Very humbled by all the positive comments and support along this journey from you guys. Thank you so much for everything! The 3 videos from this tournament are going to be very special to watch unfold...we have a long way to go on the season but I'm so grateful for how everything has gone so far.
Just keep doing you brother,your gunna have some adversity playing this crazy game,as you know,but you have all the tools and ability to make it,best of luck buddy
Yo Ben... Wanted to say Congrats Brotha on the VICTORY and getting your Ticket into the Classic... Can't wait for the Next Vids to see how it all went down... Oh, and that Slaunch you caught in the Vid was a Freak.. Super Bad Ass Win!
don’t get no better than this buuuuuddddd, the next best thing is an understatement for you, pump out your channel a lil bit more on them mics n I bet you’ll triple your fan base this year
Milliken is a name we will hear on the tournament trail for some time to come. This guy is no b.s. what you see is what you get. And Ben can plain 'ol throw down! I've watched you since you started your TH-cam channel. So dang proud man! You deserve it!
That dude was a tool..."I'm back" real smug..."FoR WhAt?" No hi or anything, just..."cAnT hAvE tHaT oN iN HeRe" Anyway, congrats Ben. Hard work pays off and you're killing it!
I met you at Toledo town tackle Friday evening. I would’ve never to even thought I would meet you & have been following for years. Congratulations Ben!
I am so proud of you!! Been watching your vids for a while now and when I heard that you won and qualified for the Classic, I had tears rolling down my face. Last time I cried was when my brother passed. Wow, I am tearing up right now. Lol, I am kinda living through you!! Til' I get to see the next adventure in your life. Your friend Ryan Lacy. Also say Hi to Cole!!
I’ve never been so excited for an upcoming video series this is gonna be so cool to watch him record himself winning Toledo bend I know I’m nobody to you man but my kids look up to you you got us all in the bass fishing and my kids were so happy that you won just wanted to say thanks for your content and sharing all of your knowledge with us it’s really helped us learn how to fish and use our electronics
Absolutely incredible! Congratulations cant wait to watch you on tv in the Elite series… wont be long until your on there. Keep living the dream brotha!!
Remember on the last video when I said I've never waited for a fishing tournament vlog ever like I waited for the last Milliken Open vlog......well this one just blew that out of the water! Congrats bro!
I can't believe I have been watching you catching fish with a frog on those scum filled ponds in Nebraska years ago to qualifying for the Bassmaster Classic...are you kidding me!!?? I knew going to the opens was going to open up a new world of bass fishing for you. Couldn't be happier for all your success and the fact that you are staying humble is the icing on the cake! Keep it rollin Ben! Don't ever give up! (in the wizards voice).
I have been watching you for quite a while, I usually don’t comment. I’m really proud of you, because of how personal you are it almost feels like we won too. Awesome man
Really enjoyed the run down of the baits tied on before and during practice and the run down of the strategy/ conditions going into practice. Congrats well done
Ben Fricking Milliken!!! Still letting everyone know what he used and how he used those baits….you’re nothing short of a legend my man. Everyone else is usually tight lipped even after tournaments. You genuinely want everyone to succeed. They better learn to put some Respekt on ya!
Prof is fire! You are fire, Ben! Keep that jam going, keep your pace going, I will sign up to Marshal in the Elites next season to hope I get in the boat with you. Huge fan and I have every confidence you’re going to represent on every fishery you face during EQ season. Go bust that ass.
My Man thats got to feel so damn good i can say i told all the haten Mfers this would happen , but already my guy . Im happy for you man. I know you want to give the proverbial middle figure to a ton of people. Man i said in your first tourney video you are one of the best fishermen in the country and you have put alot of people on notice. sorry so long but im fired up.
Congratulations good to see family was there at weigh in, Cole slaw and you work so hard to punch your ticket, your family is top notch to support you.
Can't imagine the hours of footage Cole had to edit...great video...totally understand the accommodations you chose lol...stoked for you and can't wait to see you set open records
Congratulations Ben im so proud of you I've been watching you since you first quit your job and started doing this seen your kids grow up pretty much till now what an amazing growth and now with this win I think your dream has definitely come true keep on goin mfer!!!
This man is a hammer. knew you would win one of it not multiple trophies this year cant wait to see the rest of the journey! huge congrats man. classic bound and elite series to come
Dude you were already growing steadily, but fishing and winning this open and I would say more this year is going to blow up your channel. There are very few pros that fish the way you do and I believe you are gonna have a very successful year. Good luck and congrats on the win. Look forward to seeing just how well you do. O and thanks for the insight on your videos-keep em coming.
Bro I'm so proud of you. I've been a loyal fan for about 4 years now and I really love the tournament videos. Keep it up man you are about to live out your dreams.
Congratulations on the win and that start of your season. Hope it continues. It’s bad ass what you have done. I hope you win the 2024 bass master classic.
Let's fn gooooooooooo!!!!!! Whooooo uuuuuu beeeeet!!!!this is badass man you got me back into fishing years ago and I've grown as a angler bc of you man and to see this is just amazing congratulations Ben
This guy is unbelievable catches a double digit in practice like it’s nothing it’s crazy how good of a fisherman he is. professional anglers Fish for 30 years five times a week for 6-8 months a year and Have never caught a double digit their whole career and this guy does it I feel almost weekly
taking down my braids, hitting my vaporizer and watching this lapse is a whole vibe. Love the grind man. Life pays you back with dividends. Good luck buddy
Let’s fucking go!!!! I new you would get that dub! I watched everything I could find about it brother been waiting for your video! Great job! Do what you do you got this! You and your family stay always. Fucking love it!!!!
Congrats on the ‘W’ Ben. What an accomplishment! I was up there a few times this month on the Texas side. Weather was crazy, water came up, and we fished dirty water and crystal clear water. Caught a few sight fishing but did the most damage in dirty water. Put a pounding on the sacalait(crappie) though!
Very humbled by all the positive comments and support along this journey from you guys. Thank you so much for everything! The 3 videos from this tournament are going to be very special to watch unfold...we have a long way to go on the season but I'm so grateful for how everything has gone so far.
Just keep doing you brother,your gunna have some adversity playing this crazy game,as you know,but you have all the tools and ability to make it,best of luck buddy
Did I miss a video probably on the pay channel maybe or a upcoming video
Great video! Enjoyed watching. Looks like you ran into Mr Personality at the end. "You can't bring that in here"
Best of luck!
Yo Ben... Wanted to say Congrats Brotha on the VICTORY and getting your Ticket into the Classic... Can't wait for the Next Vids to see how it all went down... Oh, and that Slaunch you caught in the Vid was a Freak.. Super Bad Ass Win!

This may be the greatest fish story ever told. Very proud to have gotten to watch it unfold.
Amen to that 🤘
I agree!!
Man, you got that right. No Jersey, just shorts, Huskers socks, and a 402 shirt. Fisherman of the common man
Same. Glad to see good things happen to good people.
Congrats man, I'm so proud of you for showing this isn't a "youtube gimmick", you're legitimately one of the best fisherman in the country.
100% agreed
Milliken is a name we will hear on the tournament trail for some time to come. This guy is no b.s. what you see is what you get. And Ben can plain 'ol throw down! I've watched you since you started your TH-cam channel. So dang proud man! You deserve it!
It's not even surprising at this point. Ben has put in the work and continues to demonstrate he is dialed in with his techniques.
@rivermanTV, I know, right? FACTS!⚡️⚡️⚡️
Definitely DIALED! I'd say Ben is a Top 5 Bass angler on the planet....but it's a LONG season.
That dude was a tool..."I'm back" real smug..."FoR WhAt?"
No hi or anything, just..."cAnT hAvE tHaT oN iN HeRe"
Anyway, congrats Ben. Hard work pays off and you're killing it!
Wow amazing ben!🎣
I met you at Toledo town tackle Friday evening. I would’ve never to even thought I would meet you & have been following for years. Congratulations Ben!
