I think it's likely that you ended up miscounting vs one escaping. Running at 60 mph if a fish jumps and pushes the lid up enough to escape the fierce of the 60 mph wind would have completely pushed the lid open & it would have stayed open making it obvious what had happened. This is one reason guys use those cull tag thingy systems so you can never lose track of the number of fish you have ...

Just get some corn rows, that will really fuck em up 😂

Looking forward to wheeler, it’s fishing different. They killed all the grass so I’m assuming the fish will be deep in the ledges. I was there a few weeks ago and caught a few. Had to slow it down and fish a tube off some points, I bet they were transitioning to the middle. Anyway, I’m sure you’ll find them. I may make the trip up to my camp to check it out and maybe even drop the boat and follow a few around, just hope the wind doesn’t blow because that place is line the Great Lakes when there is wind!!

Maybe you should have used a braided hair jig or better yet, a mullet bait! LOL Keep the faith, Ben, even the once mighty Nebraska Cornhuskers are going through a rough patch right now, but it is only temporary. We are all pulling for you, Ben. Keep chuckin' and windin' and they will eventually bite, bro.

All I will say about Ben is this guy is doing it his way and his way only keep living the best life my man 🤘🤘

That sux brother! Those braids screwed you up! Lol. Keep on diggin and you'll be good!

Ben how frustrating! I’ve done something similar to that during a tournament I came back to my boat after weight in and found my fifth fish still in my live well 🤦🏻‍♂️ don’t let it get to you my brother… you’re doing great love your videos and content and the way you mix your career with family keep it up my friend

Glad to see that you don’t let the haters get to you!! If i thought by chance that me wearing a dress in a tournament would be what it took for me to have spot on the Elite’s then bigolly id wear a pretty pink one..lol

You must be getting ready to gain a lot of weight,because the way you’re fishing now is the only next big thing I can think of! Come on Ben,I’m a huge fan watching score tracker every day every tournament.this will just make victory that much sweeter!!! Get onboard the 402 express let’s hope you do well in the next one 😊

❤ it’s time to really dial in and send it ! You can do it!

It’s the slumps man, let the bad days go! Don’t let it get to you…. You’ll be back soon, happens to all the greats!

The end got me😂😂

Dumping your fish on the floor like that is douche bag move Ben!

Seems such would be a code of conduct violation: "Anglers participating in any B.A.S.S.-sanctioned event shall observe this code of conduct and the applicable rules for the specific event in which they are participating. Anglers shall, at all times, conduct themselves in a professional manner that demonstrates integrity, honor and respect toward fellow competitors, tournament staff and the general public and does not reflect unfavorably on B.A.S.S., its members, officers or representatives, tournaments or sponsors. Anglers are frequently in the public eye and are considered role models by young people; therefore, it is imperative that tournament competitors demonstrate good sportsmanship in fishing. Sportsmanship is defined as fair play, respect for opponents and polite behavior while competing in the sport. (i) Following are examples of unacceptable behavior by competitors in B.A.S.S. events that will be cause for penalties as outlined in this document... • Displays of anger and displeasure for reasons related to fishing competition where members of the public, including other anglers, spectators and the media, are present. " This kind of action should not be considered a role model for young people and would "reflect unfavorably on B.A.S.S" Just my opinion. Everyone has bad days but at least don't put this kind of stuff on KZread or other media. Again just my opinion. Wishing all the best in the future but have to act like a champion even when the cards don't fall your way.

My MAN!!! You still putting the story together and it’s amazing! Chapters in the book for sure 🌲💪🏽🌳. Keep’em cummin

maybe you need a FFFC...ya know, a forward facing fish counter...Bahhhhhhahahahahahaaa. All jokes aside, the clips with your daughter are precious bro.

Keep your head up and lines wet you got this brutha!

I love all the fishing tips he’s getting.

Remember don't forget the wacky worm plastic. Throw on bank depending on vegetation especially cloud cover will make bass strike.

The braids go CRAZZZZYYY😂

You always fail to succeed and learn from those failures to become better and successful. Confidence breeds success and you will overcome this and only get stronger from it.

The people talking about you dumping the bass out being “bad form”… news flash *we’re all allowed to have bad days* As far as the not caring for the fish on release… these people must not realize how insignificant it truly is compared to what they go through naturally. Keep up the good work brother!

Hook in the middle. Red hooks and green with red Florence flakes. Triggers them some how yes. Nebraska boy.

wasnt expecting that one, live and learn.

Different areas and barometric locations Different response. Especially when the fish has a headache. But the lateral line never lies and instinct.

I like the braids bro, hell yeah. I rock both if I need my hair out my face.

I want to see Ben out on the lake with Coach Rhule. Would be interesting to see that combo

Rocking those braids.

This would be great for the next season you should shave your head and for every cut you make you should let it grow but if you miss a cut you have to shave it again this is just and idea I think it would be hilarious 😂😂 love the vids been following you on bassmaster

So you had a misjudgements. Everyone has them most are behind the scenes and never seen in public. You choose to be out on public display for which we are grateful. One misstep is not going to make the whole season. You have plenty of water still to cover. Put you head back in the game and get them next stop. Keep being Ben and fish hard brother.

“You need more than cutting your hair my friend” 💀😂

Get your mind right! You earned the right to be there!!!! Have fun and get it done!

A talented angler with no regard for care of a natural resource.

Stay positive bro you didn't wait all this time to fall apart now. YOU GOT THIS!!!

Forget the haters. It's your hair, Rock It. Chin up! The best part of victory is remembering just how freek'n hard it was to get there. YOU GOT DIS. GO GET EM!

I hope you can have humility about it brother. I also hope you cut that hair and keep your chin up. Your work ethic is awesome. Nothing bad you might say about yourself, or the length of your hair defines you though. I think you would really make a comeback of attitude if you cleaned it up and chopped it off. I hope the best for you sir.

I think it’s going to be a tough stretch. Wheeler was on the cone up last year and then the tva killed the grass. I still caught a few two weeks ago but it’ll be completely different when they get there, smallmouth should be a player on the bluff walls, largemouth on the ledges and a few shallow fish.a tube was the player two weeks ago but that spro little John dd chartreuse and blue will be good in June. Smith Lake just sucks in my opinion but I’m not good at deep clear water, I figure ffs will be a player and anyone good with northern fish will be fine but the weights will be very low.

Ain't it amazing how easy it is when you in the moment and culled a ton and if your struggling some what.. how easy it is to forget how to count to 5 ?? Dude I have did it several times lucky I'm always over ......so far it's easier than you think to mess up i know

Dude I had such a pit in my stomach when I realized what happened.. fuckkkk

I rock a man bun every day, really don't care what anyone has to say. You keep doing you homie.

Pulling for you Ben. Hopefully Alabama treats you better and you catch them like we all know you can. #402

Good luck braids let’s go

I have never understood the see a man catch a fish throw what he is throwing pattern! Best way to get out fished every time.

If you don’t have days like this u make it look way to easy

Pretty sad to see anglers come on here just to comment on/enjoy a person's honest mistake. Definitely says something about the character of a person that would take the time to kick a dude when he is down. Probably the same a-holes that said Ben could not make the Elite series. Haters always gonna hate, that's for sure.

Braids are absolutely electric

Damn that sucks bro

I hope you don’t start doing really bad at these events and just spiraling out of control because you have so much pressure and expectations on you. You literally are introduced as the next big thing so try to keep your head on your shoulders and learn how to count! Jk mfing fan

Keep up the bad Karma. You can tell a lot about a person by seeing how they treat other living things. Also want to point out that BASS doesn't allow nets, but you can boat flip bass all day onto the carpet and evidently dump fish in the boat because your upset? What a world. 🤦‍♂

Don't you wanna grow up to be just like me

Some Samurai had a man bun....just saying

Maybe trim the hair into a Mullet. Business up front, party out the back 🍺 I had a fish die 5 minutes before weigh in with a winning bag. We cannot weigh dead fish here in Australia. Finished 7th with 4 fish….. so yeah I know how you feel mate.
