    Hey man, you did a damn good job regardless of what place you took. The "win" is that you made it this far and have overcome all the other tests that got you here already. Juggling life and work, having a newborn, taking care of a family and business, traveling across the country AND all the while capturing it all on video (and not to mention the superior grade of editing for a finished product!) so that whether in the truck or in the boat, we all get to ride shotgun along the way with you! It was great to see my home waters and captured in only the way the @MillikenFishing channel can do. Being that I'm here in Florida, it's great to see a piece of home that has a storyline along with it that isn't of my own and rooting for someone I've never met personally but feel I have made a cool connection with made this chapter in your life's story one that was worth watching from the sideline and being invested in. Chin up bro... there's a whole lot of fishin' left. Believe in yourself and let the rest fall in place. 1st place preferably, but we'll take a top 10 to get ya in the bubble lol. Cheers man!🍻

    Man I’m so proud of you & slaw. I never had a UA-cam account but I wanted to make one to comment, I’ve been a fan for a minute and to see you fish professional and for Cole-slaw to be there (& family) it’s truly amazing. Idc if you placed last, you have taught me and I’m sure a lot of people things that we’re able to apply every time we cast. I hope to be your coangler one day, best of luck for the rest of the season.

    What's up Ben, Slaw, and Mfers 💥. Some great news: myself and a buddy of mine have been working on this plumbing company for over 5yrs! Last June I got my Masters Plumbing License and since then we've blown up! Today we found out that we're in the finals for the Best Plumbing company in the Baytown-Mont Belvieu Tx. area!! Super jacked! Had to share. We find out the winner tonight LFG 💥

    Hi Ben, stick it through, follow your dream and never give up. Remember when you gave up your full time job to fish on a UA-cam channel. Guess you never thought you would be here right now. Give thanks and keep on trucking mate.

    Been a blast watching the Tournament series so far. Competition is the ultimate test of angling ability, most people can catch fish when they can go where and when they want and fish how they want. Completely different story when there are 100 to 200 (or more) guys that all know what they are doing fishing when and where they are told. Best of luck for the rest of the season from an old Scottish competition angler that still wins the odd local event i enter here on the east coast of Scotland.

    Coming from someone ignorant to tournament fishing, (will be participating in my first next week) I say go out and have fun. You’re already in the Classic. The Elite Series is just icing on the cake. Keep digging. You got this.

  • @harryoffutt2179

    Ben, I will always be a fan. You are the most down to earth UA-camr on the planet. I have learned more from you about tenacity, about determination, and about fishing in general than any other UA-camr and all but maybe two guys in person. I loved it when you waded small frozen creeks with Salmon eggs, caught huge catfish w/Pornstach, and of course hunt small mouth with the wizard. Pulling for you to win, but still with you if you don't. If you get to MD, crab cakes are on me! Tight Lines and Happy fishing. Much success to you.

    I think you're rocking your first year there. Especially when the realities of the "game" become apparent and you really have to strategize how to achieve your goals.
    Besides that, to think that any of those negative commenters would make the front half of the bell curve their first go around as a pro circuit...lol.
    I think I would be inclined to tell them to "Put up or shut up".

    What you've done so far in your first season is incredible. I know you're going to make it to the Elites this year, BUT - on the off-chance that you come up a little short, it's your first attempt! I would hate to see this be your final attempt if you come up a little short on the first try. Keep grinding, and I think you are destined to win big.

And then I started to realize how good of a person he was and how real of a person he was he's not the clean cut front of magazine well spoken angler everyone is used to he's your typical pond hopper fish for the love of the sport guy. With all that said much respect and love mfer may God bless you and your family.

    You should talk to Justin at Kayak catfishing for Watts Bar. He actually locates his catfish based on the same way you'd locate bass regarding contour maps. Not saying he is a cheat code, but he's fished that body of water for years and could probably give you some good areas to check out.
    Hell, it would be cool to see y'all collab on a video sometime! Bring him over to fish for bass and you go over to him to fish for monster cats. It would be a helluva collab!
    Love the videos and congrats on moving up in points. The short game may be disappointing at times, but it's the long game that counts. Peace out MFers! 👊
