I was there! It was the year my little brother had died back in March so to say the least mine and my family's lives were still turned way upside down. I turned 15 years old on the day of the final weigh in, August 3rd 2003. my parents took me since we're only 100 miles from New Orleans. at that time I was VERY into bass fishing. I met Shaw Grigsby earlier in the day and a bunch of other anglers. it's a precious precious memory to me.
Flippin the canes in Venice baby, what a fishery. I once lipped a 4 lb bass and when I raised her out the water a 6’ bull shark came by to take it from me. This was after limiting out in the duck blind at daybreak. Sportsman’s Paradise it is.
If anyone out there remembers the IROC series of NASCAR they need to have a fishing League like that no modern fish finders everything has to be 2003 or older gear everything and maybe even having nostalgia classic where they have to use a gear from the 70s like Roland Martin did
The announcer suggesting that the local fisherman should give up their spot for a tournament fisherman @24:30 was a little annoying to me. The everyday fisherman/consumer is the reason the sport thrives.
Anyone else here in 2024 to watch fishing instead of screen watching

You have changed the stereotype of the sport and brought in lots of new fans and fishermen. Mission accomplished Ike.

Mike was bumping an absolute classic album back then 🔥👍🏼
Love this guy! He was so young looking then.
I always love anything about fishing, i even have all of fishing game on steam
Never give up!!!
I can’t believe Roland Martin wasn’t featured more in this Classic coverage. They love them some Gary Klein though.
I was still in high school when I met this screamer....
Same here the good old days of fishing
Tommy the commentator in the background is very nostalgia... Mike Menendez with Barkley is Classic
Watching the Tom Brady stats on the bottom kinda trippy that was 20 years ago
When I watch these old ones I play a game to see if each fisherman is still fishing and it's surprising kok
