Never waited for a tourney video from any of the pros like I’ve waited for this. Keep it up man🍻

Next season he’ll be fishing elites

Same. I've never waited on a tourney vid until now. The fact u caught the hybrid just for fun shows u r out there just having a good time. Much love brother

Get it Bro! I'm glad for you man! Lot of us "Just Fishermen" rootin for ya. You didn't come along with an already established name or a bunch of people pushing you through. You grinder from the bottom, so you got my respect dude. I've been caring for my Mother on Hospice since mid November....watching your videos has helped (as a great distraction) more than you can know. I can't get out on the water as much as I'd like, but watching has kept the fire in me. I have got on a few great Jerkbait bites on the few days out though. Anyhow, good luck! 👍

You have worked so hard and came so far! Your journey is so inspirational!Your family, friends, and the people you surround yourself with deserve allot of praise! Keep it up, the sky is the limit!

Absolutely love seeing you in the bass master I’ve been watching since before you quit your job!!!! KEEP LIVING THE DREAM!!!!!!!

Bro, I have been watching this channel since 2018. I have watched you become and absolutely ELITE fisherman. You are real fucking deal my man. Much love and respect from the MFer community!

I'm glad to see a Nebraska boy doing awesome things. Keep living your dream.

Amazed how you still keep up on the commentary to make it informative even while a high stakes tournament is happening. Tight lines!

This was great tournament footage. Usually don't care for people's tourney vids this was different. It was great!

Congrats on the top 5 finish brother. 👏

Good luck I’m pulling for you to make the elites.

Just another day at the office. Great video and camera boat.

You put in the work and deserve it. Congrats 👊

Thanks for sharing your video's and to all that help put them together, keep up the good work. Definitely the best "fishing show" by far you have it all rolled into one, Action, knowledge, and a little bit bloopers. Nothing but the best to you and yours.

Man been a M,FER since day one when you quit your job to go on this journey, and to see it all culminate into you smacking them in your first tourney is pretty awesome!!!!!!!

Great job Ben. These videos are all going to be must see tv!

Keep up the good fishing!!

Good luck brother! Maybe this Alabama weather won’t mess up the bite to bad. Pulling for you!

Got a good feeling for you Ben. I really do. I just feel the win coming already.

YES FINALLY!!!!

I think you are going to crush this class. You are an amazing Fisherman.
