up gills. Speakin truth. They probably killed em for later lol
Awesome, Brant! I've never been so tense about sumbuddy eltse's championship and I hope you'll keep on with em. Wishing Melanie the best of good luck at snook fishing.
I grew up fishing bass tournaments with my dad even fished a couple semi pro circuit tournaments and I love them!!! Now I've never fished a saltwater tournament I rarely even fish saltwater which is kind of odd considering I live in SW Louisiana but I love catching redfish they fight hard as hell. We have a couple rivers that have saltwater sides and the water gets kind of brackish on the freshwater side and redfish will travel between them. When you have a redfish crush a crankbait while you're bass fishing it'll get your heartrate up especially when you're fishing a bass tournament!!!
Your title implies you're quitting tournaments for something that happened during the video. Not, that it's your last one of the season or year. An otherwise excellent video was hampered by waiting for a conclusion that never happened. That's dumb. Now, your channel will be ignored. Maybe blocked.
I was down in Orange Beach yesterday just trying to catch some whiting from shore to use for cut bait for a red. Dang 30” red hit my whiting rod 20’ off the beach by 7 am. I thought about keeping it and calling it a day, but when my day started off that good, I figured there were plenty of other fish in the sea, not so much though. Did finally hit a 22” sail cat in the head with one cast and watched your catch, clean, and cook video to see how to prep it. Keep up the great work!
That’s why fishing is such a great sport, you never know. Thanks for doing the channel. You’re a great rep for the sport. Happy anniversary to you and your lady.
Happy Anniversary to the bote o youse (that's S. FL talk. Also known as South New York/New Jersey.) I'm a Broward County native, born in Holy Cross Hospital in '61 & grew up in Pompano Beach. Hope you guys have a blast in my old stomping grounds. There are snook to be had. Be careful cuz linestripers can be addictive. Melanie hooks a couple a big ones, Brent, & you may end up a snook widower. :)
I had a similar problem with walleyes in a tourney... Measure was obviously under but after a relaxing nap in the livewell he grew an amazing 1/2" and ended an 1/8" over
In the state of Washington we have our rules to keep fish then tournament rules. For an example some lakes you can Keep any bass under 12 inches and only 1 over 15, but that doesn't apply when fishing a tournament because the state knows the fish are gonna be released.
Never have tourneyed, it seems like the pressure of it would take the fun out of leisure fishing. Just too serious for me. But I do enjoy watching your tourney videos. I'm pulling for you with your every cast, so I am tourney fishing vicariously through you. Good Job! Great videos. Keep em coming. Good luck with the snook, Mel!
It is different than leisure fishing but you wouldnt go into a tournament with a leisure fishing mindset. It is fun just like any competitive sport can be fun. I havent tourneyed in a while but I miss it
Thanks for the great video good fun getting close to the limits bet it was a relief when it was within the limit! Have a great anniversary you and the Mrs
Awesome job man. I really enjoy watching you and Beach Bum. I cant fish bc I tore 2 tendons in my shoulder. It will be next year before I'm able. So getting to watch your videos helps keep depression down and gives inspiration for the next year to come. I live by dauphin island and I really love the salt life. Keep your lines tight . God bless.
Good job. Congrats to Lance as well. And happy anniversary to you and Melanie! You best be planning to wine and dine het on your trip. You’ve got a special lady there my man!
Hey Howdy Brant. Slot Reds.. Get em Brant, I've got faith in you man. in spite of the title. GET THE NET. ...Hahaha, hey Brant this good thing about getting old is I know I had watched this but could not remember the ending. lol Great video, I've enjoyed it twice now. Thanks and Congrats.
Great job Brant. Glad to see you had a good tourney season. Next year help your little brother out and take Beach Bum with you to the tourneys. That would make some pretty entertaining vids if you ask me. Thank you so much boss and keep the great fishing vids coming. ;-)
I know some enjoy tournaments and I used to fish some but it took a little bit of the fun away as well. If you post them I will watch them but you fishing by yourself or with BBB is more enjoyable for me!
Love your vids Brant! Keep it up. You catching and seeing you and your wife cooking is awesome. Yesterday my son caught his first Spanish mackerel and he actually liked the dinner. Great times!
Hell yeah Brant! You totally lucked out on those Reds...that day was totally in your favor. Definitely keep on those tournaments! You never know...you might gain more sponsorships if you keep winning...or atleast bragging rights.
I haven't been. So nervous waiting on that weight in .! I was biting my nails ,. I was trying to help you guys out with my virtual 🎣 fishing , But i didn't hook a single one. Awesome Job guys.
@@pauldevlin3646 dohc take up too much room and are a pain. pushrod are much better truck motors which is why chevy has always had them and dodge dropped the 4.7.

@@peterbiltxr379 lmao I said super cars because obviously they have the best technology in them. My 7 year old f150 with a DOHC eco boost in it and a light tune blows out new Chevy v8’s regularly.

I absolutely loved this video. What a beast slot fish! I will definitely hit the 👍🏻 It looks like I need to go catch some redfish. That’s something I’ve never done. The drag was screaming 😄... Great job dude! Happy Anniversary to you both! 🥂
Somebody needs to come up with a screaming drag ringtone! I might answer more often, or It might make me load up the gear and head to the beach! It may turn me into a real beach bum.
I love catching redfish but when I was in Florida I work down there at the time now I'm retired I got a place in Bonita springs can I come down about four times a year but I have a friend that's north of Tampa lives in Hudson and I used to hit the grass flats there between the trout the redfish and then at night I hit the docks for snook and I've killed some big snook the first big snook I caught was 42 in caught on a long a bomber lure chartreuse color I found after that day snook love that particular lure keep it up though man the best high in the world is catching a fish eat if you don't catch fish you still get to be with nature keep up the good work man love you channel
Happy anniversary Bro! I was so afraid you were gonna get shafted...I've seen it happen Guys! God Bless, count your blessings, and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! - hedge
Lol..... that was my buddy and I fishing from the pier when youh guys launched. Got a 27 inch yesterday....nothing the morning of the tournament. Would of said hello!! Greg B.
Sounds like a really tough set of circumstances, obviously don't want to throw a winning fish away, but taking a chance on tournament official disqualifying a fish
if you bring in an illegal fish, what does the tournament do? I think it should be a DQ, but I have seen a lot of illegal fish turned in at tournaments and they just don't count it.
Wow I thought you guys won it for sure. Well done fellas 🤙🤙. Make a great team. I'm sure you can get team of the year if you qualify next yr. Keep on keepin on.
I love those fishing tournaments at least you don’t have to kill the fish. I would love to be your partner for fishing 🎣 I never been in a fishing tournament but I would love to try
Thanks for watching! You guys are awesome.

People who don’t think fishing is a sport gotta watch Brant tournament fish. Kinda off in the beginning then started going crazy 🔥🤙🏻 Nice job
Congratulations Brant!!!! Great job. Please continue the tournament series, it’s an awesome series.
If that gets them pissed i guessing cutting the the tail down half an inch with a scissors would be frowned upon.
Respect to the catch weigh and live release! I have seen so many tourneys that are NOT. SAD
Happy Anniversary Brant. 🍾🥂 I like the tournament vids. 👍

“No boats within 200 ft of the pier” 😂

Crazy in texas you can keep 3 reds between 20-28in and tag one “Bull” red 29+
Well done. I'm wishing that I could just catch pinfish, but I live in Indiana.
What do you fish for in Indiana?

Happy Anniversary to you and Melanie! 😁👍🏻
Thank you
Im not a mathematician by no means but i dont believe you were 200 ft away from that dock 😂🤣😂🤣
It’s open to fishing right now
what setup are you using? Reel and Rod...
What is the device beside you brant? Its different from fish finder...it look like space ship with the stick ...
Lol..... that was my buddy and I fishing from the pier when youh guys launched. Got a 27 inch yesterday....nothing the morning of the tournament. Would of said hello!! Greg B.
Were you using Gulp shrimp?
Too much pressure!!!!🤣

Woulda been more worried about the FWC officer...
Love the tournament videos Brant! hope to see more!
Great video, happy anniversary be safe and have a blessed thanksgiving
I just caught a 52 inch red yesterday here in baffin bay it was a monster!!!
Heck yeah man I like the tournaments nothing wrong with a little competition. OK my friend keep yourself hooked up 🚣♂️🇺🇸
if you bring in an illegal fish, what does the tournament do?
I think it should be a DQ, but I have seen a lot of illegal fish turned in at tournaments and they just don't count it.
That first fishing pier you were fishing under, what pier is that? And what city?
Yessir more tournaments!!!
Tahniah...👍
That was a great day...😃
When you say if this post gets 200 likes everyone ok ok ok
Congrats and hope she catches her first Snook.
Did your guy slam the red on the nose to try and knock a half inch out when y'all kinda cut the shot? "That measures brother!"
Happy late anniversary to you guys. Have Fun.
Are you allowed to fish live bait or cut bait in a tournament?
Wow I thought you guys won it for sure. Well done fellas 🤙🤙. Make a great team. I'm sure you can get team of the year if you qualify next yr. Keep on keepin on.
