I live fairly close by where they launch.  There's about 9 zillion boats in the water, lol.

34 lb bag 

Well we got 40mph winds in my neck of the woods today so no fishing… who else is parked in front of the TV?

 

McKinney with a nice one on the ball and chain. I should really learn how to fish it. 

I think this one is over already, as far as who is gonna win. It’s a race for second.🙄

This is why MLF resets the weights. Zero viewers on championship Sunday will really make sponsors happy. 

I get that, but I think it’s not fair for the angler that’s way ahead of everyone, to start even again. It’s a matter of opinion. I find both entertaining.

Yeah I prefer it this way. Resetting just nullifies the work for the three previous days.

I gotta say, I like seeing the crankbait doing great, instead of the shaking  minnow .

What’s that bait Palaniuk throwing? 

DiPalma and Paulnek shooting the breeze while Dipalma lands an absolute donkey was great to watch.

I like seeing BP do well again too.  He got some on a swimbait too.

Dipalma borrowing a neko weight from someone was great too.

Walter's hyping up the 6 lb bag is outstanding.

Dube has Shane Gillis energy.

The only question is can someone else take the lead before Palaniuk weights his fish.

Caught it on my favorite swimbait.....the KGB 9" TSG.   

 

As Jordan Lee said in a podcast within the last year, it's hard to be the same angler you were before having kids.    I think that's what happened to BMP.    He had a family and couldn't obsess as much on the fishing.

 

Agreed it's nice to see him win another blue trophy, and he's a genuine great human being......I mean he gave the winning bait to Will Davis Jr who beat him by a couple ounces at the last event BMP should have won sans a dead fish penalty at the 2023 Lay Lake Elite Series stop.

So Megabass said it was their Big-M crankbait on Instagram yesterday but that’s them trying to capitalize on the moment and I think the bait was actually their IPX12 that is releasing later this year. This definitely wasn’t a Big-M —

Yeah BMP said on Live that it was a prototype signed by Ito or the other designer.

One of the 9s was definitely on a Big M.

He was throwing that and a Megabass Kanata. Which I think they called a Katana on the broadcast which sounds cooler.

They say racers lose a tenth of a second for every kid they have.

 

Brandon is fishy as hell. He'd be a stick in any fishing discipline he went into. I love that he is from Idaho. These guys from the Northwest and Northeast had to work extra hard to get where they are.

Well it’s getting close ! Geez  I didn’t expect this

OT: But does the voice in the live ops ad sound AI generated?

A lot of lost fish today. I think BP jinxed himself saying “this is a $100k fish” right before it came off 😓

And right as I say that he gets his 5th. 

I don't know what it is but the noise in that Heddon commercial is irritating.
