This is THE END of Tournament Fishing for Me...

Can we get a round of applause for Coleslaw and his wicked edits?

As long as you keep filming we'll keep watching! I've got 5 years invested in your content 😊

The frog shots that Slaw captured on the 5th day….top notch!

Man, we are all living vicariously through your fishing adventures. Don't ever stop! We are all in the boat with you, excited about every bite, every hookset. I, for one, am a fan. I've learned more about fishing in the past couple of years than i ever figured out on my own. Your content is second to none.
Much love and respect to you, my brother.
Tight lines for life!

Ben, been watching your videos for a few years now after a good friend put me onto them. I cut my teeth fishing in Southern Iowa on many of the same lakes in your earlier videos and since have been closely following you on your exciting EQ journey. So friggin stoked to see you absolutely crush it this season man! Your actions of hard work, pumping out amazing content, and catching big-uns are undeniable! Hats off to you!

Mission accomplished.I think this is the happiest I've been for someone I've never met before.Been watching from the start.Good luck fishing the pros.

Ben we all knew you had it in you! Not only did you win a derb and get into the classic but you also made the elites. In your first year fishing the opens. The 308 & 402 are rooting for you my man

Congratulations on making the Elite series!!!!

Really hit all the feels in this one. So proud of you to make it to the elites. Life changing stuff. AND got a little prof in the intro… awesome.

I already know what happened, honestly I couldn’t be happier! I’ve been waiting for the videos to come out to watch the show! Congrats dude! You’ve went one time what most angler’s tried their life to do! Well deserved, keep up the fight!

Love to see a "RUclipsr" and amateur tournament angler getting it done. Learned alot about fishing big bait

Following you since the beginning journey. Much respect 🙏 🫡

What a finish man! Took some big balls to film this and bet on yourself. I figured you’d qualify just based on your abilities and how you started off so hot. Congrats man! You’re living the dream of many! You’re still the reason I only use 6th sense baits and their other products (I have had great success using all their products).

That I'm so sorry, jeez takes me back to the beginning. You're the man Ben!

Most pros sell their boat and the end of the year. You're going to have to discount yours a bunch, you used that thing hard this year and it paid off, big time!

I’ve followed you for awhile now. I’ve learned a lot from your swim bait fishing. I paint lures, and started repainting swim baits with hook rash. My son fishes with a bait that’s no less than 9 inches, and all of a sudden I’m painting lures. Glad you got in the Bass masters…I think you’ll be successful !

I love the throwback music at 0:30 that was the old outro I believe

Congratulations on making the eleites an the classic 2 major accomplishments i cant wait to see the videos from them! Ive been watchong you before the move to texas an followed your journey. You are an inspiration to what a fisherman should be you help others as much as possible. You spread information no one else is giving out. I hope you crush it on the classic an elite series i will be rooting for you every tournament!!

It has been awesome watching you from the beginning of your RUclips career “the roots” to where you have gotten to. Keep up the great work!!!! Been subscribed since the beginning and have enjoyed every video.

Proud of you dude! Can’t wait to meet you at the Classic. Do your thang chicken wang.

Ben, you helped inspire me during my high school tournaments and its great to hear about the opportunity for youth teams to observe your talent in person! Keep being you🤟

Congrats man...im tickled for anything that can help expose pro fishing to more folks...and you can

If people still doubt you, then they have real issues. Great season. Good luck next year. Enjoy all the videos

Would love to see how you researched and broke down Harris Chain, and other “chain” lakes. So many choices on where to begin, the Kissimmee Chain and Harris Chain can be overwhelming, especially when there’s limited time for prefishing. Great vid as usual, homie. Much love from Dale Hollow.

You done did it Milliken! Congrats! watching you set the hook never gets old. You betttttttt!!

The intro had your old outro song!!! Gotta bring it back

Lake Apopka at one time was one of the most polluted lakes in the chain. Decades of agricultural runoff basically killed the lake. But wow; the history of who frequented the fish camps that once thrived the area. Clark Gable, Al Capone and many politicians since the 1840’s.

Man that intro was 🔥!!! Nice job Coleslaw! Love watching you put it together somewhere you have never been when you need it most! When you put that much time and effort in it you got a shot of doing great things! Congrats again bro!

The area view from the drone is phenomenal! KUDOS!!

Late view, football got in the way. So stoked for you! Elites and the classic!! What a year. Coleslaw edits never miss

Congrats Ben. Hope u get the respect u deserve and have earned in the bass fishing world.

Congratulations Ben!! A well deserved honor.

Congratulations Ben for making the Elites and the Classic!!! That’s Bad Ass!

Prof in the intro👏one of the best things I learned on your channel was that dude. So cool that old man Ben 😂made the elites. Will anyone over 30 qualify again…

Did not ever doubt that you would come close or make the elites. And he made it folks. Huge congrats man can't wait to follow the elite journey

There is black n blue, chatter, swimjig, worm, punch setup! All you need!

My MAN!!! Been waiting for these to drop! Dope video my dude. Amazing year and you did it my man. Amazing to watch you and be a fan! 💜💜💜 Keep’em cummin

Great job finding fish in waters you have never fished before...Hope you do well in the tournament!

Bigelow! From my hometown, rooting for him!

Congrats and well deserved brother!

Ben looks interesting 👀 thanks for sharing 🎣 congrats on your season. Good luck at the Classic

I'm not sure about the rest of those lakes but lake apopka has some monsters. I get mad when I catch 3's there lol

Ready to see you get called up on stage by the man the myth the legend Dave Mercer himself, loved your appearance on his show as well

That looked like a productive week of prefishn Ben. Hope you do well nxt year

Cool to hear some Prof at the beginning. Congratulations MFer 🤘

Congratulations Ben

Congratulations on getting where most dream of and good luck on becoming Lip Rippin' Champion!

As a Floridian I have been checking the RUclips every dam day for this video let’s go !!!

First off. CongratuMFnlations!!! Could not be happier to watch the elites next year and looking forward to seeing you at the classic. Second, when you say you do your homework on a lake before you get there, what does that look like? How do you know how a lake fishes before you get there?

Awesome video guys! What a beautiful place! See y'all next time.

Congrats on making the elites man!!! Can't wait to watch you next year!

Can’t wait to see the tournament video that got you to the elites. Can’t wait to see the show 😁❤️💯

Congrats on the tournament🎉

Nice throwback to the 2018 outtro music from when I started watching in the intro

Let's Go Cold slaw!!! Thx for videography!!

Wooof, should of said Meow 🤣🤣 had me laughing !

You’ve definitely been an inspiration and helped improve my fishing

Great season!!! Can’t wait to see you hold up one of those blue 🏆next year! Good luck!

I'm not sorry I can't stop with a love like mine !!!!!!!!!! YES MY GUY!!!! Old time subscriber made very happy hearing that.

Congrats on the elites dude! Freekin awesome.

Harris chain looks like a fishing paradise

So happy for you and NE. !!!!!

congrats on making the elites and proving all the haters wrong 🎉

Frogs hit good in the rain in florida.. good luck..

Always love it when you upload

At 17:00 what brand glide bait is that?

I'm gonna buy some of those new Ned rig baits and you did a great job presenting them Ben and Cole

Love seeing all the hard work that goes into a tournament. I'm always wondering - why is your livescope depth reading always so off? Or can you adjust that field to show a different number?

Good luck Ben, you're fishing my old stomping grounds

CONGRATS BUBS

We believe in you Ben. You got this man. Ben for #1

How many pounds do you need to be in the top?

Yes sir! Great edits!! Congratulations Big Ben!!

I can't stop with a love like miiiiiinnnneeeee. Take me back to simpler times ehhh!

Love that old Prof mix. Sounds better with the Zark flowing😂😂!!

White fluke around them scattered pads bro for the big ones

Congrats, on your season. Sweet videos coleslaw.

Just curious how the lake of ozark finished up ?
I only saw day one and 2

Good luck 🍀

You are very good fisherman I would bet the farm you get the points you need your bad ass and a pleasure to watch

@19:35 man, oh man. They probably drive with the same awareness. " Ohhhhhhhh I oughtaa ""

Bro you are soo calm and collected while losing that 10 pounder 😅 I would have cried and broke my rod 😂😂

Congrats once again to the the nebraska ditch fisherman,.on accomplishing the what they said couldnt be done!

Between you making the classic and the elites and the Huskers with a real chance at going bowling being stuck in Nebraska sucks a lil less. GBR!

Time to smoke the boots off the elites. Well deserved and earned, brother. In the famous word of Larry the cable guy, git-r- done

You need to find out where those 10 pounders are hiding! 😊

Wow! Congrats!Longtime follower!!

Just fished the highschool series there the weekend before u. That is a tough chain😭

Congratulations on the elite berth

Good luck 🍀🤞

What is your favorite but not stupid expensive glide bait setup

Congrats on making it into the elites. Couldn’t have happened to a better guy.

Lake Apopka was a bold choice 😂 years ago there were stories on how polluted the lake was but hopefully its cleaned up. Its just ingrained in my brain as a place not to fish

Awesome work dude

Where is that shirt from? Congrats.

Best vedio since I've been following you. Wow.!! super slaw at it again with imagination. Gotta dig it. My girlfriend and I say congrats to you and the family on making the elites. Peace.

Waiting for the day you finally come to Lake Okeechobee.

Please tell me you didnt leave florida without fishing rodman reservoir. Best bass fishing around

What's up Ben, Slaw and Mfers. Been doing some Lip Rippin' recently and definitely use some of your techniques! Good shit as always! DEAL

Catch'um up Ben..
