I think so, too!

 

All three of those guys had a busy day! 
 

I have a hard time catching one fish!

Buy a flogger, you'll catch tons

They all could use them, why didn't they catch just as much?

 

Matt Pangrac broke down the stats on Wheeler's day and it's ridiculous.  He was catching a 3.5lb bass every 5 to 7 minutes.  That's unheard of.

This Wheeler fella seems to be the real deal.

He will be the next KVD if he keeps fishing. He is only getting better. The fact that he is so young and winning on this level just goes to show that hard work can pay off. 

 

He is a future Hall of Famer for sure. 

 

The other cool thing is, he is from Indiana originally. About 30 minutes south of me. He cut his teeth here locally where bass fishing is mediocre at best. Now he is on top of the fishing world!

It's probably the Googan Baits.

Thank God for grocery stores or you and the family would starve to death.

Nah, I have plenty of fat reserves! ?

 

Plus there’s plenty of grass, bird food, and a whole lake full of weeds to eat. Since you’re a hipster wakeboard guy now you should know aquatic vegetation is the new food craze. ?

Just because I'm a doucehbag doesn't mean I enjoy salad.

That’s great, awesome angler, nice guy and puts out great content. I was actually up near the St Lawrence River for a week (Canton NY) for work but to my dismay, fishing is illegal in St Lawrence County until bass season opens up. In other words, there is no catch and release season on the St Lawrence River. I literally left the day before bass season opened.
